My girlfriend loved the one I had, but it was not as cute so I got it for her birthday. She told me she enjoyed the fast cooking of garlic and she thought it was easy to clean. Thank you Amazon for making my friend happy.

Very simple terracotta roaster but should be useful. I bought it for my daughter.The only reason I took off one star is the glazed base has a scratch in it about a cm long and the steam holes are a not smooth at edges.

A bit tall for a toaster oven- cooks the garlic perfectly each time. The coating inside keeps it from sticking.Love this!

I've purchased this little gem several times and reviewed it several times. I discovered the beauty of roasted garlic from my vegan/lactose intolerant/organic/non GMO/gluten free friend about 8 years ago. Since then I've become the resident black Gordinia Ramsey. I roast garlic twice a week in this little baby. I've found that the perfect consistency happens when you roast it face down in the oils and spices for 15 minutes (cold oven set to 375), flip it upside and coat with another dose of oil and roast for another 25 minutes. It comes out like butter and it's so flavorful that you cut down on the use of sodium products (salt, Mrs. Dash etc.). Big garlic bulbs require more tuning to the timings but those tend to last the longest. And when i'm done with the garlic I take more oil, pour it into the base (which still has bits of flavor and spices from when the garlic was face down) and put it in a separate jar. Voila - infused olive oil. For gifts I usually give a little jar of the infused oil with these same instructions with the garlic baker. It's also a great housewarming gift. YOU'RE WELCOME

If you've roasted garlic by other methods you may have been put off by some parts of the clove burning (even if a touch of that is really tasty) while other parts of the clove were still hard and spicy. This baker eliminates that tendency by creating a much more even environment for the garlic to roast in and prevents the garlic from drying out too quickly.This is very easy to use. Just peel the excess skin off a bulb of garlic, cut the tips off the cloves with the bulb whole (one cut across the whole bulb is fine), lightly coat the garlic in olive oil, place in the baker, and put in a hot oven (you will want to experiment on the exact temp but start at about 350-400 and go from there). Around 45 minutes later you have a truly amazing ingredient. Just make sure to cook up plenty because once you have it you will want to eat some straight (it's MUCH more mellow than raw garlic), put it in mashed potatoes, tomato sauce, mash it up to spread on crackers, all sorts of stuff.For a really special treat put some olive oil at the bottom of a small sauce pan on medium-low heat with some parsley, basil, and oregano (start with about a 3-2-1 ratio) or sage and rosemary and a pinch of red pepper for about 2-3 minutes to infuse the oil with the herb flavors and then coat the garlic with that oil to roast.You will be amazed at how gourmet your dishes taste. You can even roast it on the weekends and freeze it for use during the week. You can either freeze it whole or mash it into ice cube trays (remember it's much less potent than raw garlic) but either way use some extra olive oil to protect the garlic from the freezing.
