Garlic Bread
Garlic Bread uses a soft French bread loaf generously brushed with a butter mixture of minced garlic, kosher salt, and fresh parsley before baking. The bread is baked first at moderate temperature to warm and infuse butter flavors, then briefly broiled to achieve a golden, lightly crisp top. This method creates a fragrant, savory bread with a tender crumb and a bright, garlicky finish.
