Garlic Bread Recipe

You may have once struggled with dry or greasy breads reeking of burned or raw garlic, but its time to put that behind you. This is a versatile recipe, as readily made with thin baguettes, as it is with rustic sourdoughs and airy Italian loaves. Cutting the bread like a Hasselback potato keeps the butter from seeping out and allows the garlic to infuse the bread with its flavor without scorching. But, if its an extra cheesy garlic bread youre looking for, slip a little mozzarella into each slit.
