Roasting transforms garlic into a sweet, aromatic, buttery spread.
Heat oven to 400º F.Slice off the top of the garlic head with a sharp knife to expose the cloves. Place the garlic on a square of aluminum foil. Sprinkle with the wine, thyme, salt, and pepper. Fold foil to seal. Place in a garlic roaster or wrap entirely in more foil and bake 45 minutes. Unwrap and let cool. Squeeze the soft garlic cloves from their skins. Spread on slices of crusty bread.
