About Homemade garlic bread

Homemade Garlic Bread is a beloved comfort food with roots in Italian cuisine, often served as an appetizer or side dish. Made by spreading a mixture of butter, minced garlic, and fresh parsley onto slices of crusty baguette or Italian bread, it’s then toasted until golden and fragrant. Some variations include olive oil, cheese, or additional herbs for enhanced flavor. While garlic offers health benefits such as supporting immune function and reducing inflammation, the butter and white bread base contribute higher amounts of saturated fat and refined carbohydrates. For a healthier twist, whole-grain bread or olive oil can be used as substitutes. Rich in bold garlic flavor and irresistible aroma, this classic dish is perfect for pairing with soups, stews, or pasta, making it a universally loved addition to the table.
