How do I sautee (saw-tae) garlic?

Question

Today I got this craving for garlic and buttered pasta. So my mom told me I should sautee some garlic and put them on the pasta, but she never told me how to sautee them (I don't know if I spelled it correctly)

Answer 1

with a low heat, use olive oil and minced garlic. cook til it starts to brown slightly. stirring constantly.
If you let it go on a higher heat, it will burn and ruin the dish.
Olive oil has a higher heat tolerance than butter, which burns every easily, UNLESS you wanted a browned butter sauce. haha

Answer 2

Cut up the garlic into little pieces then put it in a pan with about 2 Tbsp of butter. Cook it on med high for a few minutes until it bubbles and looks clearer. It should be squooshy and soft when done.

Answer 3

all sautee means is to cook over low heat in something, such as oil or butter, so get some butter and put it in a frying pan then add the garlic, flip and stir it a lot til it looks done enough for you. (browned)

Answer 4

All of the above answers are correct. The best example was in the movie, "Goodfellas". The character would heat olive oil in a pan and use a razor blade to slice a glove of garlic so thin you could read through it. Add to the heated oil and let it "melt".

Answer 5

Saute. Just toss some garlic in a pan over high heat with a little olive oil or butter and stir them around for a few minutes. Very simple yet quite tasty, Bon Apetite!

Answer 6

Answer 7
