Garlic Bread

If you make this Garlic Bread once you will probably keep some in the freezer, ready to go from then on. We do.

These are your ingredients.

• 12 – 15 slices or chunks bread
• 1/4 lb. butter (1 stick)
• 6-8 cloves garlic – chopped then  mashed
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1 level tbsp. dried basil or 2 tbsp. chopped fresh
• 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil

Making your Garlic Bread

Cut the butter up into chunks and smear it around a little.

Peel and chop the garlic. Then sprinkle a pinch of salt on it and squash it with the side of your knife to make the pieces smaller. The salt will absorb the juices and add to the flavor of the finished product

With a butter knife mix the butter, garlic, cheese and basil all together. Then form a kinda lagoon for the shot of olive oil then mix the oil in until it’s all smooth.

Smear it on the bread, or breads, of your choice to create your garlic bread. We have here some slices of gluten free for Gammy, some chunks of ciabatta and some slices of a baguette that we had in the freezer.

Toast up what you are going to use now in your air fryer or your big oven..

And save the rest of it in plastic bags in the freezer so you can have your garlic bread even on those busy weeknights. It goes great just about anything. But, of course especially good with our Italian recipes.
