Step-by-step Guide

Preparation

  • Roast the head of garlic in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes, until they are soft and the skin is slightly charred. Then, allow to cool and peel the garlic.
  • Blend the roasted garlic with an immersion blender until a smooth and homogeneous paste is obtained.
Recommendations & Tricks
  • When toasting almonds, do so over medium-high heat and stir constantly to ensure they do not burn, as this would affect the final flavor of the sauce.
  • To ensure that the roasted garlic is soft and aromatic, wrap it in aluminum foil with a bit of olive oil before placing it in the oven.
  • If you want to preserve the sauce for a longer time, store it in an airtight jar in the refrigerator. Although it is best consumed fresh, it can be kept for about 3-4 days.
