1/2 c Oil, olive
1 c Wine, red, dry
1 ts Garlic, minced
1 lb Bread, French, quartered
Put a half cup of oil in a small sauce pan with the cup of red wine. Add
the garlic and stir over medium heat bringing it all to a boil to eliminate
the alcohol. When heated thoroughly, the mixture is done.
Take a loaf of French bread and slice it lengthwise in half so you have
a top half and a bottom half. Then take the two halves and slice them in
half again vertically so that you have four pieces altogether. (two tops
and two bottoms)
Use a brush to paint your French bread pieces with the liquid mixture
(generously). Broil the pieces of bread about 6″ from a broiler (liquid
painted side up) for about 5 minutes and serve.
If it’s going to be a little while before you can serve the bread, you
can wrap it in foil and keep it warm.
