Table-Side Garlic Paste

Ingredients

  • 2–3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • A drizzle of olive oil
  • A pinch of coarse sea salt
  • Bread, for dipping

Method

  1. 1

    Wet the plate with a little water, then add a drizzle of olive oil.

  2. 2

    Drop a peeled clove on the surface and grate it in small circles, pressing gently. The clove breaks down into a paste, not shreds.

  3. 3

    Add salt to give the paste some grip and keep going until it’s smooth.

  4. 4

    Loosen it with a little more oil, then dip bread straight into the plate.
