How to Make Roasted Garlic Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Drizzle 1 whole head of garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place in a small oven-safe dish, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and roast for 45 minutes, or until garlic is soft and lightly browned.
  4. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.
  5. In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the roasted garlic, 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion, and 1/2 cup dry white wine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the liquid reduces by three-fourths (about 10-15 minutes).
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in 1 cup heavy cream, and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  7. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
  8. Transfer the sauce to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth and creamy.
  9. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve for an extra-smooth texture (optional).
  10. Can be made up to two days ahead. Store covered and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.
