1
Prepare Garlic Confit
In a small saucepan, combine garlic cloves and olive oil. Heat over low heat and simmer for about 40 minutes, until garlic is soft and golden. Remove from heat and let cool.
2
Roast Marrow Bones
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the marrow bones upright on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 15-20 minutes, or until the marrow is soft and begins to pull away from the bone.
3
Make Balsamic Gastrique
In a saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until thickened, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
4
Prepare Baguette
Slice the baguette into 1 inch thick slices. Optionally, brush with olive oil and toast in the oven until golden brown.
5
Assemble and Serve
Spread garlic confit on toasted baguette slices. Place roasted marrow on top and drizzle with balsamic gastrique. Serve immediately.
