Hiya! Here it is the first "just a tip" of 2014 and its my new favorite. Next time you roast potatoes, squash, a chicken, whatever you might roast - throw a few whole cloves of garlic on the pan. They'll roast too - getting all mild and sweet - and then you can save them for later use.
Roasted garlic is delicious whipped into butter, smeared on garlic bread, but its also really love in a vinaigrette or in pesto. For all you mamas - roasting garlic makes it much more mellow - so you can add it to pasta and your toddler might still approve* and you'll enjoy the extra flavor.
*(I make no guarantees when it come to toddler and food: My pancake loving toddler turned them down this morning, sigh.)
Great Tip!! and the whole toddler eating war (yes i called it a war) is a battle that I lose everyday..
ReplyDeleteThanks! And what is the deal toddlers? They make no sense.
DeleteYummy, I'm drooling over my computer and I already ate lunch! I love garlic in everything (minus my breath :P)
ReplyDeleteRoasting the garlic totally helps with that, umm, pungent breath thing.
