Baked Garlic for Two
Adapted from Garlic, Wine and Olive Oil: Historical Anecdotes and Recipes by Thomas Pellechia (Capra Press)

February 2006

honey walnuts

Black Mission fig tart

Chiles Rellenos Gratin

Honey Oatmeal with Spiced Pears

Basic Basil Pesto

Dark Chocolate Tart

Grilled Tuna Steaks

Endive Salad with apples

MIxed Winter Squash Soup

Easy Oyster Stew

2 large garlic bulbs
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons water
Garlic baking clay (or other stone/clay baking device)
Crispy bread
2 tablespoon sweet basil

Preheat oven to 350°F. With a sharp knife cut each garlic bulb, horizontally, so that you clip off about half an inch from the top (you are making a pot cover out of the top of the bulb). Drizzle water into the openings of each clove, followed by a drizzle of olive oil into each clove. Put the tops back on the bulbs and place the bulbs into their baking clay and then put them into the oven for forty-five minutes.

To eat the baked garlic, take the top off, pop the cloves out of their skins and spread them on crispy bread; sprinkle with basil. When baked, garlic takes on a combination sweet-nutty quality.
