  We do about 40 heads at a time, and then bag and freeze for use all year. I do the roasting, wife does the squeezing out. It's nice to pull out a head whenever you want that taste, and not have to do one when needed. The squeezing out job sucks, though.

  I hit 'em with worcestershire sauce, some spicy hot oil and a bit of butter. 
  

  Any way you cook the garlic up is a winner.  Besides it really upsets Dracula so there's that.

  Growing up, my mother would sometimes serve  garlic roasted in the head (as per your second pic) in a pan of white wine and blue cheese. You’d take your piece of bread, sop up some reduced wine, scoop on some melted cheese and smear the roasted clove on. I have never seen this anywhere else and have no idea if it’s actually a thing. Such rich and complex flavours with only four ingredients - and that includes the bread. Showstopper of an appetizer, IMO, and simple to boot. 

  
  

  Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

  We’re having guests for drinks and apps tonight, so I actually reached out to my mother to see if she has an actual recipe. Will report back if she does.

  Nope. She always just winged it. If I make, I’ll try @fishlessman’s find.

  Or you are not her favorite child and she doesn't actually want to share.
  
  Remember the pizza dough guy who said he would take the recipe to his grave and wouldn't even share it with his son?
  
  

  If it is worth doing, it is worth overdoing.
  
  It amazes me, how many people do not realize how the future works.
