Preparation
Step 1
To roast the garlic, simmer the peeled cloves in a small saucepan with olive oil for 15-20 minutes over low/medium heat. This gives the garlic a roast-y flavor and results in garlic infused olive oil.
Step 2
Puree all ingredients except rosemary in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add more oil or water as needed. Stir in the rosemary as the blender might not blend the tough pieces well.
Step 3
Serve with warm naan, apple slices, crackers, carrots, wheat toast, roasted vegetables, pita bread, and/or anything in the world.

Chef's notes
Roasted garlic provides a soft depth of flavor, unlike raw garlic which can be overwhelming.
Roasting garlic by simmering it in olive oil is an easy and quick method, producing both roasted garlic and garlic-infused oil.
