Easy Roasted Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place garlic in a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and cover with foil. Roast until soft, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool. Squeeze cloves out of skins. Whole cloves can be stored, tightly wrapped, in the refrigerator up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange heads of garlic on a baking sheet. Sprinkle garlic with olive oil. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour, when the garlic is soft and squeezable, it is ready. Remove, let cool, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Remove the loose, outer layers of papery skin from the garlic bulb.
• Slice off the top of the bulb, about 1/4 - 1/2. Cut enough to expose the top of the cloves but still leave the bulb intact.
• Tear off a 12-inch square piece of foil, place the garlic bulb in the center and drizzle it with a Tablespoon of olive oil.
• Bring the edges of foil up and around garlic, wrapping tightly, and bake in the oven at 325° F for 35 minutes.
• Remove packet and carefully unwrap garlic.
• Squeeze each clove of garlic out of it's skin and use as needed or store in a zip-top baggie in fridge or freezer for later use.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using a serrated knife, slice off top quarter of garlic heads, exposing as many cloves as possible. Arrange garlic heads, cut side up, in an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish (make sure garlic heads sit flat).
• Season garlic with salt and pepper and sprinkle with thyme. Slowly pour oil over each head, letting it soak into and around cloves. Cover dish tightly with foil and roast until cloves are golden, completely soft, and begin to protrude slightly from skins, about 1 hour. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
• From the bottom up, squeeze each head to push out cloves (peel skins from any completely enclosed cloves). Transfer garlic and cooking oil to an airtight container. (Garlic will keep, refrigerated, up to 2 weeks.)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Cut about a half inch off the top of the garlic bulb.
• Place the bulb in a small baking dish. Drizzle the top with the olive oil.
• Cover the dish with aluminum foil, and bake for 1 hour.
• Set the butter out to soften as you put the garlic in the oven.
• When the garlic is done, let it cool enough to handle. You should be able to just squeeze the cloves out of the husk.
• Put the softened butter and the garlic cloves in a mixing bowl, and mix together until thoroughly integrated.
• To store, scrape the mixture onto a piece of parchment or wax paper, roll into a fat, sausage shaped log, and the twist the ends shut.
