Challenge # 7 - Elephant Garlic - Something New

I was grocery shopping and walked by some elephant garlic.  I had seen this in the store before, but never bought it until the other day.  I came home and looked it up and learned it is more closely related to a leek than garlic and had a milder and sweeter flavor.

I decided to roast it in the oven like one would garlic.

I used one large roasted clove that I smashed up and added to some spaghetti squash along with some butter and a little bit of sea salt.

It was delicious addition to the squash with a more subtle flavor than garlic. I will probably try to use the rest of the roasted garlic as a spread on some veggies.
