Delicious and Easy Roasted Garlic

Say good-bye to roasting garlic in messy, wasteful aluminum foil! The Sili Gourmet Garlic Roaster from William Bounds takes the fuss out of roasting garlic. Whole garlic heads or individual cloves easily fit inside the roaster, which is made of porcelain and heat- and odor-resistant silicone. The roaster can be placed in the oven to create perfectly roasted garlic in 30–40 minutes. What sets the Sili Gourmet Garlic Roaster apart is its versatility—it can also roast garlic in the microwave, in approximately 5–7 minutes on low heat.

Roasting garlic brings out a rich, sweet flavor much milder than the sharp flavor of unroasted garlic. Roasting also causes garlic to take on a smooth, buttery texture that makes it easy to spread. Roasted garlic can make a creative substitute in most dishes calling for garlic and it is also great on its own as an appetizer or spread. Try the smooth flavor of roasted garlic in these delicious recipes.
