To prepare roasted garlic, begin by carefully removing the papery outer layer of the garlic bulbs, revealing the individual cloves within
Next, slice off approximately ¼ to ½ inch from the top of each clove, following the example shown in the accompanying picture
Place the cut garlic cloves onto a sheet of aluminum foil, and generously season them with olive oil, salt, black pepper powder, and dried rosemary
Once seasoned, wrap each garlic head individually in aluminum foil, repeating this process for any remaining garlic heads
Arrange the wrapped garlic heads in a baking pan, ensuring they are properly spaced
Proceed to bake the garlic in a preheated oven set at 400℉ for approximately 30-40 minutes. During this time, the garlic will soften, develop a golden hue, and caramelize
Once the roasting process is complete, remove the garlic from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, carefully unwrap the foil
Roasted Garlic can be served as a topping for bread, added to stews and soups, mashed potatoes, garlic bread, or to enhance sauces, garlic aioli, and various other side dishes
