Dema Alfresco Garlic Bread Dish

Unlike croutons, the crispy bread crumbs distribute themselves into the nooks and crannies and add amazing crunch to every bite.

GARLIC BREAD SPREAD

So if you have a slightly longer garlic bread, be sure to cut it in half. Just don’t pile on too much bread at once, or you won’t get a nice result. Also, given my fixation with Garlic Bread Toast, apart from this version that doesn’t even require an oven, I have other recipes which you must give a try, if you can resist one either. You can then take the bread out of the oven and make sure it is warm enough. If not, return it for an additional two to three minutes. After that, take the bread out of the foil and serve with the rest of the food. These crispy garlic bread crumbs are an amazing way to elevate and add texture to salads, pastas, and vegetable sides dishes. Use fresh garlic, not the pre-minced stuff in jars. I don’t advise using pre-minced jarred garlic because it often tastes bitter and sharp, not spicy and vibrant like fresh garlic.Since you pop the cloves into a blender whole anyway, there is virtually no prep for the garlic aside from peeling it.

Absolutely! Maybe you got a great deal on bread or cream cheese or just want to have a few loaves ready to go? It’s totally freezeable; you got this. Wrap each slice of bread separately in aluminum foil. This is necessary for the heat to be evenly distributed and the bread to be heated nicely. Besides, this way, you don’t need the addition of oil and don’t fry the bread actually but reheat it. Step 2: Put the Bread in the Skillet and CoverFrench bread: I prefer the light, soft crumb and crusty exterior of a French loaf for Garlic Bread, but if you can only find Italian bread, that will work just fine. It is a no brainer that one of my most favorite bits of this Garlic Bread is the aroma of the garlic itself, which stands out in the recipe. You can go about cutting the bread one of two ways: Cut it down the middle lengthwise or cut it crosswise into toasts. If you cut them into Garlic Toasts, you're guaranteed a crispy, crunchy exterior while the inside stays nice and soft. Yes, please.

Use the right amount of garlic. I found that about 4 large cloves per 1-pound loaf of bread gives good flavor without overwhelming the bread. Play with the amount to your liking, but 3 to 4 cloves is a good place to start. Select the right bread. Ciabatta, French baguette, or another long loaf of bread with a good crust and chewy texture on the inside is good to use in this recipe.Round out your Italian Feast: serve with a warm bowl of Minestrone Soup or Italian Wedding Soup, an entree-sized serving of Cheese Tortellini and Garlic Butter Sauce, savory Risotto, or a lively Pasta Primavera. Garlic bread is a type of bread that has been toasted or grilled and topped with garlic butter or olive oil mixed with garlic and herbs. It's usually served warm, either as an appetizer or side dish. It's popular in many cultures, including Italian, French and American cuisine. Prepare the ciabatta loaf. Place a 1-pound loaf of ciabatta on a cutting board and slice the bread in half horizontally. Place your non-dominant hand on the bread as you slice to keep it in place. Spoon the herby olive oil mixture onto both halves of the bread and spread it all over. Homemade Southern Biscuits bake up perfectly golden on the outside, flaky, and buttery on the inside every single time.

Yes, you can freeze garlic bread! In fact, freezing is the best option to store garlic bread long-term. Wrap the bread in foil and place it in freezer-safe zip-top bag for up to 3 months. To reheat, place garlic bread on a baking sheet (directly from the freezer; no need to thaw) and warm in a 375 degrees F heated oven until hot and crispy. Make sure your butter and cream cheese are at room temperature or the cheese mixture won’t mix well and will be lumpy. Garlic bread is one of the easiest little appetizers to make, yet I’ve eaten my fair share of greasy, limp garlic bread. Even worse, I’ve had some where the bread had an okay bite, but the garlic was too burned and bitter, leaving an unpleasant taste in my mouth. Have you been there?
