How To Roast A Whole Head Of Garlic Recipes

HOW TO ROAST A WHOLE HEAD OF GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Cut off the very top portion of the head of garlic to reveal a few cloves. Place garlic on a sheet of aluminum foil (large enough to wrap around the garlic in a little pouch). Nestle the herbs around the garlic. Drizzle garlic with a touch of olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Pour 2 T. of water around the head of garlic - you might want to curl up the sides of foil before doing so. Wrap the foil up into a beggar's purse or pouch making sure the foil is sealed.
• Place in the oven (directly on the rack or on a baking sheet) and roast for 1 hour. Remove pouches from oven and let cool briefly or tuck right in, taking care while opening the packages as steam might come pouring out.
• Spread the garlic on warm bread; top with a pinch of salt.

HOW TO ROAST GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cut the top off the garlic bulb, exposing the tops of the garlic cloves. Put on a small square of foil, and rub with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Scrunch up the foil to seal in the bulb.
• Roast for 25-30 mins until soft when pressed, and the papery casing is light golden. Leave to cool for a few minutes before squeezing the soft roasted garlic out of their shells. Alternatively, take off all the papery casing and remove the cloves individually.

Cover with parchment paper-lined foil; roast garlic until soft and golden, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. To store, squeeze out unused cloves into jar and add enough olive oil to cover. Store closed jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.
