Hello.
I'm going to try this using my panini press
Nope
Too much work for a cheap simple garlic bread that is no better than a sandwich bread garlic bread everyone grew up with. The only special thing is you nooked the garlic and butter in microwave 👎 👎 👎 👎 👎.
I have made this once so I don’t know how it is normally but, I recommend adding mozzarella cheese in with the “garlic baby food” especially if you (like me) added to much butter and it didn’t turn into more of a baby food consistency, because I found that it helped make it more like a spread than just a butter liquid. I haven’t tried it without the extra cheese but with the cheese it was really good. I also added a bit of Mexican cheese blend on top.
That last step to toast the crust is everything.
Horrible! Took three days for the taste of garlic to leave my mouth! Water pik, electric toothbrush, mouthwash, repeat, nothing worked.
Really tasty garlic bread
It Works. It really Works!
America's Test Kitchen, you make the best garlic bread! ❤
Bridget is adorable……I've subscribed just so I can see more of her 😍😍😍😍😍
So many people virtue signal about garlic and onion powder…. I'm completely over it
What kind of professional chef cooks with a microwave? 🤨 This was the dumbest video I’ve ever seen.
Boring
This scripted conversation is so stilted, plastic, and awkward…
well now i look like a heel for not looking this up before getting one of those overpriced take n bake loaves. gonna find some excuse to make this soon
Why won't you show how to with garlic powder?! I'm far too far away from real garlic right now!
I prefer Granulated Garlic because it resists absorbing moisture whilst sitting in the spice rack better than powder.
This was really revolutionary! So many excellent lil mini tips that equate to literally the best garlic bread possible. Thanks guys!
Just as you said…Perfect!
This looks amazing!
Hmm, no Italian seasoning mixed in the butter/garlic mixture…Ahh…NO.
im dying over here!!!
Looks good I'll give it a try.. Thank You
"So we've microwaved this garlic for a minute, we've killed Allison." Wtf
I love Bridget's wig; it looks so natural.
"Ok Bridgette, we've microwaved this butter for a minute, we've killed Allison" Jesus, Keith is a savage
Mine garlic spread was not that thick
A Microwave? They can't be serious!
They left out that the original butter mixture needs to cool a bit before adding the other 4 tablespoons of butter or it will turn into liquid and not be a paste
I appreciate that they did not use the word Italian in describing this recipe (other than in the use of an "Italian" style loaf of bread). While beloved and common in the USA and maybe (should be) elsewhere, you won't find American Garlic Bread in Italy. The closest you'll find there is Bruschetta (from the Italian word bruciare, to burn.) Where thick slices of bread are grilled over a wood fire until the top is toasted and crusty, rubbed with a garlic clove and then brushed with olive oil and sprinkles of salt and pepper. Toppings can be added like chopped tomato, but it is also served plain. Both Garlic Bread and Bruschetta are delicious and diferent.
VERY CLOSE, ATK!!!
1 head garlic – pressed into a paste
1.5 sticks of GOOD butter (Kerrygold)
Mix and heat in microwave until warm
Finely chop 1/4 C flat leaf parsley
add into warm garlic butter mixture, let sit
Cut loaf of french bread from top down, on a large bias, but stop JUST short of through. You should have a loaf that looks like a an angled zipper, each slice about 1/2 to 3/4" wide.
Spoon a TBLS or 2 of the mixture in between each slice, do not worry about getting it on both sides of each slice.
paint the exterior of the whole loaf with any leftover garlic mixture and bake it at 350 for about 5 to 7 mins, until just slightly golden brown exterior.
cut through the bottom of each slice and serve immediately.
Doing it vertically, results in an absolutely insane soft interior, with a crunchy satisfying exterior. Give it a shot!!
Garlic powder as an ingredient turned me off but I’m glad I kept watching so I was able to see the turn-upside-down and put another pan on it trick. Awesome!
I love when I hear no music in the video.
Who's in charge here…?
Not so cool to give me a link to your recipe and then blur out the ingredients unless I surrender my email address to you. No problem though. I know how to write down ingredients and take notes from your show.
I am shocked! I was expecting "Really good garlic bread" to be, well, really good garlic bread. It sucks! This is absolutely the worst garlic bread I've ever made. Made EXACTLY according to the recipe, it was bland beyond belief. I didn't ask guests what they thought, I was afraid of the verdict. ATK absolutely SUCKS on garlic bread!
Love Garlic bread!
Now that’s what I’m talking about, this looks awesome and so simple! I love that golden crust yum!
Better late than never. !!!! I love you guys. !!!! All of you. ,!!!! I don't know why I didn't find you earlier and subscribed. !!!! 😎✌✝💕💕💕
NOOOOOO…where's the basil and parsley!?!
Don't forget the cheese dusting.
Why does the raw grated garlic can turn green when used in butter for garlic bread? Thank you.
I would add Parmesan cheese and more butter !!!
Making this bread for the first time and it's in the oven , last step as I'm typing !!!
That looks AWESOME!
I feel like he would be in America’s MOST WANTED for the disappearance of Allison
My mother made glorious browned crisp garlic bread without all of this falderal and so do I!
