SO HOW'D IT GO?
I LOVE roasted garlic! I usually roast it with a little salt as well.
If I have an afternoon where I don't have to 'talk' to anyone I'll slather a teeny tiny bit of olive oil on thinly sliced baguette bread, toast it, and slather it with the still warm roasted garlic. (Topping the teeny pile of goodness with a tiny drizzle of balsamic vinegar it delicious as well.)
I've been known to be intolerable to be around for nearly two days thanks to this delicious concoction! :D (People ASSURE me it's due to the garlic! LOL)
