Roasted Garlic

 

Yield: 1½ to 2 Tbsp of garlic paste

 

1 whole head of garlic or more

 

Preheat the oven to 400° F.

 

Use a sharp knife to cut about ⅓ inch off the top of the whole head of garlic to expose the tops of the garlic cloves. Place the bulb inside a terracotta garlic baker or wrap it securely in parchment paper.

Bake in the oven, cut side up, for 30 to 40 minutes or until the garlic cloves are soft. Remove from the oven and open the garlic baker or parchment paper to let the garlic cool.

Remove one garlic clove and squeeze it over a small bowl, allowing the soft, roasted garlic to slip out of the papery skin. If it is not soft and golden brown, return the rest of the bulb to the garlic baker or rewrap it in parchment paper and bake for a few more minutes.

When the garlic is soft inside and cool enough to handle, squeeze out each roasted garlic clove into the bowl. It is now ready to enjoy. To give it a uniform texture, mash it with a fork or puree it in a food processor.

Tip: Roasted garlic can be stored in the refrigerator in a jar or other container with a tight-fitting lid for up to 5 days or portioned and frozen for up to a month.
