Wow!!!

I've just been to the Brau- und Rebfest (some kind of beer and wine festival) in Rütihof near Baden which was a great couple of hours out with the kids.

We had crepes, drinks and then headed through to get garlic bread, which I have to say was the best garlic bread I have ever had. Totally fresh, really thick garlic butter with good sized bits of garlic in it (not huge, but definitely not put through a garlic press).

Looking forward to next year already

I get a baguette, slice almost through, put garlic butter between slices, wrap in tinfoil and pop in the oven.

I have never made it like toast, with garlic salt on. Shall try that if i only want one slice for me.

I like pa amb tomaquet from my days in Barcelona. Toasted, dry bread, rub cut clove of garlic, rub deseeded tomato flesh, salt, olive oil. As with all Spanish food, you should be onto your second bottle before consumption.

Shame on my cooking master skills, but the best garlic bread I've head in a long time came from the cooler shelf in Denner. Real garlic and herb butter, you bring it home and bake. 0,9 chf.

At some point I'm going to make some toum and use it to make garlic bread

I've tried a lot of the Garlic breads available here; Migros chilled & frozen, Coop chilled & frozen, ALDI chilled, Denner frozen, but my favorite as MusicChick says is the chilled Denner one. Consistently delish. It's a staple at all my bbqs, grilled over coals. I find a lot of the others taste rancid.

Drool , Toum is absolutely heavenly on everything.

I actually toast the bread, then rub the toast with half a garlic clove and THEN put butter on top of it. Easy on the garlic, though, it certainly is the "gift that keeps on giving", if you know what I mean.

Here a recepie:

Take butter from fridge and put approx 150g in a bowl.

Go to nearby grocery store an buy two ready bake baguettes.

When you come back from store the butter should be soft.

Add herbs as you like to butter.

Go back to store an buy a fresh garlic.

Once you are home, crush two or three large gloves according to your taste and add to herbal butter.

Pre heat oven as indicated on package of baguettes.

Take another two gloves of garic and thinly slice them.

Cut baguetts lenght wise and spread with herbal garlic butter.

Sprinkle with sliced garlic.

Refrigrate remaing butter for later use.

Once oven is at right temperature but garlic bread in oven and bake as long as indicated on package of baguettes.

During baking you may drink a beer.

Enjoy.

Brilliant recipe I particularly like forgetting the garlic on the first shop trip and being allowed to enjoy a beer during baking

Bread, butter, garlic and herbs - the ingredients are pretty standard ..... with varying levels of quality.

However, it's not just the ingredients, but the method and love involved in throwing them all together ....... much like the smoothest-smoking cigars are those that are rolled on the inner thigh of a Cuban virgin.

no herbs.

one loaf - ciabatta, baguette, whatever. Fresh out of the oven. Split vertically down the middle to half way. Put an entire block of butter at room temperature, two pinches of salt flakes and a broken up clove of raw garlic. Crush in your fist. Eat quickly with a bottle of good prosecco.

I also had Swiss-style Knoblibrot (spelled something like that) for the first time, at a festival a few weeks ago. Apart from the fact that it was slightly burnt, it was really, really good.

And as an added bonus, there was sooo much garlic on that thing, I think I'm good for warding off vampires for at least the next year or so.

Now if only I could find something to ward off evil witches...

A mirror ...... ?

No matter how healthy it is I find it terribly annoying when people reek of garlic at work which is why I only eat it at weekends.

And yes, I like the homemade best, too, fresh from the oven!

I'm afraid not - it's a one night a year thing (which is probably a good thing seeing as some of them start drinking at 4 and keep going until 2am)

Going to the lake party in Arbon later today hoping to eat the yummy garlic bread :P
