Creamy Caramelized Garlic Dressing

Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 2 heads garlic
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 2 cups plain yogurt

Recipe

• 1 separate the garlic cloves from the heads.
• 2 take a saucepan and heat to boiling the water; add the cloves of garlic and simmer for about 1 minute- drain, peel the garlic (which should be softish and should peel easily) and set aside.
• 3 melt the butter and olive oil together in the saucepan; add back in the peeled garlic and sauté over low for 10 to 15 minutes, until they're a creamy yellow color and are very tender.
• 4 using a food processor, whir together the cooked garlic and remaining ingredients, scraping down the sides occasionally, until the desired textured is reached.
• 5 note: keeps tightly covered in the fridge for about a week; also, you can substitute 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil for the tarragon, for a different flavor.
• 6 note#2: recipe can be stretched by adding some (perhaps 1/2 cup) of silken tofu, too.
