Steps:
- In an oven-proof casserole dish or pie plate, add the garlic and toss with the salt. Spread the garlic cloves in an even layer and add the olive oil until the cloves are completely submerged.
- Cover the dish with foil and transfer to the oven. Roast for 30-35 minutes until the garlic is light golden in color and very tender.
- Cool the garlic in the dish then strain the oil through a mesh sieve set over a bowl. Save the oil in a sealed container for other recipes.
- Place the cooled garlic cloves in a food processor or blender. Add 2 to 4 tablespoons of the infused oil and process until smooth and creamy.
- Add salt according to taste preference, transfer to a container and stir in the thyme leaves if using.

BLUE CHEESE AND ROASTED GARLIC DIP/SPREAD
This is the most amazing dip that is also wonderful spread on grilled steaks and burgers and also wonderful served on the side with raw veggies --- fresh garlic may be used, but be cautious only to use a small amount 1 teaspoon minced or less of fresh will do fine as it will overpower the other ingredients, I use about 1 tablespoon roasted for this, start by adding in a small amount at a time, and increase the amount of roasted garlic (fresh or roasted) as this dip gets stronger when left left to chill for the full 24 hours, so you might want to start with a small amount of garlic and add in more the following day if desired --- this is a dip I created years ago and still serve it today at get togethers it is the first to completey go so I always make a double batch --- gorgonzola cheese can be replaced with blue cheese for a milder flavor --- plan ahead this dip needs to chill 8-24 hours before using, you may adjust all ingredients to taste, if you prefer a more creamy dip increase the sour cream slightly, but start with the stated amounts, you will love this dip! :)

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Cut off the top of the head of garlic to expose the cloves, trimming about 1/4 inch off of the top of each clove. You may need to trim individual cloves along the sides of the head. Brush the cut cloves with a small amount of olive oil, then nestle the head into a piece of aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cloves are tender and nicely browned, about 1 hour. Remove, and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Once cool, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and into a mixing bowl. Mash well with a wire whisk, then add the sour cream, mayonnaise, green onions, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until evenly blended, then refrigerate 2 to 4 hours to allow the flavors to blend.
