Ingredients
Scale
- 1 whole bulb garlic
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- Dash sea salt (or kosher salt)
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400 F.
- Remove the outer paper layers from a head of garlic.
- Cut about 1/2 inch off the top of the head, exposing the tops of most of the cloves. Drizzle with 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil and sprinkle lightly with sea salt or kosher salt.
- Place the garlic in a small baking dish and cover with foil. Roast the garlic at 400 F for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the garlic is soft and tender.
- Squeeze the soft garlic out into a small bowl and mash; add to salad dressing, potatoes, vegetables, or meat dishes.
- Roast as many heads as you like. For less mess, wrap the garlic in oiled heavy duty foil and set the wrapped cloves in a baking dish.
