Raw garlic mixed into softened butter and spread on French bread. The original Italian-American restaurant hack designed for speed, not tradition.
This is the original Italian-American restaurant version. Raw garlic will be sharp - this is intentional for the style.
Softened butter spreads without tearing the bread. Works best with day-old bread that has firmed slightly.
