Although garlic is available year-round, fresh summer garlic has large cloves that are especially sweet and juicy. To preserve it, simmer the cloves with dried red chiles and fresh thyme in olive oil until tender, then pack them in the oil. Mash the garlic confit in butter and spread it on bread or slip it under chicken skin before roasting.
