Elephant Garlic Spread
Recipe by: The
McDougall Newsletter October 2005 Vol. 4 No. 10
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour
Servings: makes about 1 ½ cups
2 large heads Elephant garlic
2 tablespoons vegetable broth
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Separate the garlic heads into individual cloves. Discard the center stalk
section. Cut a small piece off each of the root ends and off the tops. Peel each
clove. Place the peeled cloves in a baking dish, spoon the vegetable broth over
the garlic, cover and bake for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake for an
additional 30 minutes. (Test to make sure all the cloves are soft by piercing
with a fork. If they are not soft enough, bake for a bit longer until soft.)
Remove from oven and mash with a fork directly in the baking dish, using the
broth in the bottom of the dish to mix with the garlic. Season with salt, if
desired.
Serve warm or cold as a spread for bread or rolls.
