I agree, roasted garlic is a terrific thing. I am fairly certain,
though, that the recipe in TTKT is for aquapatys, from the Forme of
Cury. It is boiled garlic, which, while tender and yummy, is a bit
different from roasted garlic, lacking the characteristic caramel brown
and the garlicky/nutty flavor.

Still sounds like it could be an interesting recipe and its proveably
period.
Is this boiling the head of garlic or just the cloves? I assume there
is more to it than this though, otherwise I doubt it would be in a
cookbook.
Could someone post the original recipe and perhaps a redaction if
there isnt one in the book? I dont have a copy of _To the Kings
Taste_.
Thanks.
