Bread

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, combine the unsalted butter, minced garlic cloves, chopped fresh parsley, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Toasting the Bread

  1. 2

    Slice the Bread

    Cut the Cuban bread loaf in half lengthwise. If desired, you can also cut it into smaller pieces for individual servings.

  2. 3

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Generously spread the prepared garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the Cuban bread.

  3. 4

    Toast the Bread

    Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the buttered side of the bread down on the skillet and toast until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. If desired, you can also place the bread under a broiler for a couple of minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
