Roasted Garlic

Roasting garlic mellows its pungency and produces a delicious sweet flavor. Serve roasted garlic warm as a spread, or use in other recipes. Increase the recipe size as needed.

Ingredients

  • 1 large bulb garlic

  • 1/4 tsp. or 1 tbs. olive oil (see Method)

  • 1 tsp. butter, optional

  • 1/8 tsp. dried basil

  • 1/8 tsp. dried thyme

  • freshly ground pepper to taste

Method

  1. Heat oven to 350°

  2. For perfectly roasted garlic, cut 1/4 inch from top of garlic bulb. Remove loose outer leaves. Bulb should remain intact.

  3. Pour 1/4 tsp. olive oil over bulb and dot with butter, or pour 1 tbs. olive oil over bulb and eliminate butter.

  4. Sprinkle with basil, thyme, and pepper.

  5. Place cover on garlic baker. 

  6. For a medium to large bulb, bake for 50 minutes. For an extra large bulb, bake for an additional 10 minutes. If cooking in a microwave oven, prepare bulb as directed and cook on HIGH for 1 1/2 minutes.

  7. Separate cloves and squeeze out garlic.
