Lower heat and simmer until garlic softens and liquid starts to thicken, about a half hour. Cool to room temperature and let marinate for at least a half hour before serving. Can be stored refrigerated for about 3 weeks, but bring back to room temperature to serve.

Try this as a sauce over grilled vegetables. Especially good on roasted eggplant. Vegetable relishes are a delight as a baked potato topping.

For an interesting sandwich spread or dip, drain a can of your favorite beans and mix with ˝ C relish.
