Roasted Garlic Bulbs



Roasted garlic is far superior to other garlics.  It makes your pasta sauces and soups really pop.  However, if you are like me you don't always plan enough time to roast your garlic for the recipe.  But no longer!  Take an hour on a day off and get yourself set for a long while.  This is a simple way to roast a lot of garlic heads and save it in the freezer.  Pop out a clove and use as needed.  Thanks to King Arthur Flour for the easy instructions!

Ingredients

Heads of garlic
Olive oil
Salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325.  Peel outer skins from garlic head and separate the cloves.  Cut off the woody ends, then put the cloves in a bowl and toss with olive oil and salt, working it over the cloves thoroughly.  Spread the cloves on a cookie sheet and roast for 25 minutes.  Let cool, then store in a baggie in the freezer for future use or mash and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.  It's that simple.  Roasted garlic cloves for all of your recipes--just pull one out, mash, and go.
