A Really Good Garlic Herb Bread
So... any good sauce (or gravy if you will) deserves good pasta and to my way of thinking a really good bread. I have been making a garlic herb bread to go with my spaghetti for some time. I use real butter, unsalted and a good olive oil. Cut off cold butter by the tablespoon... drizzle about a tablespoon of olive oil for every four tablespoons of butter.
A single stick of unsalted butter.
2 tablespoons of Olive Oil.
2 teaspoons of garlic powder.
2 teaspoons of onion powder.
1 teaspoon of sweet basil
1/4 teaspoon of oregano or Italian seasoning.
A dozen turns of a cracked pepper mill.
2-3 tablespoons of a decent parmesean.
add a little sea salt if desired.
Once you get all of the spread ingredients incorporated, spread it a good Italian or even French bread (use a partial baked bread if you can find it). Bake at 350 for about 5-7 minutes... turn to broil and watch carefully... about 1 1/2 minutes until golden in color... not burnt, unless you like it like that.
I make the spread ahead of time... like days ahead. This can be made in larger batches and kept in the refrigerator or the freezer.
I have a tendency to play with the spices and sometime use a jarred, prepared chopped garlic with the liquid... very good. Throw on some decent Provelone Cheese, or if you are from St. Louis try adding a little Provel, you know what I am talkin about!!!
