Herbed Garlic Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the garlic, parsley, basil, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely minced. Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and parsley mixture and cook for 1 minute, until the garlic is tender but not browned. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Slice the baguette lengthwise down the center, but not all the way through, and spoon the garlic mixture into the bread. Place the bread on a sheet pan and bake for 8 minutes. Slice diagonally and serve warm.

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of your oven, and preheat to 400.
• Bloom half the garlic: Thinly slice 7 of the cloves. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, and add garlic. Cook, stirring and swirling constantly, 7 to 8 minutes, or until the garlic is aromatic and tender. Do not allow it to take on any color. (If you sense it starting to brown, remove the pan from heat, and add a few drops of water.) Pour garlic and butter into a heatproof bowl, and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Very roughly chop remaining garlic, then place in the bowl of a mortar. Add a generous pinch of salt, and pound to a very fine paste.
• Place the cooled garlic butter in the bowl of a food processor along with the garlic paste, chopped parsley, chopped chives and chopped basil. Pulse until everything is very finely chopped, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula as needed. Add remaining butter, Parmesan and black pepper. Pulse to combine, again stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Taste, and add salt as needed.
• Deeply score the loaf of bread in 1-inch slices, but don't cut all the way through. Use an offset spatula or butter knife to generously spread garlic butter on one side of each slice, as far down as you can reach.
• Wrap the bread in aluminum foil, and place on a baking sheet. Bake on the center rack for 10 minutes, rotate the loaf 180 degrees and bake 10 minutes more. Unwrap the loaf, return it to the baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is brown and crisp. Remove from the oven, and let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the parsley leaves and chive pieces. Tear the basil leaves into the bowl in 1-inch pieces. Add a pinch of salt, and dress lightly with a few drops of olive oil. Stuff herb salad into the bread crevices, and serve the loaf immediately.

Steps:

• Cut french stick in slices 2/3 of the way through, being careful not to cut into bottom crust.
• Combine remaining ingredients thoroughly.
• Spread on slices of bread.

Spread between slices. Wrap loaf in a large piece of heavy-duty foil (about 28 in. x 18 in.). Bake at 325° for 15-20 minutes or until heated through.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together parsley, thyme, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a small bowl.
• Using a bread knife, slice loaf into 12 half-inch pieces, cutting only 3/4 of the way through the loaf so it stays intact. Brush herb mixture liberally between each slice. Wrap loaf loosely in foil. Heat until warm, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
