Instructions
Roast the garlic
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C or 400 °F. Cut the tips off the head, exposing the ends of the cloves, so that it's easier for you to peel them later.
- Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and black pepper and wrap each head in a piece of aluminum foil.
- Roast for 35-40 minutes until tender and aromatic. Let it cool and peel. Store it in a glass container or jar with olive oil in the fridge for up to 10 days.
