Louisiana Garlic Bread Recipes

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:

• 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:

• Mix all ingredients well.
• Spread butter mixture onto both sides of bread.
• Put halves together and wrap in aluminum foil.
• Cook on barbeque or oven at 350 until heated through.

Steps:

• Set up a grill for cooking with direct and indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• To a small saucepan over the indirect-heat side of the grill, add the garlic cloves and olive oil. Close the lid of the grill and gently simmer until the garlic cloves are roasted and soft, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and, using a fork, mash the cloves to form a coarse paste. Add the butter, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well to combine.
• Lay the bread out on a sheet tray, cut-side up, and spoon all but 2 tablespoons of the garlic mixture over the bread. Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan to each half. Place the sheet tray on the indirect-heat side of the grill, then close the lid and bake until crisp and the cheese has set, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, then put the 2 halves of the bread together on a piece of foil. Spoon or brush the remaining garlic butter over the top. Wrap in the foil, then place on the indirect-heat side of the grill. Close the grill and bake until golden brown and the garlic butter has soaked into the bread, another 3 to 5 minutes. To serve, open the foil, cut into smaller pieces and place on a board or platter.

Steps:

• Scrub mussels well and remove beards. Finely chop onion, celery, and bell pepper. In a 6- to 8-quart heavy kettle melt butter over moderately low heat and stir in flour. Cook roux, stirring constantly, until color of peanut butter, about 6 minutes. Stir in vegetables and cook, covered, until soft. Stir in tomato paste, broth, tomatoes with juice, and cayenne and bring mixture to a boil, breaking up tomatoes. Simmer sauce, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes, or until thickened.
• While sauce is simmering, make garlic bread:
• Preheat broiler.
• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch salt. In a small saucepan melt butter over moderate heat and stir in garlic paste. Halve bread horizontally and brush garlic butter on cut sides. On a baking sheet broil bread about 4 inches from heat until golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir mussels into sauce and simmer, covered, 4 to 8 minutes, or until mussels are opened. (Discard any unopened mussels after 8 minutes.) Divide mussels between 2 bowls.
• Season sauce with salt and ladle over mussels. Serve bread on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a sheet of foil on a small baking sheet and line another baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut ½ inch off the tops of the garlic heads and place on the baking sheet with the foil. Drizzle the garlic with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Place the tops back on each garlic bulb. Bring up the corners of the foil around the garlic, then roll closed to form a tight packet. Place in the oven and roast until the garlic is caramelized, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 30 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Leave the oven on.
• Unwrap the foil packet and squeeze the heads to release the roasted garlic cloves into a medium bowl. Mash with a fork until a thick paste forms (some chunks are okay).
• Add the butter, parsley, oregano, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt and stir to combine.
• Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the bread into 1-inch-thick (2.54 cm) slices, stopping ½ inch (1.24 cm) from the bottom of the loaf to keep intact. Turn the loaf 90° and repeat cutting in the opposite direction.
• Place the loaf on the parchment-lined baking sheet and stuff the mozzarella between the bread slices. Spread the roasted garlic butter over the entire loaf.
• Place the loaf into the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the top of the loaf is golden brown and crispy, 25-30 minutes.
• Remove the loaf from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Grate the Parmesan cheese directly over the top. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
