Roasted Garlic

SERVES: 2

COOK TIME: 1 Hr 30 Min

Warm, buttery smooth roasted garlic makes an amazing spread for bread or crackers, and a flavorful mix-in for mashed potatoes, pasta, and so much more. Our easy instructions will have you wondering why you never tried this before!

What You'll Need

1 large unpeeled garlic bulb
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/8 teaspoon coarse (kosher) salt

What to Do

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Cut garlic bulb in half crosswise (horizontally) and place on a piece of aluminum foil. Lightly sprinkle cut sides with oil and salt. Put the two halves back together and wrap tightly in foil.
Bake 1-1/2 to 2 hours then open warm bulb and use as a spread in place of butter.

While our mouths are watering, why not throw together a delicious Caesar salad as a go-along!

Notes

Minced Garlic in No Time

Separate a clove of garlic from bulb and peel it; hold end with your fingers.
While holding end of clove, on a plate or in a shallow bowl, rub garlic with tines of a fork, sort of mashing it. That's it!

I absolutely love the videos you make to do the simplest of things including this roasted garlic, and the additional tips I pick up along the way like how to separate a whole bulb by just pressing down hard on the top. I NEVER KNEW THAT! I was always pulling the cloves apart separately. And now how to use the tines of a fork to mince it. Who knew? Love your newsletter. Don't ever leave me!!
