To Roast Garlic: Slice off the top quarter or so of 2 heads of garlic to expose the cloves. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Loosely but completely wrap each head in a piece of foil and roast in a preheated 400 degree oven until garlic is very soft and lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
