There's no sure-fire method. First you need good bread. Next you need
good garlic. I sometimes use olive oil and sometimes butter. Maybe
some of each.
Slice the garlic and put in a little cup. Add the butter/oil. Cook in
microwave until the flavor is infused. At this point one time, my
brother asked what to do with the garlic slices? I looked at him like
he was crazy, and explained that they were the best part. If not
everybody wanted them, then just put them on part of the bread slices
and only the lucky people would get those. In our family, everybody
gets a share. After adding the garlic and butter/oil to the top of the
bread, broil until browned. Fight over the ones with the most garlic on
them.
