Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 head garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
One 12-inch loaf soft Italian bread
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Slice off and discard the top of the head of garlic. Place the garlic in a microwave-safe bowl and drizzle with the oil; pour 2 tablespoons water into the bowl. Cover with a plate (to act as a lid) and microwave on 50-percent power until the garlic is very soft, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool until comfortable to handle.
  • Meanwhile, slice the bread in half lengthwise.
  • Put the softened butter in a small bowl, squeeze in the garlic cloves and add the garlic salt. Stir until well blended. Generously spread the bread with garlic butter.
  • Preheat the broiler to high. Place the bread, buttered-side up, on a baking sheet and broil until lightly golden on top, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.
