Roasted Garlic

Directions

1. 1
   Smash the heads of garlic lightly to loosen but not completely separate the cloves.
2. 2
   Place on a large sheet of aluminum foil or in a small casserole with a lid.
3. 3
   Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
4. 4
   Wrap up the foil into a tight package or cover the dish and roast until the garlic is soft, about 1 hour.
5. 5
   When cool enough to handle, peel the garlic by squeezing each clove at one end so that it pops out of the skin.
