  5. 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.

  31. 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.

  32. 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!!

  36. 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.

  37. 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!
