* Ingredients

 - 1 or 2 heads of garlic
 - Two tablespoons of olive oil

* Directions

 1. Preheat oven to 400°F
 1. Remove papery skin, keeping head intact
 1. Chop tops of cloves off (to ensure cell walls are damaged and
    garlic flavor can develop)
 1. Put onto a piece of aluminum foil and drizzle a tablesoon of olive
    oil on top of the cloves, making sure it soaks into cut
 1. Turn the foil into a pouch and roast in a preheated 400°F oven for
    an hour

* Notes

The roasted garlic bits keep for a few days in the fridge so there
isn't really any reason to roast less than a full head of
garlic. Obviously you can throw some spices in if you want, but I
usually just roast the garlic because I use it in heavily spiced
things anyway. Don't try to roast more than two heads worth of cloves
in a bunch, but naturally you can throw a bunch of pouches into the
oven if you have a need for an absurd amount of roasted garlic.
