Bread

Garlic Butter

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the garlic cheese bread.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Slice the Bread

    Take the Italian loaf and slice it in half lengthwise to create two open-faced pieces.

  2. 4

    Spread Garlic Butter

    Using a brush or a knife, generously spread the prepared garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of both halves of the bread.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    Evenly sprinkle the shredded Provel cheese over the garlic buttered bread, ensuring that the surface is well covered.

Baking

  1. 6

    Bake the Bread

    Place the prepared bread halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.

  2. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove the garlic cheese bread from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing into pieces. Serve warm.
