Use a pastry brush to daub the cut sides of the bread with the garlic/butter mixture, sprinkle lightly with paprika. Put cut sides together. Wrap loosely in foil and bake at 425 degrees for 10 - 15 minutes, depending on how crunchy you like the crust to be. If you want something simpler, you can substitute jarred chopped or crushed garlic. Boron |

Add 4 cloves garlic to butter and oil and add black pepper and parsley. Saute for 3 to 5 minutes; stir occasionally. STEP 2: Slice bread lengthwise. Cut diagonal slices along crusted top of bread making sure not to cut through. STEP 3: With a pastry brush, brush on garlic and oil mixture. Along the top and inside of bread. STEP 4: Wrap in aluminum foil and twist ends. STEP 5: Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Simple enough? Cheers Cathy(xyz) |

"FreewareTown.com" > wrote in message oups.com... >I need a good and simply recipe for Garlic bread Cut a loaf of bread in half lengthwise and then in half again so you have 4 quarters. Mix softened butter and evoo into a paste adding crushed garlic and some romano or parmesan cheese. Line a cookie sheet with foil, Spread the quarters with the cheese/garlic/butter/oil mixture. Bake in a 350 degrees oven until the crust starts to crisp, about 12 to 15 minutes depending on the bread and the placement in the oven. Turn on the broiler and broil until the top is brown and crispy but not burnt. If you like some herbs can be added at the mixture But I prefer not to do so. Dimitri |

Thing is, you open the jar and it smells great ... put it in your food and there just isn't that garlic flavor going on, I really dislike that stuff. I think all the flavor winds up in the oil or something. I admit, I am very fussy about garlic. nancy |

I have a jar there myself. I bet that oil would be good on the bread along with the garlic, might really be good for that. nancy |

> I need a good and simply recipe for Garlic bread The easiest way I know to make garlic bread is to crush some garlic into some good olive oil. slice some nice bread (Italian loaf or baguette), brush the oil and garlic onto the bread, wrap it in foil and heat. Alternately, you can toast some sliced bread and simply rub it with a crushed garlic clove. |

Spread each side with butter and then spread crushed garlic on top of the butter. Pop under a broiler just for a minute or until the bread gets nice and toasty. It doesn't get much easier than that. |

It doesn't get much easier than that. A different approach. It needs a loaf of bread with a French or Italian-style crust. Take a clove of garlic and rub it firmly on the entire surface of the bread. The garlic will wear down and deposit itself on the crust. It may take more than one clove. Use however many it takes. Slice the bread open along one long side leaving the other side connected as a hinge. Mash two or three cloves of garlic with about 1/2 teaspoon or so of salt and process that into maybe 1/2 cup olive oil. Spread/pour that into the opened loaf of bread, getting it as evenly distributed as possible. More oil, if you like. Close it and pop into a 300°F oven for about 10 minutes. Slice and serve or just throw it into the middle of a crowd of hungry people. They'll tear it up and that's fine, too. For a wonderfully subtle difference, forget the salt and throw in two or three anchovy fillets. Smash them and the garlic into a paste, then add the oil and process together. Finish as above. Yowzah... as they say along the Mediterranean coast. Pastorio |

You can let it cool and smear some in between each slice of a not-full-thickness cut loaf of Italian bread, or you can hold the thus-cut loaf on its end and spoon some of it in each slice. Warm briefly in oven (not long slow tinfoil-wrapped warming) and tuck into a cloth lined bowl with a ceramic warmer in the bottom. Yum blacksalt |

I slice the bread just as if I was going to making toast, then butter the bread with the garlic butter (only on 1 side). When I figure I have enough garlic bread slices prepared; I put them on tin foil (butter side up) and broil them in the oven till nicely browned. -- The eyes are the mirrors....

To die for! I haven't managed to roast garlic properly so that it doesn't come out tasting bitter. I finally gave up and stopped wasting perfectly good garlic heads on it. :) My garlic bread I finely mince fresh garlic and get some shredded whole milk mozarella, set aside. Then I take slices up italian bread or baguette into half in slices and brush both sides liberally with olive oil, put them on a cookie sheet and start toasting one side under the broiler. after one side is well toasted, I turn them over and start them toasting on the other side. Once they're brown but not too brown, I sprinkle the garlic on top of each round then top it with the cheese and broil until the cheese is melted and a little bubbly, and then I serve it right away. I love bread with chunks of garlic. :) -- Siobhan Perricone Humans wrote the bible, God wrote the rocks -- Word of God by Kathy Mar |
