Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marrow

    Cut the marrow in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. You should have about 2 cups of marrow ready for use.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Marrow

    In a medium-sized pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the marrow halves, cut side down, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Garlic

    In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the garlic becomes fragrant and golden, being careful not to burn it.

Blending

  1. 5

    Blend the Spread

    In a food processor, combine the cooked marrow, sautéed garlic, remaining tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  2. 6

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, stir in the chopped fresh parsley and chili flakes for added flavor and garnish.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Spread

    Transfer the garlic marrow spread to a serving bowl. Serve with toasted bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
