tablespoons of the olive in a slow, steady stream, about 20

seconds, processing until completely blended. Press Off button.
Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with remaining olive oil and sprinkle
with the reserved chopped parsley. Serve at room temperature with
wedges of pita bread, toasted pita chips or vegetable crudités.

*To roast garlic, peel as many cloves as you need (it will keep
refrigerated for a week in an airtight container, so do lots to have on
hand), and toss them in a small amount of olive oil. Place them in the
center of a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and roast in a 400ºF
oven for 35-45 minutes until tender and golden. The sharp pungent
flavor of the garlic will become sweet and mellow.
