Ingredients
  

Roasted garlic

  • 1 large head fresh garlic top removed
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme sprigs
  • pinch of kosher salt and pinch of fresh black pepper

Roasted Garlic Compound Butter

  • 1 stick butter or 1/2 cup softened unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce low-sodium
  • 1 whole head of roasted garlic roasted garlic cloves removed from the skins.
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

How to Roast Garlic

  • Preheat oven to 375º Fahrenheit.
  • Using a sharp knife, remove about 1/4 to 1/3 of the top of the garlic head (pointed part of the garlic head) so the cloves are exposed. Place the garlic head in the oven-safe dish.
  • Drizzle with olive oil. Typically, I use about 1 tablespoon per head. However, you want to ensure the garlic head is covered in olive oil. Nestle the fresh thyme sprigs on top of the garlic head. Sprinkle with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper.
  • Cover and roast for about 45 minutes. The garlic will be done when it's caramelized to a golden brown color and is soft to the touch.

How to make Roasted Garlic Compound Butter

  • Add 1 stick or 1/2 cup of softened, unsalted butter to the bowl of a food processor.
  • Add 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce, 1 head of roasted garlic removed from the skin, a pinch of kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Pulse until thoroughly combined. Remove from the food processor bowl and place in a glass bowl with a lid or roll into a small log and tightly wrap with plastic wrap.
  • NOTE: if you don't have a food processor, use a fork and work the butter-garlic mixture through the tines of the fork. Work the butter until it looks thoroughly blended.
