Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon garlic salt

• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground paprika

In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic and parmesan cheese. Season with garlic salt, Italian seasoning, pepper and paprika. Mix until smooth.

Simple recipe makes great garlic bread. Leftovers go great on bar-b-que steaks, pasta, rice or potatoes. You can use any butter or margarine you like. Also, fresh or minced garlic in a jar works well. Adjust the amount of garlic to your taste.

Ingredients

• 4 garlic cloves
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 heaping cups 3/4-inch bread cubes, cut from a good quality baguette or Italian loaf
• Large pinch salt

Directions

Heat a large skillet over low heat. With motor running, drop garlic cloves through feeder tube of a food processor to mince. (A blender works as well.) Scrape down sides of bowl and add oil through feeder tube. Continue to process so that garlic releases its flavor into oil, about 30 seconds.

Strain garlic from oil through a fine-mesh strainer; reserve half of garlic for dressing and set aside remaining half for another use. You should have about 3 tablespoons garlic oil.

Raise heat under skillet to medium. Place bread cubes in a medium bowl. Drizzle 2 tablespoons garlic oil evenly over bread, along with a big pinch of salt; toss to coat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil; toss again.

Add bread cubes to hot skillet and toast, turning cubes and shaking pan often, until crisp and golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Return croutons to bowl and set aside to cool while preparing salad.
