How to Roast Garlic

Printed from: www.grandmotherskitchen.net

Ingredients

Makes: As many as you like.

You can roast the garlic and refrigerate, then use in many other recipes to enhance the flavors.

We used two varieties as you will see in the photos.

Russian Red garlic - they are a jumbo clove, with a mild flavor

Regular White garlic - they have small cloves, a strong flavored garlic

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

2. You will need to cut aluminum foil squares to bake the garlic in. Make each square about 6-inches.

3. Cut the tops off the garlic.

4. Drizzle each packet with a tablespoon of olive oil and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.

5. Gather up the sides and close at the top.

6. Place each one into the baking pan and place into the preheated oven.

7. Set the timer for 35 minutes. Bake and when done remove to a cooling area.

8. Open each package . Let cool until you can handle them.

9. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of each individual clove into a little dish.

10. You can use right away or save refrigerated for many recipes.

Tip: The larger heads worked nicer as there was more in each bulb to squeeze out and eat.

ENJOY!
