All Sorts of Dishes Flavored w/ Roasted Garlic

You've roasted your California grown garlic as we showed you in the Avanti Roasted Garlic blog, and now you're flush w/ flavor.  Now it's time to figure out what to make with it.  Let your culinary imagination rip.  The possibilities are endlessly delicious.
Let's start at the very beginning.  These deep golden roasted orbs can be squeezed into almost everything.  Let's take a tour of recent Avanti roasted garlic creations.
Focaccia pizzas are a natural.  Ancient grain Kamut crust rubbed w/ roasted garlic cloves and garlic oil and topped w/ herbs, organic cherry tomatoes, goat cheese and baby greens.  
The complimentary rich texture and sweet nature of avocado & roasted garlic cloves makes for an extra special guacamole.
Organic cherry tomatoes and shichimi finish the flavors.  We used Avanti Roasted Garlic Coconut Spread on the tortillas and crisped them up in a 375 oven.  
An extra exotic salsa verde.  The silky sweetness of roasted garlic plays against bitter dandelion greens, feisty cilantro & the mighty Bhut Jolokia HOT chili to stand up to the perfection of sake steamed golden beets w/ anise seed, black Hawaiian sea salt and coconut roasted garlic baby organic greens & shallot.  That's fancy food!
Zippity zing lime tomato dressed Yukon gold potatoes w/ roasted garlic, garlic oil and basil blossoms.
Avanti Ringo Rock Star apple HOT sauce brings the flavor to this crispy Korean noodle cake served w/ roasted garlic, citrus & golden beet summer herb gastrique
There is not a risotto, grain or bean dish that doesn't love some roasted garlic stirred in.  
This sweet and savory organic egg scramble has whole roasted garlic cloves in the egg mix.
And finally a crispy rice organic tofu stir fry.  Tofu loves roasted garlic.  It soaks up the flavor and their textures compliment each other mighty fine.  


Now it's your turn.  Make some roasted garlic magic and post your creation photos on our twitter and tag us on instagram and pinterest.
