Notes for Getting It Right
- Use the best olive oil you can afford.
- Rub the garlic on hot toast.
- Use one clove for four slices.
- Top with chopped tomato for a variation.
Ingredient Swaps
- An eighth of a teaspoon of garlic powder per clove is the stand-in usually given when you are out of fresh garlic; it will not brown the same way, and it burns easily, so add it with the liquid.
Serving Suggestions
