I once prepared a high-quality bottle of olive oil with premium buds using a low and slow method, and the result was incredible. If you have ever worried about vampires taking over, this recipe might just save your life—or at least upgrade your dinner. This garlic confit is savory, tender, and intensely flavorful. While you can use a slow cooker for a hands-off approach, you can prepare it much faster and with less aroma by following the stovetop directions. By applying Stoner Strategies, you can master this gourmet pantry staple, which serves as a foundation for countless savory dishes. This edibles recipe is a perfect way to keep your kitchen stocked with versatile, high-quality ingredients.

Recipe Essentials

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes

  • Cook Time: 20 minutes (Stovetop) or 8–12 hours (Slow Cooker)

  • Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

  • 3 whole heads Garlic, cloves separated and peeled

  • 2 cups Canna-oil

  • Fresh herbs (Optional: thyme or rosemary)

Directions

Slow Cooker Method

  1. Prep: Break apart the heads of garlic, trim the ends, and peel each clove.

  2. Combine: Place the garlic cloves into a small slow cooker set to "warm." Pour the canna-oil over the garlic until fully covered.

  3. Slow Cook: Place the lid on the slow cooker and allow it to cook for 8–12 hours. Stir the garlic and oil every few hours to ensure even cooking.

  4. Finish: Once the cloves are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork or knife, remove from the heat. Allow the oil to cool completely before transferring to a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Add fresh rosemary or thyme if desired. Store in the refrigerator for 2–3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Stovetop Method

  1. Prep: Break apart the heads of garlic, trim the ends, and peel each clove.

  2. Heat: In a small saucepan over low heat, add the canna-oil and the peeled garlic cloves.

  3. Simmer: Cook the garlic in the oil for 10–20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. Finish: Once the garlic cloves are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork, remove from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool completely before transferring to an airtight glass jar. Add fresh rosemary or thyme if desired. Store in the refrigerator for 2–3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Pro-Tips for Success

  • The Stoner Strategies Secret: The key to a successful garlic confit is patience. Keep the heat strictly on "low" or "warm." If the oil bubbles aggressively, the garlic will fry rather than confit, which changes the flavor profile. A gentle, slow simmer is the hallmark of a professional-grade edibles recipe.

  • Storage Safety: Garlic stored in oil is delicious, but it is important to store it in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness. Never leave your garlic confit at room temperature for extended periods. This is a crucial safety step for all your homemade cannabis edibles.

  • Culinary Uses: Use this garlic confit anywhere you would use roasted garlic. Smear it onto toasted sourdough, toss it with pasta, or use the flavorful canna-oil as a base for sautéing vegetables. It is one of the most versatile ingredients for Stoner Strategies enthusiasts.
