By: Kara Parnell Is it too dramatic to say that roasted garlic will change your life? Well, maybe. But we can confidently say that roasted garlic will change your cooking for the better! Roasted garlic is like a culinary secret weapon. A little roasted garlic goes a long way to adding an unparalleled depth of flavour, turning an ordinary meal into something memorable! Roasting garlic mellows and at the same time intensifies the garlic. The strong, pungent flavour of raw garlic is gone, and a gentle, deep, almost sweet flavour emerges. Roasted garlic is perfect for elevating the flavour of your favorite pasta dish. Throw a teaspoon or two in a pan of sauteed veggie like broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, or green beans. Spread a thin layer on top of a toasted slice of baguette for some seriously impressive garlic bread. You can store the roasted garlic in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 weeks. photo credit: fromthegrapevine.com
