Roasted Garlic: How to Batch Roast and Freeze Garlic

The big bag is such a bargain, but what do you do with 200 cloves left after your recipe is made??

Ingredients:

  • Garlic cloves, peeled (You know, the big bag/jar from Costco)
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, toss garlic with a generous amount of olive oil – enough to coat each clove.
  2. Spread garlic cloves onto a foil lined baking sheet in a single layer.
  3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover the baking sheet with foil, making sure you have a good seal over top and around the edges.
  5. Bake at 375 degrees for one hour.
  6. Remove from oven cool (without removing foil) for about 15 minutes.
  7. Remove foil and allow to cool to room temperature.
  8. Place in a freezer bag and freezing flat. (Make sure to taste test some on a toasted baguette first though!)
  9. When you’re ready to use, just break off as much as you want to thaw, then return the rest to the freezer.
