Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Reco International Garlic Baker
Customer Review: roast whole heads of garlic
Summary: 5 Stars
Great way to cook a whole head of garlic in the toaster oven. I soak the cooker for several hours before using it to insure moistness in the cooked garlic head. The directions say to use in conventional oven but I have found directions for other clay cookers that say they can be used in the microwave. I will update my review after I have tried this method to see how well it works (or doesn't work). Would not generate the heat of a conventional oven in the summertime.
Description of Reco International Garlic Baker
The Romertopf garlic baker roasts garlic to perfection. The special porous clay allows the garlic to breathe during the cooking process and enhance the flavor.For centuries food has been cooked in earthenware pots over open fires or in brick ovens. R?mertopf carries on this tradition by crafting clay pots and dishes specifically intended for cooking a variety of vegetables, meats, casseroles, and breads in the home oven. Manufactured in Mexico, each vessel is made from unglazed and porous terra cotta containing no lead or cadmium. Before each use, the pot is soaked in water in order to absorb a certain amount of moisture into the permeable clay. This moisture is slowly released during cooking, sealing in natural juices and increasing flavor and tenderness.
Shaped like a head of garlic, the adorable garlic baker from R?mertopf is perfect for roasting garlic to be used as a spread on bread or in soups, sauces, and gravies. Standing 5 inches tall and measuring 4-1/4 inches wide, this small baker can also be used as a serving dish. Intended to be used only in the oven, R?mertopf recommends washing all clay pots by hand. Due to their porous and unglazed nature, the pots should not be exposed to extreme temperature changes. --Lea Werbel
