Ingredients
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh Italian parsley
6 cloves garlic, grated on a rasp
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 to 2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
One 16-ounce sourdough boule, sliced 1-inch thick
Directions
Special equipment:
nonstick aluminum foil- Make the spread. In a medium bowl, mix the butter, parsley, garlic, scallions, red pepper flakes and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Prepare and bake the bread. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Keeping the integrity of the shape of the loaf in mind, evenly apply the butter mixture to one side of each slice of bread. Reassemble the loaf upright to form the boule shape on top of a sheet of nonstick aluminum foil. Pull the long sides of the aluminum foil over the top of the boule, using the foil to keep the slices together. Set the bread perpendicularly on top of another piece of foil; again pull the long sides over the exposed sides of the boule. Leave the top open to expose the top crust of the loaf. Place on a sheet pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Unwrap and cut the slices in half. Serve.
