Instructions
Roast the Garlic
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cut the top off of the garlic head, exposing the cloves. Remove any loose papery skins.
- Place garlic head on a square piece of foil large enough to wrap around it fully, or in a small cast iron cocotte. Drizzle garlic with olive oil and season with a pinch of kosher salt.
- Wrap the foil around the garlic to seal, or place the lid on the cocotte. Bake for 40-60 minutes, until golden and caramelized.
- When cool enough to handle, squeeze garlic cloves from their skins and chop finely.
Make the Sauce
- In a medium bowl, stir together sour cream, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped garlic cloves. Mash some of the chopped garlic with the back of the spoon as you're mixing.
- Stir in thyme, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours for the flavors to develop. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper before serving.
Notes
- For this sauce, I use refrigerated, jarred "prepared" (or "pure") horseradish. Read the label before buying on this one; it should be simply packed with salt and vinegar. Shelf-stable varieties contain other ingredients and flavoring agents, and will not produce the same results in this sauce. (Read more in my Prepared Horseradish guide.)
- Heat levels can vary significantly by brand, so adjust the quantity as needed for the horseradish you've purchased.
- The sauce's flavor will not be at its most prominent when first mixed but will develop as it rests. If you prefer a milder sauce where the roasted garlic is the more prominent flavor, reduce the prepared horseradish to 2 tablespoons.
- For easy entertaining, you can roast the garlic up to 5 days in advance and store, wrapped, in the refrigerator.
