Caramelized Onion Roasted Garlic Bisque Recipes

CARAMELIZED ONION ROASTED GARLIC BISQUE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• Remove papery outer skin from the garlic head (do not peel or separate the cloves). Rub ½ tablespoon oil on garlic head, and wrap it in foil. Bake for 1 hour; let cool 10 minutes. Separate cloves, and peel the skin off of the cloves. Place the garlic cloves in a small dish and set aside.
• While the garlic roasts, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and leek, and cook uncovered 30 minutes, stirring often. Add ½ teaspoon salt and thyme. Cook an additional 30 minutes, uncovered, or until onion is dark and golden in color, stirring occasionally, adding a small amount of water if the onion starts to cook too fast, and scraping up any brown bits off the bottom of the pot.
• Stir the flour into the onion mixture and cook 1 minute. Add wine and broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes.
• Place the roasted garlic in the bowl of a blender, add the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and cooked onion mixture, and process until smooth. This may need to be done in two batches depending on the size of your blender.
• Pour the blended onion mixture back to the large saucepan, and add milk; simmer 8 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves and ground black pepper if desired.

ROASTED CARAMELIZED GARLIC

Steps:

• 1. There are many ways to roast garlic, this is what I do. Set oven to 350 I use my toaster oven
• 2. I try to rub off as much as the white paper that covers each clove as it will stick like crazy to the garlic when done. A few times I have removed the garlic from the shells for me it was such a waist of time and each time I have done this so much of the garlic has burned, and with out doing the smash the clove trick its so time consuming.
• 3. You can cut the top of the garlic off some will give it a splash of olive oil when its cut some will not. which ever you choose just wrap the head of garlic in foil and check on it from time to time with a squeeze, if you find it is tender then give it a look. you want just like the caramelized onions to be a dark gooey brown the photo shown could in my would be cooked longer.
• 4. When it is color you want take it out and please let it cool getting that sticky hot garlic on your fingers you only want to do once. pull the cloves apart and give each clove a squeeze or just grab the entire head and squeeze the heck out of it, I do this on plastic wrap because this is how I will store it.
• 5. I will freeze the roasted garlic when I do a full bag of it. It can be mixed into soft butter tossed in mashed potatoes, sauces soups stews anything use your imagination
