Does frying garlic kill botulism?
Chef's answer
When making garlic-infused olive oil, you need heat to kill any botulinum spores that may be present in the garlic. In other words, do NOT drop a few raw garlic cloves in some oil and call it a day. Fortunately, the risks of getting botulism poisoning are very small.
