Elephant Garlic
Not technically garlic (it's a leek), but nobody cares because the cloves are the size of a child's fist and the flavour is gentle enough to roast whole and spread on bread. A conversation piece that happens to be delicious.

Roasted elephant garlic with bread
Roast whole bulbs in foil until soft and sweet. Squeeze the enormous cloves onto warm, crusty bread. The mildness means you can eat whole cloves without regretting it later.
