Garlic, categorized as both an herb and a vegetable has being used in cooking since 3150 BC. In average North American's consume 2 pounds of garlic a year. On top of adding big flavours to food, garlic is a health hero, as it is known to lower blood pressure, reduce incidences of some types of cancer and can help treat acne.
I have tried this Hummus Garlic Bread recipe from Sabra's website, which is a wonderful way to get all the garlic flavour in garlic bread without using butter.
Slice French bread in half length wise and set aside. Mix Sabra Roasted Garlic Hummus and garlic together in a small mixing bowl. Spread the hummus mixture on French bread halves. Place the bread on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Preheat the broiler. Broil the bread on a wire baking rack located in the middle of the oven, not too close to the broiler. Broil for about 2 to 5 minutes until the edges are crispy and the cheese is browning. Watch the bread closely as broilers vary in their timing. Cut each half of bread into quarters and serve warm.
The smell of garlic can be removed from your hands by running them under cold water while rubbing a stainless steel object.
Garlic was so highly prized in the ancient world that it was even found in Tutankhamen's tomb.
The word garlic comes from the Anglo-Saxon words ‘gar’ meaning spear and ‘lac’ meaning plant.
