ROASTED GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• In an unoiled, small heavy skillet, roast the unpeeled garlic cloves on medium heat, turning them occasionally; cook the garlic for about 10-15 minutes, until it's soft and covered with dark spots.
• Test for doneness by pressing a clove with a spoon- if you see small bubbles of juice bursting through the skin, remove them from the skillet.
• When cool enough to handle, peel the cloves.
• In a blender or food processor, puree the garlic with the oil, vinegar, water, salt, pepper and mustard until smooth.
• covered and refrigerated, this dressing will keep for several weeks.

CREAMY ROASTED GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and blend until smooth. I use my handy chopper.
• If the dressing is too thick, thin with more cream.
• To roast garlic - slice the top off a whole head of garlic. Place garlic on a piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Wrap up and bake at 400 for about 40 minutes.
