    I make garlic bread with french long loaf (like ciabatta), unsalted butter (preferably kerrygold butter), garlic, as much as you like and parsley. Try it. You will never forget the taste!!!!

    I use ciabatta (home made) and slice it, then put small knobs of homemade garlic butter on the slices, sprinkle with some cheese and herbs, grill for a few minutes till the cheese is bubbling.
