👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Cut about ½ cm off the top of the head of garlic, so the cloves are exposed.
    KnifeCutting board
  3. 3
    Place each head garlic on a square of foil, drizzle a little olive oil over it and sprinkle the rosemary, salt and black pepper, wrap tightly and arrange on a baking sheet.
