*To roast garlic: Place 12 or more peeled cloves in a double thickness of aluminum foil, toss with a tablespoon of olive oil and fold the foil to seal. Place in a 375°F oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until tender and browned. If you do not wish to roast the garlic, you may blanch it until tender in water to cover (this may be done in the microwave if desired).
