Garlic-Infused Oil
Ma Nourriture
Garlic-infused olive oil is the perfect way to get your garlic fix in garlic-y mushrooms (my favourite) and meals. We recommend using this FODMarket →. It's tailored to sensitive tummies, specifically to the allium family. Read more about garlic's dark side.
Why is it tummy safe?
The fructans present in onion or garlic that cause the digestive symptoms (belching, cramps and bloating, etc) are not soluble in fat but the compounds that give the taste are! This means that when garlic is left in oil for a period of time, the taste is released while the actual fructans that hurt you are sealed in.
Garlic- infused olive oil can be used in lots of great ways
In the pan:
Grill chicken breasts or salmon fillets
Sauté mushrooms with it
Light and garlicy:
Top your salads with this instead of olive
A dash on crackers with lettuce & grated cheddar
