Balsamic Roasted Garlic - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups peeled garlic cloves (from about 3 heads garlic)
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
Spread garlic over a small baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, water, and pepper together; spoon half of the vinegar mixture over the garlic; toss to coat.
Bake for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the remaining vinegar, mix to coat, and bake for 10 minutes.
Stir and return to oven for a final 10 minutes; the roasted garlic should be soft, with a burnished brown glaze finish.
Store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Bring to room temperature and stir before using.
