Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 large soft Italian or French loaf
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

GARLIC BREAD



Garlic Bread image

You may have once struggled with dry or greasy breads reeking of burned or raw garlic, but it's time to put that behind you. This is a versatile recipe, as readily made with thin baguettes, as it is with rustic sourdoughs and airy Italian loaves. Cutting the bread like a Hasselback potato keeps the butter from seeping out and allows the garlic to infuse the bread with its flavor without scorching. But, if it's an extra cheesy garlic bread you're looking for, slip a little mozzarella into each slit.

Categories     dinner, weekday, breads, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup/8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
4 fat garlic cloves, grated
1/2 cup Parmesan, grated
1/4 cup firmly packed chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Black pepper
1 baguette or rustic crusty loaf
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, Parmesan and parsley. Add the salt and generously season with pepper. Set aside while you cut the baguette.
  • Cut deep slits into the baguette, 1-inch apart - don't cut all the way through the loaf - and place the baguette on a large piece of foil. Using a teaspoon or an offset spatula, generously spread the seasoned butter inside each slit. Make sure to reach the bottom of the slit; don't be shy here.
  • Wrap the baguette in the foil, place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the baguette from the oven and unwrap the top (leave the bread on the foil). If you're adding mozzarella, use the offset spatula or spoon to gently open each slit and tuck a piece of mozzarella in (it's O.K. if the cheese pops out from the top a little). Return bread to the oven and bake until crisp and golden on top, another 5 minutes. Slice with a serrated knife (or tear with your hands) and serve at once.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Be generous with the garlic butter. It's what makes garlic bread so delicious!
  • Toast the bread until it's golden brown and crispy. This will help it hold up to the garlic butter and cheese.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful and complex topping.
  • Bake the garlic bread until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that it's cooked through and delicious.
  • Serve the garlic bread hot out of the oven. It's best when it's fresh and crispy.

Conclusion:

Garlic bread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you like it simple or loaded with cheese and toppings, there's a garlic bread recipe out there for everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give garlic bread a try. You won't be disappointed!
