I just HAD to have it.

One of my all time favorite stores is Kitchen Collection in Draper.
After getting married Diego and I were shopping at Kitchen Collection to pick up some of the things we would need to complete our kitchen.
Thats when I found this.
I told Diego that I had to have it and that it would be used all the time in my kitchen.
Of course I got it and have never used it for almost 4 years.
Well I used it last night and wow I have been missing out.
I wanted garlic bread with dinner but I only had french bread.
Got online and looked up a recipe for garlic bread.
The best ones said to use roasted garlic.
Good thing I have a garlic roaster right?!?
{You can use tinfoil, so if you dont have this awesome terra cotta thingy you are fine}

 What you need:
Whole head of galic
Olive Oil
2 sticks of unsalted butter

Cut about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off the top of the garlic so you can see the bulbs.
Drizzle/cover with olive oil.
If using terra cotta dish soak top in cold water for at least ten minutes.
Place garlic in dish.
If using tinfoil just wrap garlic tightly.
Place in 400 degree and cook for about 40 minutes.

Take out of the oven and let garlic sit until cool enough to touch.
The garlic will be so soft it will slide right out of its skin.
Add to the room temperature butter.
Blend.
Use spatula to rub on bread.
Put bread under broiler until browned.

Better then anything you buy at the store!
