Commander's Garlic Bread image

This bread is served at Commander's Palace restaurant in New Orleans. The challenge is always not to eat too much of this before your dinners are served!It's that wonderful- Parmesean, dill-scented garlic bread! It goes great with almost every salad or soup- I especially like it with Commander's Seafood Gumbo. Make plenty, as it will disappear fast! Originally from the 1984 " The Commander's Palace New Orleans Cookbook".

Time 18m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 loaf French bread, about 14 inches long
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (One stick)
2 garlic cloves, mashed to a puree
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Slice bread lengthwise.
  • Melt butter in a small skillet, add garlic, and heat gently for two minutes.
  • Brush the melted butter generously on the cut sides of the bread halves; sprinkle with the dill and cheese.
  • Bake until golden and very hot, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Cut each half crosswise into 1 inch slices and serve immediately with appetizers, salads, or soups.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Garlic: Fresh garlic provides a more intense and aromatic flavor compared to pre-minced or jarred garlic.
  • Clarified Butter: Using clarified butter prevents the butter from burning and adds a rich, nutty flavor to the bread.
  • Garlic Butter Mixture: Make sure the garlic butter mixture is evenly distributed on the bread slices to ensure consistent flavor and browning.
  • Choose a Sturdy Bread: A sturdy bread, such as a baguette or ciabatta, can withstand the heat of the oven without becoming soggy.
  • Broil the Bread Slices: Broiling the bread slices gives them a crispy texture and golden brown color. Keep a close eye on the bread to prevent burning.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Garnish the finished garlic bread with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Conclusion:

Commander's Palace Garlic Bread is a classic New Orleans dish that combines simple ingredients to create a flavorful and memorable side dish.
