Ingredients
- 4 large heads garlic
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon herb vinegar
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Remove the outer papery skin from garlic head. Slice off the bottom of garlic head (largest end) and separate the cloves, leaving the outer skins in place.Â
- Put the cloves in a shallow baking dish, and drizzle with olive oil.Â
- Bake for about 20 minutes until the garlic is soft.
- Cool and remove the skins.Â
- In a food processor or blender, add garlic, pepper and vinegar. Process 30 seconds or until almost smooth, scraping sides occasionally. You can also mash by hand.
Helpful hints
- Suggested uses for roasted garlic: use roasted garlic alone as a spread; add to recipes to add a mellow garlic taste; add it to mayonnaise, salad dressing or bread dough; mix a little olive oil to the puree and add it to hot pasta with chopped basil; mash garlic with cream cheese and serve on crackers or bread (add fresh dill to this for a nice spread).
- An alternative way to roast garlic is to slice 1/4-inch from the top of the garlic head and leave the cloves intact. Bake until garlic is soft enough to easily squeeze out from the head.
- Vinegar acidifies the garlic to help preserve it. For safety, throw out homemade garlic products after 10 days.
