Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Remove any loose, papery, outer layers of the head of garlic, leaving the full head intact with all cloves still connected.

  2. Cut the top 1/4 inch off the top of the head of garlic to expose the tops of the cloves of garlic. Thoroughly and generously coat full head of garlic in olive oil and wrap in foil.

  3. Bake garlic in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Open foil and check if he cloves feel soft and are beginning to brown. If they aren’t, cook an additional 10 minutes and check again.

  4. Once garlic is soft, remove from oven and let cool. In the meantime, bring a large stock pot of salted water to a boil.

Chef's Notes

Storing: Let the mashed potatoes fully cool to room temperature prior to storing in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3-4 days. 
Reheating: Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring each time it stops until warmed all the way through. Or, reheat the entire dish in the oven with some foil loosely tented on top until warmed through.
