Toasty Garlic Bread Food

TOASTED GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Cut the bread into slices 1 to 2 inches thick.
• In a small bowl, mix butter, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly on the bread slices.
• On a medium baking sheet, arrange the slices evenly and broil 5 minutes, or until slightly brown. Check frequently so they do not burn.
• Remove from broiler. Top with cheese and return to broiler 2 to 3 minutes, until cheese is slightly brown and melted. Serve at once.

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.

ROASTED GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut top from each head of garlic, exposing the cloves. Place heads of garlic (cut side up), on a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil. Pour olive oil over them, and top with thyme springs. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap the foil tightly. Place in a small ovenproof pan, and bake until the cloves begin to pop out, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and cool.
• To remove the cloves, open the foil and squeeze the lower part of the head of garlic. In a small bowl, mash the cloves to form a paste. (At this point the paste can be used or stored in the refrigerator or freezer.)
• Add butter and chopped thyme to the bowl, stirring to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Toast both sides of the bread, using a hot grill, grill pan, or broiler. Spread the roasted garlic butter paste onto the toasted bread. Serve immediately.

TOASTED GARLIC-MOZZARELLA BREAD SLICES

Steps:

• Slice the bread into about 1 to 1-1/2-inch thick slices using a serrated knife.
• In a small bowl mix together 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons soft butter (10 tablespoons) with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, garlic, oregano, and salt until well combined.
• Add in black pepper to taste.
• Spread the mixture over the bread slices.
• Place the slices onto a baking sheet.
• Broil for about 4 minutes or until slightly brown (watch closely these will brown quickly!).
• Remove then sprinkle the mozzarella cheese onto each slice, return to broiler for about 2 minutes or until the cheese is lightly browned.
• Serve immediately.

GARLIC BREAD TOASTS

Steps:

• Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Toast the crust side for 2 mins until really crispy. Mix together butter, garlic and parsley in a bowl. Spread over the cut bread halves. Sprinkle over the Parmesan. Just before serving place on a baking sheet, then cook under a hot grill for 5 mins until toasty and lightly golden. Let it cool for 1 min before cutting into thick slices.

SIMPLE AND TASTY GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Cut your bread into 1/2 inch slices.
• Brush Olive Oil onto one side of each slice.
• Add Garlic salt to each slice(if you like it more salty, add a little more).
• Layer each slice with the Parmesan then with Mozzarella on top of that.
• Italian Seasoning on the very top.
• Bake at 400 F for about 5 minutes, then switch to broiler for a couple additional minutes. This will help it brown nicely and bring out the flavor in the Italian Seasonings; which is why it's important it is on top.
