How to use garlic?

Question

How can I use actual garlic cloves to make garlic bread? Thanks

Answer 1

After family gatherings I ALWAYS get the call... "how do you make your garlic butter??"

It is REALLY easy...

You take 2 sticks of butter and let it come to room temp.

You take 1 WHOLE BULB of garlic and peel it.

Take 1/2 the garlic and use a garlic press or chop it as fine as you possibly can... You can even use a fine-shread cheese grater... set aside

Add 1/2 cup of olive oil and put it in a sauce pan.
Put the remaining WHOLE CLOVES to the pan and turn on the heat to high until it really starts to sizzle.

Turn it down to med and let it go until the garlic turns soft and brown. Take off heat and let it cool...

Use a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon to mash the whole cloves in the oil.

Put the pressed/chopped garlic, roasted garlic oil, and butter into a glass or metal bowl.

Put that bowl into a larger bowl filled with ice water.

Whip it with a whisk or with a hand mixer until it is blended and chilled. Add salt and pepper to taste once it starts to firm up.

Put in an air tight container and store it in your fridge.

Take out 1/2 an hour before it needs to be used.

It will last weeks if kept in the fridge.

Answer 2

I like to roast the entire head of garlic in aluminum foil and a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper for about 45 minutes, let cool then squeeze all the roasted garlic out of the skins and mix with softened butter.......spread that mixture on the bread slices (or, alternatively, on the entire halves of an Italian or French load, cut in half horizontally)

YUM!!! Hope you enjoy this recipe, friends beg me to make this when I'm having a pasta party.....

Answer 3

I spread the garlic on the bread then I bake it in the oven.

Answer 4

Roast them in the oven to make them soft. Cut off top the bulb, drizzle olive oil on the bulb, and cover in aluminum foil and bake. Remove from oven and squeeze out the pulp. Mix with your butter. Slather on your bread.

Answer 5

you good run it along one of those cheese graters or run it through a food processor with 3 tbsp of olive oil!!!

Answer 6

Peel, squeeze the juice and mix the juice with butter.
