One of the easiest and most delicious ways to use garlic raw is to make a simple dressing. This dressing can be used not only for salads, but also to marinate chicken, shrimp, potatoes, you name it!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice (can also use zest if it's an organic lemon)
1-2 cloves of garlic, pressed
1 Tbsp dried oregano or thyme
1 tsp sea salt and a pinch of pepper to taste
Place all of the ingredients in a mason jar, and shake. Use immediately on any salad, or roasted veggies. You can also use this mixture as a marinade. Can be stored in the fridge for up to 7 days, simply take out and thaw out the oil because it will harden.
