Roasted garlic is a flavorful ingredient made by slow-cooking whole garlic bulbs until the cloves become soft, caramelized, and mildly sweet. Originating from Mediterranean cuisine, it’s widely cherished for its rich, savory taste and versatility in dishes like spreads, sauces, or roasted vegetables. Nutritionally, roasted garlic retains many of the health benefits of raw garlic while losing its pungent bite. It is low in calories and offers a wealth of antioxidants, vitamins B6 and C, manganese, and selenium. Garlic is known for its potential to support heart health, boost immunity, and provide anti-inflammatory properties. Roasting enhances the natural sugars in garlic, making it slightly higher in carbohydrates, but the change is minimal and still considered healthy within moderation. Its softer texture and gentler flavor make it an excellent addition to many diets while delivering robust nutrients and culinary depth.
