Ugly or not, once slow roasted, this garlic will taste beautifully smooth and sweet.
1 head garlic, ugly and a bit shriveled is fine
1 teaspoon olive oil
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Cut a small slice through the top of the garlic, so that the cloves are exposed. Place the garlic on top of a small sheet of aluminum foil and drizzle the top with the oil so that it seeps down between the cloves.
Wrap the garlic in the foil and roast for 45 minutes, until the center is easily pierced with a knife. Slather on crusty bread, crackers, or roasts.
