Roasted garlic is an easy way to take recipes for things like tomato sauce up a notch — or you can just smear it on bread for a delicious snack.

First, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Start with a fresh garlic bulb (or a few). Cut the top off of your garlic bulb. Just enough to expose the bulbs. Place garlic bulbs inside a piece of foil with cut side up and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Close tin foil to keep heat contained, making sure that the foil seam is near the top so oil doesn’t leak out. Place in an oven safe container and bake at 375 degrees for about 30-45 minutes
You know it’s ready when it’s turned a light brown and looks caramelized. It should have a creamy consistency if you poke it with a knife. Let cool. 
If you are roasting multiple cloves at once, you could put EACH bulb of garlic in it’s own foil with it’s own seasonings and oil. Then using a cupcake pan, place each clove in a separate cupcake section (imagine a foil packet in it’s own spot in the cupcake pan). I might do this next time, I think they will roast more evenly.
If you want to keep your roasted garlic, I would recommend freezing it. Squeeze out of paper shell and you can freeze in single servings or in one large bag.
pardon me for being picky, but as i understand it, the whole bulb of made up of separate cloves, not the other way around.
good recipe- thanks
