True to my Italian roots, there is no such thing as too much garlic. If you, too, like garlic on your garlic, serve this roasted garlic with your next steak or veggie dish. I’ll eat this whole roasted garlic recipe with a fork myself, but once these babies are roasted and sticky, you can spread them like butter over a big steak and that’s a perfectly acceptable way to polish your fork, as well! Every pillowy clove is creamy and fork tender.
