Roasted Garlic

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Trim the top ¼ inch off the top of the garlic bulb.

Step 3

Place the garlic cut-side up on a piece of foil, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Tip: I like to use a small baking dish or ramekin to help the garlic sit cut-side up.

Step 4

Wrap the garlic in the foil and roast for 40 to 60 minutes or until the cloves are deeply golden brown and tender.

Step 5

Use in any recipe (like mashed potatoes or cauliflower mashed potatoes) that calls for roasted garlic. It also freezes well.
