Recipe
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut 1/2-inch from the top end (opposite root end) of each garlic head, exposing cloves. Remove any loose papery outer skin. Place garlic, cut side up, in center of a 10-inch square cut from a double thickness of heavy aluminum foil. Bring foil up around the garlic bulb to form a bowl. Sprinkle garlic with rosemary and basil over bulb and add 1 Tsp. olive oil and 1/2 tsp. butter on each bulb. Close the foil completely by twisting the tops and place in oven under medium heat or on rack of uncovered grill for 30 minutes. This may all be prepared 8 hours in advance, cover and chill.
Melt Roquefort until creamy and serve by spreading cheese on the slices of bread and put garlic cloves on top with fork. Prep: 15 minutes Cook: 30 minutes Serves 6 or more
