GARLIC AND HERB BREAD



Garlic and Herb Bread image

This is wonderful with spaghetti, lasagna, or another Italian dish, but my family likes it with almost anything. It's very good if made the day before you need it, then split down the middle, buttered, and reheated at mealtime. I use a bread machine, but it can be made without. I like to use the dough cycle, then bake it in a French loaf pan.

GARLIC AND HERB PULL APART BREAD



Garlic and Herb Pull Apart Bread image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     appetizer

Time 6h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons warm water
1 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup boiling water
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 1/2 cup or more as needed
4 cloves garlic, grated
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 1/2 cups jarred marinara sauce
1/2 cup half-and-half

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix the warm water, yeast and 1 teaspoon of the sugar. Set aside for about 5 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken and bubble slightly. (If the mixture does not start to thicken and bubble slightly, the yeast is not working. Check the expiration date on the yeast and start over.)
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, stir together the egg, oil, salt and remaining 1/2 cup sugar until well combined. Mix in the cold water followed by the boiling water. Add the yeast mixture to the mixing bowl and stir until well blended. Add the flour and stir until it comes together into a shaggy dough, about 1 minute. Replace the paddle attachment with the dough hook and continue to knead until mostly smooth, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, 2 tablespoons of the parsley and 1 tablespoon of the chives to the dough. Continue to knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, another 3 minutes, adding in the extra 1/2 cup flour or more as needed so the dough isn't too sticky. Transfer the dough to a large, oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 3 hours.
  • Line an 8-inch round cake pan or baking dish with a sheet of parchment, allowing the excess paper to hang over the edges of the pan. Place a 2-to-3-inch biscuit cutter, sharp side down, in the center of the pan or dish and set aside.
  • Mix the melted butter with the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley and 1 tablespoon chives in a large bowl. Cut the dough into strips and then cut each strip into 1-inch pieces. Roll a piece into a ball and transfer it to the bowl with the butter, turning to coat completely. Transfer it to the cake pan. Repeat with the remaining dough and butter mixture, surrounding the biscuit cutter completely with the balls. Drizzle any remaining butter from the bowl over the top. Cover and let rise for 1 1/2 hours at room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the balls with the Parmesan. Place the pan of dough onto a baking sheet and bake until the top is golden brown and crisp, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • While the bread is resting, in a small saucepan, heat the marinara and half-and-half until it is warm. Transfer to a bowl for dipping. Transfer the bread to a serving platter with the side sprinkled with Parmesan facing up. Remove the biscuit cutter. Serve immediately with the creamy tomato dipping sauce.

Tips:

- To prepare the garlic butter, use a food processor to mince the garlic with the basil, parsley, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Then, mix in the butter until smooth. You can use unsalted butter if you prefer, but the salt in the recipe helps to balance the flavors. - Use a serrated knife to cut the baguette. This will help to prevent the bread from tearing. - Brush the garlic butter on the baguette slices, making sure to coat both sides. - Bake the garlic bread in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. - Serve the garlic bread immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
