2. Prepare Garlic: Take the individual garlic cloves and gently rub them with olive oil. Place them in a small ovenproof pan, and don’t forget to season with a pinch of salt and pepper. 🧄🔥

3. Roast Garlic: Cover the pan with aluminum foil, sealing in the flavors, and roast in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes. Keep an eye on them; you want the garlic to be soft and lightly browned when done. 🕒

4. Peel Garlic: Once roasted to perfection, allow the garlic cloves to cool slightly before peeling them. This step should be easy as the cloves will practically slip out of their skins. 🧅🔪

5. Prepare Sauce:

   • In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the roasted garlic, diced onion, and white wine. Bring this flavorful mixture to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
   • Let it simmer gently until the liquid has reduced by three-fourths, intensifying the flavors. This typically takes about 10-15 minutes.
   • Now, pour in the luxurious heavy cream, and let the sauce simmer gently for an additional 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. 🍷🥣

6. Season to Taste: Once the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, it’s time to season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Be mindful of the salt as the garlic already adds a robust flavor. 🧂🌶️

7. Puree: Transfer the sauce to a food processor and blend until smooth and velvety. This step ensures a creamy texture that coats every bite with luscious flavor.

8. Chill and Serve: Your Roasted Garlic Sauce is now ready to be enjoyed! For optimal flavor development, you can prepare it up to two days in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Before serving, allow the sauce to come to room temperature for the best taste experience. 🥄❄️
