Peel the garlic cloves, cut them in half, and remove the germ.
Blanch the garlic in boiling water until tender.
Remove the garlic from the water. Add salt to the boiling water, then add the spaghetti and cook until al dente.
In a blender cup, combine the blanched garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, a ladle of hot pasta water, salt, and black pepper. Blend until silky smooth.
Pour the blended garlic sauce into a wide pan. Add the cooked spaghetti and toss until perfectly coated.
Plate the pasta, pour any remaining sauce over the top, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Cook it hands-free.
