Roasted Garlic

This is a must have for all beginners and pro's alike. I love the simplicity, the smell and the taste of roasted garlic. This can be stored in the fridge to use other times. Use it in.... almost everything.

Ingredients:

• 10 medium heads garlic
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• Fresh ground black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2.  Cut the tips of the garlic off and sprinkle with pepper.
3. Arrange heads of garlic on a baking sheet. 
4. Sprinkle garlic with olive oil. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour. When the garlic is soft and squeezable, it is ready.
5.  Remove, let cool, and serve.

Use this with crackers, little round breads, mix with cheeses, in garlic mashed potatoes. Freeze some for soups or stews or roasts. Delicious.
