Notes
Use fresh garlic. Do not, I repeat, do NOT use jarlic. It's packed with preservatives and lacks that bold, fresh flavor. Grab a bulb and mince it yourself boos! And mince it fine. Big chunks of garlic can overpower the bread. Chop it down real fine so it melts right into the butter.
Soften the butter. Room temp butter blends everything together smoothly. No lumps, just a perfect spread.
If you want to brown the top of your bread even more, turn your broiler on for 1-2 minutes. But watch carefully so your bread doesn't burn!
