Yes, the recipe calls for a whole head of garlic, not just a clove of garlic. But the baking makes it sweet and mild, and it adds great flavour to “plain old” mashed potatoes.

Ingredients
- 1 head garlic
- 2 pounds potatoes about 5
- 3 tablespoons butter

Instructions
- Trim 1/2 inch off the top of the garlic head. Wrap with tinfoil. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 45 minutes.
