Roasted Garlic Paste (Reference)

Prepare several heads of garlic on a baking tray, drizzled with a small amount of neutral oil, and either wrapped in foil or with the oven set to 50% steam injection. Place in a preheated oven at 145-150°C (290-300°F) Depending on the size of the garlic, check the texture after 30-40 minutes. It should be completely soft and smell delicious. If not soft, continue cooking and checking every 5-10 minutes. Once ready, removes the roasted cloves from the skin, and weigh the total.
