Roasted garlic is delicious...Doug will eat the cloves straight out of the oven. I like to use them in recipes or spread them on toasted french bread.
There are myriad of tips and pointers on the innernets about roasting garlic. I have seen suggestions of putting the heads in muffin tins topped with foil (which is a pretty neat idea, but I don't want to have to wash an extra pan).
Roasted Garlic
Several heads of garlic
Olive Oil
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
All I do is cut off the tops of the head of garlic, set them on a small piece of foil, pour some olive oil on them (enough to cover) and sprinkle them with salt and fresh ground pepper. The wrap up the foil and place them in a 350 degree oven until they are done (about 40 minutes). "Done" would be when they are very soft. You can either pull them out with a fork or just squeeze the cloves out.
Roasted Garlic is a versitile ingredient that we will be using for our next and last April recipe. Have fun experimenting with it.
