Roasted Garlic Dressing - 1g Carbohydrate; trace Dietary Fiber

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 head garlic -- large, or 2 small heads
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar -- or red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
freshly ground pepper -- to taste

Preheat oven to 400F.

Rub off excess papery skin from garlic without separating the cloves. Slice the tips off the head (or heads), exposing the ends of the cloves. Place the garlic on a piece of foil, drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and wrap into a package. Put in a baking dish and bake until the garlic is very soft, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Unwrap and let cool slightly.

Squeeze the garlic pulp into a blender or food processor (discard the skins). Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, vinegar, lime juice, salt and pepper and blend or process until smooth.

Makes a scant 1/2 cup (about 4 two tablespoon servings).

AuthorNote: Rich roasted garlic makes an incomparably flavored dressing. Try this on any salad with bold-flavored greens or ingredients. You may want to roast an extra head of garlic when you make this dressing. The roasted cloves are great to spread on a sandwich (instead of mayo) or add faux creaminess to other dressings or sauces.

To make ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
