What is the best bread for The Ultimate Garlic Bread Recipe?
Garlic bread can be made using any bread. We have found that we like to make ours on a French bread loaf or another artisan type baguette. We like having a crisp exterior with a soft crumb on the inside. You can always make a great piece of garlic bread using a country style artisan loaf, sourdough, or thick pieces of bread. Avoid using flavored breads as they won’t mix well with garlic.
Can you use pre-minced garlic?
Fresh garlic always has the most flavor, but it’s becoming increasingly common to find minced or crushed garlic in grocery stores. Some grocery stores mince it for you in the store and we have found that this type of pre-minced garlic is just as good as mincing it yourself. Minced or crushed garlic sold in a jar does have an inferior flavor, but it can still be used in any recipe calling for minced garlic.
Salted vs. Unsalted Butter:
You can use either salted or unsalted butter in this recipe. If you use unsalted butter, just make sure to add an additional 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Can I make this without a broiler?
You absolutely can! Rather than broiling, bake in an oven preheated to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. This garlic bread goes great with the following recipes:
