TORTELLINI WITH ROASTED GARLIC SAUCE (APPETIZER)
This is a wonderful appetizer and a nice change from the usual chips and dip or crackers and spread combo. We especially loved the sauce! If you roast the garlic ahead of time, it all comes together rather quickly. I didn't heat the sauce after pureeing, just served it at room temperature. Note added 12/26/05: I agree with Marie Nixon's review that there is enough sauce for 2 packages of tortellini. I did actually make 2 packages, and there was plenty of sauce for that amount.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Cut 1/2-inch off top of garlic and remove papery outer skin, leaving cloves intact. Wrap garlic in foil and bake 1 hour, or until tender when pierced with a sharp knife. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
- Cook tortellini according to package directions (do NOT overcook, best to undercook a bit). Rinse under cold water, drain well on paper towels. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat(medium-high worked better for me). Add tortellini in batches to oil, cook and stir 3-5 minutes or until lightly golden. Add more oil if necessary. Drain on paper towels.
- Separate cooled garlic into cloves; pinch each clove so roasted flesh comes out and place in blender or food processor. Add mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan cheese and hot sauce. Cover and process until pureed and very smooth. Spoon into small saucepan; cook and stir over low heat until hot and bubbly. Transfer to small serving bowl.
- To serve, arrange tortellini on serving platter. Dip into Roasted Garlic Sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- To roast your garlic, cut off the tops of the heads to expose the cloves (using a serrated knife will make this much easier).
- Place the heads in a square of aluminum foil with the head facing up.
- Drizzle with 1 or 2 tablespoons olive oil (2 tbsp for 2 heads).
- Seal the foil and roast for 1 hour.
- Let cool, and then separate heads into cloves and squeeze each clove to extract the garlic.
- Place the roasted garlic into a blender or food processor.
- Add the 1 tablespoon remaining olive oil and 1/4 cup cream and whirl until garlic is pulverized.
- Add the rest of the cream, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
- Whirl to combine.
- Sauce will be thick at this point. Set aside.
- Cook the pasta until al dente; drain.
- Melt the butter in a skillet.
- Add the pasta and toss with the butter until coated.
- Add the sauce, cook and stir until sauce becomes thin.
- Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Serve immediately with extra Parmesan cheese on top to desired taste.
- To make this a more substantial meal, you could add chopped cooked chicken or shrimp, broccoli or peas.
