Start by roasting your head of garlic. Preheat the oven to 350F. Cut the top 1/2" from your head of garlic, then place onto a large square of tin foil, with the shiny side up. Pour over 2 tbsp hemp oil and sprinkle over an ample amount of sea salt. Close the foil to create a parcel and place it onto a baking tray in the oven. Roast for 55 minutes |
