Spreadable Roasted Garlic
"Roasted peppers, whole baked garlic and chunks of Parmesan cheese start a meal beautifully. Be sure to include some good fresh Italian crusty bread to use with the meltingly sweet garlic and a cruet of good extra virgin olive oil instead of butter."

very nice. I ended up putting all the cut sides down on the foil, which resulted in some yummy hard/chewy bits in my garlic. (next time I want to spread it on bread, I'll make sure the cut ends are up). I'm looking forward to getting better garlic from the farmers market this summer--easier to cut (and bigger) than what I get at the supermarket.
