Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Trim the top ¼ inch off the top of the garlic bulb.
Step 3
Place the garlic cut-side up on a piece of foil, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Tip: I like to use a small baking dish or ramekin to help the garlic sit cut-side up.
Step 4
Wrap the garlic in the foil and roast for 40 to 60 minutes or until the cloves are deeply golden brown and tender.
Step 5
Use in any recipe (like mashed potatoes or cauliflower mashed potatoes) that calls for roasted garlic. It also freezes well.
Step 6
