About This Recipe
"I've made anything from 1 bulb to a whole bag full at one time. When I make a bag full I squeeze all the garlic into a jar then cover with olive oil and refrigerate till I need it. Which is very soon! Use as a spread on bread, potatoes, roasts, Add to butter or olive oil. Put into dressings. Mashed potatoes just love them!!!In the picture is the roasted garlic and the Roasted Garlic Spread #92370 Check out this thread http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=226006 of different versions of roasting garlic."

- 4 four inch sprigs thyme, minced
Directions
- Cut pointed end off garlic bulb & pearl onions.
- Rub olive oil on garlic and onions sprinkle with remaining ingredients.

- Use freely with whatever you desire.
- Options --.
- I remove all the garlic and onions from the skin(which you can save the skin to make a stock with)then place the garlic and onions in a container and freeze or.
- In the pan you roasted it in pour olive oil in and simmer while loosening all the bits of goodness from the bottom of the pan. Cool the oil then top the garlic and onions. Refrigerate to use on everything.

"This is exactly the way that I make my roasted garlic. Sometimes when I'm feeling adventurous I even add some rosemary. Good stuff."

"Bought the garlic in bulk and loved the smell when we opened the foil up after baking. Squeezed out the cloves and used the garlicky paper skins in a chicken broth preparation with bones and vegies for added flavor."

"this was great! I made some homemade herb rolls and we had them with this tonight. I was inspired to find a recipe after having roasted garlic in a restaurant, and this recipe fit the bill. SO easy, yet impressive."

"This is the method I use for roasting garlic! I also buy in bulk and I usually throw the wrapped bundles in the oven when I am roasting a chicken or a roast so the oven works double-time for the price of one. Instead of unwrapping the garlic, I cool the packets to room temperature while they are still wrapped and then store the packets in the veggie drawer of the fridge until I am able to use them. Works out great!"
