Default Spanish Roja recipes

I'm hoping that someone can give me advice about Spanish Roja. I have a lot of it this year.

I really like the flavor of SR when it's raw, but I've been really disappointed using it in cooking - the flavor is so easily gone!
- Used some in roasted tomato sauce - no garlic taste detectable at all.
- Used a ton in chinese food stir fry - got one little taste from a larger piece, nothing else.
etcetera... it is basically wasted on cooking.
I had thought to make garlic powder with the extra but I can only guess that it too will be tasteless if used in cooking.
What to do with it? (aside from the 'toum' recipe that uses a whole cup of raw cloves )
