Peel the garlic and puree it with the salt. Transfer to jars with screw-top lids and cover with olive oil to preserve the garlic. Store in a dark place. After about two days, the mixture will turn greenish due to the salt; this is normal. Store opened jars in the refrigerator. 1/2 teaspoon of the paste is roughly equivalent to one garlic clove. Always add salt to your dishes at the very end. For true garlic fans, this is a delicious side dish for steak.
