Recipe for Roast Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic is included in "The Davis Farmers Market Cookbook” by Georgeanne Brennan and Ann M. Evans. Late June and early July, when freshly dug garlic starts showing up at the market, is the best time to make this dish. "You can identify fresh garlic by the thick, still-moist stalks and the not-yet-dry skin of the bulb," they explain. "The cloves are pure white and full of flavor yet mild, and they are the traditional choice for this seasonal dish. The unpeeled cloves and full heads are roasted along with the chicken and then served with toasted bread at the table."The Davis Farmers Market Cookbook
