Roasted garlic - gunst

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Heads garlic, (large heads), unpeeled and left whole
1½ tablespoon Olive oil
1 tablespoon Thyme, chopped fresh; or 1 teaspoon dried
1 tablespoon Rosemary, (fresh)chopped; or 1 teaspoon dried
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the garlic in a small roasting pan or ovenproof skillet and drizzle the oil on top. Sprinkle with the herbs, a pinch of salt, and a generous grinding of pepper. Roast the garlic until soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and serve.

Squeezed cloves out of papery skins and spread on thinly sliced toast, pizza, or bruschetta; place on top of fish, beef, or poultry dishes; mix into pasta sauces or dips; or serve as side dish. If in a rush, you can cut about ½-inch off the top of the garlic head, exposing the cloves directly to the heat. The garlic will roast in 25 to 30 minutes.
