Green Garlic Toast

Just in case you didn’t finish your Bench Flour Bakery loaf from last week, we’ve got a savory toast option for you. It’s a great snack to share or keep all to yourself.

Recipe

Servings: 8 servings

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • Slices of crusty bread

  • 1/2 cup (stick) of unsalted butter, softened

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

  • 2 -1/2 tablespoons chopped young green garlic stalks, white and green parts

  • 1 tablespoon minced chives

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • Large pinch of red chile flakes

  • Regular garlic clove, halved

Instructions

  1. Heat the broiler. Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and broil them, flipping them halfway through cooking time, until golden on both sides. Keep warm.

  2. In a bowl, stir together the butter, cheese, green garlic, chives, pepper, salt, and chile.

  3. Rub the toast with the cut side of the regular garlic clove, then spread with the green garlic butter. Broil toast again for 30 seconds to 2 minutes, until the tops lightly brown and the butter melts. Serve hot or warm.

Recipe Notes

Pro Tip: Get creative! If you have any other herbs or chilies in your pantry you like, mix them in.
