Garlic Toast

By Jessica Cameron 

• 2 Garlic Gloves
• Olive Oil
• Roasted Granulated Garlic
• Fresh Artisanal Bread Loaf (your call)
• 1/2 Lb Butter, softened 

Total time about 1:30, total preparation about 10 minutes.

      

 

     Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, take a stick of butter out and let sit out to soften up.

 

     Choose 2 bulbs of garlic and slice the top 1/4 of the bulb off paper and all.  Form a piece of foil into a basket to hold he bulbs of garlic and place the bulbs and the bulb tops in the foil basket and cover drizzle with olive oil. Wrap the bulbs up gruffly in the foil and throw into the oven for 1 hour.  Remove from the oven and open foil to let the garlic cool a bit.

     Once the garlic cools enough to be handled, release all the toasted cloves into a bowl with the softened butter. Note: Discard any blacked or hard cloves, use only softened ones.

Split a loaf of artisanal bread in half lengthwise and toast it lightly. Once toasted, spread the garlic butter generously on the toasted bread. Add 1-3 tablespoons of Roasted Granulated Garlic Put the buttered bread under the broiler for 3-6 minutes, watch it until it's golden brown and butter has soaked in.

Remove from the oven when desired toasted color is achieved.  Let cool a few minutes and slice.  Serve with soups, pasta, and roasted chicken.

Note: This will make your house smell like garlic when roasting but the smell is good!
