These are the same instructions for roasted garlic as in our Roasted Garlic Sourdough Recipe.
1 large head of garlic
1 teaspoon of olive oil
Pinch of salt
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Slice the head of garlic in half down the center. Place on a sheet of tin foil and drizzle the olive oil over the top of both sides of the garlic. Sprinkle each side with a pinch of salt.
Loosely seal the tin foild around the garlic and place in the oven for about 30-40 minutes, until the garlic is a golden brown color and soft to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool to a point where it can be handled.
Once you can pick up the garlic with your hands, squeeze the garlic cloves out of the skin into a bowl and mash with a fork.
