Garlic Bread Fettunta

INGREDIENTS:

4 sl bread
country-style; sliced 1/4″
-thick
1 garlic clove; unpeeled
1/2 c extra virgin olive oil; or
-more
salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS:

Fettunta is a contraction of the word fetta, “slice,” and unta, “oily,”

1. Toast, grill, or broil the bread slices until lightly colored on both
sides.
2. Rub the garlic clove over the bread’s surface. The garlic will grate
itself on the hardened toast and the peel will disintegrate. Garlic lovers
should press hard.
3. Drizzle at least 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, barely enough for
any self respecting Tuscan, over each slice of toasted bread, sprinkle
with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
