Introduction

Roasted and raw garlic both find a home in this delicious, zippy (and fat-free!) dressing. It's great over greens, but I like to toss it with (hot or cold) pasta or potatoes for a side dish too.

Number of Servings: 2

Ingredients

    1 head of garlic, unpeeled
    1 tsp water
    1 clove of garlic, minced finely
    2 large plum tomatoes, chopped
    2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
    1/2 tsp dried basil
    1/2 tsp grainy mustard

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F.
Remove the papery outermost skin of the head of garlic and slice about 1/4" off the top of the bulb.
Wrap in tin foil, drizzling the water over the top, and roast (in a muffin pan or on a baking sheet) for 40 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
In a blender, combine the raw garlic, tomatoes, vinegar, basil and mustard. Puree until smooth.
Add roasted garlic and puree to blend well.
Store in the refrigerator up to 4 days. Flavour improves overnight.
