Preheat oven to 375F.

Cut off just enough of the top of the garlic bulb so that you can see the tips of each clove.

Place on a piece of foil and drizzle with oil.

Tent the foil up around it and toss in the oven.

Go back to the top you cut off and rescue any pieces of garlic worth saving for other uses.

Bake for 45 minutes, then cool.

Pick off excess skins and squeeze the roasted cloves out with your fingers into a small bowl.
