You may have once struggled with dry or greasy breads reeking of burned or raw garlic, but it’s time to put that behind you. This is a versatile recipe, as readily made with thin baguettes, as it is garlic bread recipe rustic sourdoughs and airy Italian loaves. Cutting the bread like a Hasselback potato keeps the butter from seeping out and allows the garlic to infuse the bread with its flavor without scorching. In a small bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, Parmesan and parsley.
Add the salt and generously season with pepper. Set aside while you cut the baguette. Cut deep slits into the baguette, 1-inch apart — don’t cut all the way through the loaf — and place the baguette on a large piece of foil. Using a teaspoon or an offset spatula, generously spread the seasoned butter inside each slit. Wrap the baguette in the foil, place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Return bread to the oven and bake until crisp and golden on top, another 5 minutes.

Garlic Bread You can’t order pizza without a side of garlic bread. It would be like ordering a burger at Maccers with no fries. Oh the sacrilege, talking about so much fast food in one post! How to make garlic bread There are many ways to make garlic bread. But for me, the Dominos way will always be the best way: a baguette sliced almost all the way through, then each piece slathered with garlic butter, wrapped in foil and baked until toasty.
The crust isn’t that thick, and it’s usually pretty soft rather than crispy. Once slathered with butter and baked in foil, I find it yields the perfect ratio of crust crunch to soft, warm, garlic butter soaked bread. Bread aside, I only have one other rule: please use real garlic. As much as I will rip into Dominos and Pizza Hut garlic bread with enthusiasm, there’s no denying that it has an element of sourness to it which is probably due to using jarred garlic because that’s the main difference I notice between fresh and jarred garlic. Hence why homemade will always be so much better than Dominos.

Made your lasagna, Greek salad, potato salad and garlic bread! Can already cooked garlic bread be kept with the leftovers somehow? I had a pregnancy craving for Domino’s garlic bread and my husband suggested to make some at home. Considering making this for a party, but I have to make it a day early to save time, will it still be fresh when served?
