I have a friend in WV that uses roasted garlic like butter on her toast. I've never tried it but she loves it.

Get you a head of garlic. Cut about an 8th off the top, like the one in the picture. Put it on a sheet of aluminum foil with that end facing up. Drizzle a little olive oil over the Cloves and a little salt and pepper, then close the foil around it.

Stick it in the oven on 350° for 30-45 minutes. Let it cool then take the foil off and pull a clove off and squeeze it from the bottom onto a plate or a bowl. The roasted garlic comes out easily. Do that to all of them.

Then pour some olive oil over the garlic, little more salt and pepper and mash it all up with a fork or spoon. Then spread a little on to a piece of Italian or any bread.

Sounds like a lot to do, but its not. Make one and put it in the oven the next time your baking something, or put one in the grill while your waiting for it to get ready to use and leave it until you're done grilling. You've got about a 20 minute window of it not being done enough and being too done.

First time I ever ate it this way was in an Italian place in Hobe Sound north of Jupiter...bout 30 years ago.

I simmer the garlic in milk first, is that an unnecessary step? I also put it in a container and fill it with olive oil for the oven.

Thank you for sharing this with me. It's appreciated

Yes.

Why?

Simmering it or blanching it is dumb IMO. I heard about it 30 years ago and it was supposed to take the bitterness out. Umm, I like it just the way it is. Some people do it for garlic milk because of health benefits.

You can roast several heads at a time and store them in the fridge for several days, even longer and it won't go bad, it just won't taste as good. Use some for your mashed potatoes, it really helps instant if you use those. A little roasted garlic, a little cream or milk and some cheese......boon!

Good in rice too. Biscuits. Pizza. Eggs. Beans. Spinach. Makes a nice butter compound for scampi. Hollandaise, or other sauce. Almost Errthang really.
 
Almost positive that is where we did a lip sync contest.

We did 2 Live Crew. Came in 3rd behind Robert Palmer Addicted to Love and a Janet Jackson song.

We were pretty offensive, we had props.

2 Live Crew..... there’s a blast from the past. I’ve always thought they didnt get the credit they deserved as some of the early rap groups in the 80s/90s. Yeah, pretty raunchy then but not anymore. Sometimes I’ll pull up Me So Horny on YouTube to get a good chuckle
