Remove the cloves with a slotted spoon and immediately plunge into the ice water to stop the cooking process.
Repeat the process, again cooling the garlic by plunging it into the ice water. Drain the garlic and dry it well. The peels should slip off easily. Cut the garlic into slices and use as needed.
