In A Pinch Garlic Bread Food

THE BEST GARLIC BREAD

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.

• 1. Add the butter, olive oil, garlic, and salt to a small bowl and use a fork to mash all the ingredients together.
• 2. Once the mixture resembles mayonnaise, stir in the minced parsley.
• 3. Cut the baguette in half lengthwise, then split piece down the middle as if you're going to make a sandwich.
• 4. Spread the garlic mixture onto the bread and toast in a toaster oven, or in a regular oven set to broil.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400.
• 2. In a blender/food processor blend garlic, parmesan cheese, basil leaves and butter. Blend it to your desired consistency. (I like it a little chunky.)
• 3. Spread mixture on bread halves. Sprinkle with a little ground black pepper. This is optional, but I like pepper on everything.
• 4. Line a baking sheet with foil and place the bread halves on the foil and bake for about 10-15 minutes.

• Place the garlic in the bowl of a food processor and process until minced. Add the parsley, oregano, salt and pepper and pulse twice.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan and add the garlic mixture. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Slice the ciabatta bread in half horizontally, and spread the butter on 1 half. Spread the garlic mixture on the other half of the bread, and put the halves together. Wrap the bread in aluminum foil.
• Place the bread in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Open the foil, and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes.

OUTRAGEOUS GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. (Make sure your oven is clean or it will smoke!)
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic, stir to coat with the butter, and cook, covered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is very tender. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside until cool enough to handle. Mash the garlic in the butter with a fork. Stir in the Parmesan, parsley, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and place both halves, cut sides up, on a cutting board. Score each half diagonally (don't cut all the way through) in large serving-size pieces. Spoon all of the garlic mixture generously on the cut sides of the bread. Cut each half of the baguette in half crosswise along a score and place the 4 pieces on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
• Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until the topping is bubbly and starting to brown and the bread is crisp. Transfer to a board, cut in serving pieces along the scores, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve warm.
