Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Remove the outer skins from the head of garlic, leaving the skin on the individual cloves. Slice off the top so that the upper part of each clove is exposed. Drizzle a little olive oil over the cut part of the cloves, and wrap the head of garlic in tinfoil.
