200 BLOG'S POSTED!!!!! BASIC: HOW TO PAN ROAST GARLIC WITH A SIDE OF POBLANO.

Cool beans 200 recipes.

This is easy, and you can add roasted garlic to any meal.  And you don't have to use the who thing.  Pick out how ever many you want to roast.  And I threw the poblano in their for dinner.  So this is a 2 in 1 blog.  :)  You can substitute the poblano for any sweet bells or any hot pepper.   With hot pepper you eye might sting so be careful.

First acquire on whole garlic clove.    

Second smash and peel of the shafe off.  I got a really nice clove all the garlic was nice and big, their were no small bit's.   

Tip: Save all the very small and tiny garlics and put then in a dish. The next time you make soup throw them all in.  :)

Remove as much of the skin as you can, but don't remove the skin off the cloves them selves. 

Drizzle with olive oil, about a table spoon 1/2. 

With any pepper you use slice them in the same manner.     Turn the burner to medium high.  Were going to caramelize both the garlic and peppers.

Very improtant to remember.
ONE : Olive oil has a low smoking point, so even though were starting out at medium high, were going to want to turn it down to medium low.  Or if you feel things are getting out of hand take it off the burner all together and start again.  
TWO:  By putting a lid on it, the lid will create condensation which will cause the hot olive oil to spit and spatter.  If you have a screen use it.    Or just be extra careful and turn the burner down.    It's ok for it to spit and spatter a bit. 

On the garlic your looking for dark areas almost like it's dirty.   The poblano is going to look really mess up.  Burnt and very dark with green patches.  This is what we want.   When the garlic is done the poblano is done. 






Pinch on of the garlic with the prong, and use a fork to squish the cooked garlic out.   I have mastered the pinch with the prongs so I can just squeeze it out.

I put it all in the little blender and mix it into the hamburger meat.  Yummy.




Have fun.
