Roasting whole garlic bulbs is an easy and delicious method, and the sweet, soft cloves can be used in countless ways. Roasted garlic cloves are a great garnish for main courses, like roasted chicken, and can also be mashed up and added to dressings and sauces.
The classic way to enjoy these caramelized cloves is to simply spread on crusty bread, with a little sprinkle of salt, and eat as is.
Ingredients
Steps to Make It
-
Gather the ingredients.
 The Spruce -
Preheat oven to 375 F.
-
Turn the whole bulb of garlic on its side, and with a sharp knife, cut off the top third of the bulb. Be sure to cut the top (pointed end), and not the bottom (flat, root end).
 The Spruce -
Place each whole garlic on a piece of foil, about 8-inches square, with the cut-side up. Drizzle one teaspoon of olive oil over the cut surface, and sprinkle with salt.
 The Spruce -
Draw up the foil and wrap the garlic to seal (the bulbs will look like chocolate kisses when wrapped).
 The Spruce -
Place in a baking dish and roast for 45 to 60 minutes, depending on size until the garlic is soft and golden-brown.
 The Spruce -
Remove from foil and serve. The cloves will pop right out of the paper skin when squeezed.
 The Spruce -
Serve and enjoy!
