The slab of garlic bread that comes with the pasta place's $28 entree. A baguette, a stick of butter, a head of garlic. That's the whole recipe.

What You Need

Serves
6
  • 1 baguette, or ciabatta loaf
  • 1/2 cup salted butter, softened
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced or grated

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Preheat broiler to high with a rack 6 inches under. Split the baguette lengthwise and place cut-side up on a sheet pan.

  2. 2

    Mash butter and garlic together with a heavy pinch of salt. Spread thickly over both halves โ€” do not skimp.

  3. 3

    Broil 3โ€“4 minutes, watching constantly, until the butter bubbles and the edges turn deep golden. Slice on a bias and serve immediately.
