Ingredients
garlic(each clove does about 4 bread pieces)
bread(amount depends on how much you want)
olive oil(I recommend different types depending on what herbs you use)
1tbs or so of rock salt(make sure it is still small enough to eat, but not fine)
Herbs(any kinds you want)
Olive Oil and Spice Key
Mushroom Sage:(this is my favorite type of garlic bread)Olive Oil: mushroom sage olive oil, Dry Herb: none, Wet herb: thyme(or sage)
Tuscan: Olive Oil: tuscan herb olive oil, Dry Herb,tuscan sunset(or oregano), Wet Herb: fresh oregano
Fungus Heaven:(I never actually made this, but it is an idea)Olive Oil: mostly normal, but some white truffle oil, Wet Herb: mushrooms, Dry Herb: italian black truffle salt
Normal: Olive Oil: normal olive oil, Wet Herb: none, Dry Herb: none
Recipe
pour a little bit of olive oil into the mortar and pestle, then add the garlic(make sure the cloves are peeled), smash the garlic, then add about half of the salt(when you are worried there is not enough salt for salting it, get more salt out) smash the salt into the garlic, put the bread on a plate(if you are only going to have a few pieces), or a metal tray(for the whole family), rub the olive oil onto the bread pieces, then with the mortar stick, rub the garlic onto the bread, if it does not look like their is enough, just repeat the process of the olive oil and the garlic, then add the salt, add about 5, 6, or 7 bits of salt(depending on the size of your bread, and the size of your salt), put the dry herbs on, then put the pieces in your toaster on medium(for a few pieces) or the oven on a low heat(for a whole bunch of pieces), the temp does not really matter, but you must watch to see when it is done, put the wet herbs on after it has cooled, serve and enjoy. (this is one of my favorite appetizers for a main meal, I hope it becomes one of yours as well)
I might get pictures for this later so stay tuned.
