[rec.food.recipes] LACTO: Henninger's Ale House Garlic Bread

farmer@bali.amd.com (Suzanne Farmer) (04/04/91)

This is in response to a request for a garlic bread recipe.

I cut it from a newspaper many years ago (judging from my yellowed copy)
and I'm not sure of its origin.  However, it's the best I've tried to
date.

HENNINGER'S ALE HOUSE GARLIC BREAD

1/2 pound butter, softened
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
	   (I substitute 1/2 tsp. ground red pepper)
1 teaspoon dried parsley    
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Mix all ingredients.

Spread generously on day-old Italian bread (slices ~1.5" thick).

Broil until bubbly and golden.

Note: It is very important to get day-old bread.  Fresh bread will get
too soggy.  This garlic spread will keep for months in the
refrigerator.
