The garlic cream: a perfect condiment for Easter

The Garlic Cream is a versatile ingredient that lends itself to many dishes, especially during special occasions like Easter. With its creamy texture and bold flavor, this cream can be used as a sauce to accompany typical dishes like roast lamb with potatoes or to enrich other Easter traditional dishes. Preparing it is simple and requires few ingredients, but the result is always surprising. Let’s see together how to make it.

Ingredients and Preparation of the Cream

To make a delicious garlic cream, you will need a few essential ingredients. Here’s what you will need:

• 4-5 garlic cloves
• 150 ml of fresh cream
• 50 g of butter
• Salt and pepper to taste
• A teaspoon of lemon juice

The preparation begins with a light toasting of the garlic cloves. Peel them and, without chopping, place them in a pan with the butter, allowing them to brown over low heat for a few minutes until they release their aroma. Once the garlic is golden, add the fresh cream and stir gently, cooking for about 5-7 minutes. At this point, you can use an immersion blender to make the cream smooth. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a bit of vegetable broth or water.

Once the cream is ready, add salt, pepper, and a dash of lemon juice to enhance the flavor. The garlic cream is now ready to be used as an accompaniment to many Easter preparations.
