Roasted Garlic Puree
Added: 6th December 2006
Ingredients
- 4 large heads garlic
- 1/4 C. olive oil
- 1/8 to 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/8 to 1/4 tsp. pepper
- 1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
Directions
Chop off bottom of garlic head, and separate whole cloves, leaving tight outer covering intact. Place cloves in a shallow 8-inch square baking dish, and drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes. Cool and drain; remove skins. Roast garlic may be eaten as is or puréed for smoother texture. To purée, position knife blade in food processor bowl; add garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Process 30 seconds or until almost smooth, scraping sides of processor bowl occasionally.
