Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300F. Cut off the top of the head of garlic to expose the cloves, trimming about ¼ 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, wrap them loosely in a piece of aluminum foil. Bake until the cloves are tender and nicely browned, about 1 hour.

Remove garlic from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature. Once cool, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins into a mixing bowl. Mash well with a wire whisk. Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, green onion, vinegar, salt and pepper. Whisk until evenly blended. Refrigerate 2 to 4 hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve with chips, crudites or pieces of toasted baguette.
