Perfect Roasted Garlic

22 min

Side

10 ingredients or less
Roasting garlic brings out its natural sweetness and reduces the sharp “bite” we get with raw garlic. This transforms it into a mellow and irresistibly versatile ingredient, adding depth and flavour to everything from dressings to pasta dishes. It’s truly a staple in our kitchen.

Ingredients

Roasted garlic

  • 1
    head garlic
  • 2 tsp (10 mL)
    olive oil

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C)*. Cut the top ½ cm off the top of a bulb of garlic to expose the cloves.
  2. Transfer to a baking tray, and drizzle on the olive oil.
  3. Roast in the centre rack of the oven for 20 - 25 minutes, or until they are lightly golden.
  4. Remove from the oven and let cool. The garlic can be squeezed from the peel once cooled.

Notes

  • * We used top and bottom heating (not fan-assisted/convection).

Oooh, this garlic on the main pic looks soo cute and innocent ; )
It's marvelous (Mrs. Maisel ;p) indeed and every since you shared a video roasting it i have to make it at least twice a month.
Haha, im sorry, looking for a quick fix to eat and spamming pul stasera.
I dont know if you ever thought of it - but as i written below- i love this simple 'dish' when i just put whatever vegetables i want to roast to the oven, add sliced potatoes, and now thanks to you, garlic, and that's it - perfect dinner !
Stay warm :)

OO, ja też! Jest wspaniały i zdrowy ;)
Nie wiem, czy moge Ci polecić, jedno z moich ulubionych dań, zaobserwowane od cioci z Włoch - do piekarnika na 200 stopni na 25? min wkładasz różne warzywa w plastrach/papryki i pomidory w ćwiartkach itd, ziemniaki; i właśnie dodałąm ten czosnek od kochanej Sadii i to jest wyśmienite; )
Resztki też nast dnia. Pozdro ;)
