Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Slice tops of garlic heads to expose

cloves. Brush lightly with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Place on ungreased baking

sheet and roast for 20 minutes. Let cool slightly, then squeeze heads to

extract roasted cloves without peel.

Place garlic into a blender or food processor. Add walnuts, remaining

pepper.Serves 6.
