These should last for up to three days in your fridge before going bad. Roasted garlic that has gone bad may become brown, mushy, or smell rotten.
These roasted cloves should stay good for about one week in the fridge.
Be sure to place any roasted garlic that you submerged in olive oil in the fridge or freezer as soon as possible after preparing it.
Try to hold the garlic heads over a plate or other clean surface while you are squeezing the cloves out.
Once the cubes have frozen (after an hour or so), you can pop them out and place them all in a Ziplock bag together.
This method takes less time up front (from extracting the roasted cloves out of their respective casings), but does require a bit more effort at the end. When you want to use the frozen cloves, you’ll need to let them thaw completely and remove the outer peel before you can use it.
Once you’ve got your roasted garlic in the freezer, it’s so easy to grab a piece and use it as an easy, delicious seasoning while cooking later.
