Dans Garlic Bread Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine butter and garlic. Brush over cut sides of bread; sprinkle with parsley. Place, cut side up, on a baking sheet., Bake at 350° for 8 minutes. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 2 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Mix butter, olive oil, minced garlic, garlic powder, parsley, and salt in a bowl until well combined.
• Cut bread loaf into 1-inch slices and spread garlic mixture over each slice. Place each on a baking sheet. Wrap with additional aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bread is crispy and heated through, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Pour milk in a heatproof bowl, and gently warm in a microwave oven set on Low until milk is about 100 degrees F (38 degrees C), about 15 seconds. Mix in the sugar and honey, and stir to dissolve. Mix in the yeast, and let stand until the yeast activates and forms a creamy layer on the milk, about 15 minutes.
• Place 4 cups of bread flour and the salt into the mixing bowl of a stand mixer; pour in the yeast mixture, and mix on slow speed with a mixing paddle until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute; dough will be very wet. Add the butter, and mix in the remaining 2 cups of bread flour, or as needed, until the dough begins to gather itself into a ball. Change the fitting from the mixing paddle to a dough hook, and machine-knead the dough until smooth and springy, about 4 minutes.
• Transfer the dough onto a well-floured work surface, and knead until you see the surface of the dough begin to break during folding and kneading. Roll dough into a ball, and place into a lightly floured large bowl. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel, and set into a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Spray 2 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
• Punch down the dough, remove to the floured surface, and knead for 2 more minutes; cut the dough in half with a sharp knife. Form the dough into logs, adding more flour if necessary, and place the loaves into the sprayed pans. Cover the pans with a kitchen towel, and place into a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1 more hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the bread loaves into the preheated oven, and turn the heat down to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until the tops are golden brown and the loaves make a hollow sound when thumped, about 25 minutes. Cool the pans on baking racks for about 5 minutes before turning the bread loaves out to finish cooling on racks. Cover the loaves with a kitchen towel as they cool.

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix the warm water, HALF the strong flour and yeast. Leave in a warm place for about two hours or until the mixture froths.
• add the orange juice, the remaining strong flour and the salt. with your hands mix the mixture until it forms a rough ball in the centre of the bowl.the dough is supposed to be wet and sticky. It is the high water content that will give this bread its open texture.
• Pour a third of the olive oil on top of the dough. rub a little olive oil on the palms of your hand, then start to tuck the dough underneath itself, while rotating the bowl, until you have a smooth shiny mass. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 45 minutes. ( you will be doing this step another 3 times and 5 more times without oil).
• In the meantime make the filling. Blanch the garlic in boiling water for 2 minutes , peel.
• put the olive oil in a small heavy based frying pan over a medium heat.when it simmers add the garlic and saute for a minute beig careful not to burn it.
• Add the water, balsamic vinegar ,sugar, salt, pepper and rosemary. reduce the heat to a very low setting and simmer 5 minutes. When the garlic is soft increase heat and reduce the liquid until syrupy. ( don't caramelise).
• Now back to the bread.Slightly deflate the dough with your fingers, making dozens of indentations. drizzle on another third of the olive oil and repeat the same tucking action. Cover with plastic wrap and leave 30 minutes.
• Repeat this step another time with the rest of the oil and rest another 30 minutes. After this you will do the tucking action another 5 times but without using oil leaving the same 30 minute interval. By the end the dough should be smooth.
• On a floured surface, press out the dough with your fingers and heels until you get a rectangle 36 cm x 18 x 2 cm thick.
• Spread the cooked whole cloves with their syrup and distribute evenly over the surface. Fold the longest side across by a third, and then bring the other side on top . Now do the same but from the narrow side. fold a third across and then bring the other side on top of it, trapping layers of filling between the dough. Cover and rest 30 minutes.
• Brush a large baking dish with olive oil and dust with polenta. Using a sharp knife cut the dough into 5 cm slices ( about 4). and lay them down CUT SIDE UP, streching them to a slightly oval shape. Leave enough space so they won't touch each other when they will expand.
• Cover with a damp cloth and let rise about an hour or until double in size. Pre heat oven to 250°C.
• Brush top with olive oil. bake in the middle shelf. After 5 minutes recuce heat to 180C and bake a further 35-40 minutes or until the loaf is bromn and quite blistered, and feels firm when pressed.
• Leave to cool on a wire rack and leave to cool to room temperature before slicing.
