Step-by-Step Instructions
To get started, the first thing I do is preheat my oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is warming up, I prepare the roasted garlic. I take a whole head of garlic and slice off the top, exposing the individual cloves. Then, I drizzle it with olive oil and wrap it in foil, placing it in the oven for about 30-35 minutes until it becomes soft and caramelized. The smell is absolutely heavenly, and it feels like a warm hug from the kitchen! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
