Notes
Pep ’n Zest & Saltitude Cheesy Garlic Bread
Serves: 4–6
Prep: 10 minutes
Cooking: 12–15 minutes
Crispy, buttery garlic bread loaded with melted mozzarella and BlixSam Pep ’n Zest, then finished with a light shake of BlixSam Saltitude. Cheesy, garlicky, zesty and seriously lekker.
Ingredients
1 large French loaf or ciabatta
100 g butter, softened
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1½ tbsp BlixSam Pep ’n Zest – Lemon Pepper
2 cups grated mozzarella
½ cup grated cheddar
2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
BlixSam Saltitude – Salt & Vinegar, for finishing
Extra Pep ’n Zest, for finishing
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
2. Slice the loaf in half lengthways and place it cut-side up on a baking tray.
3. Mix the softened butter, garlic, olive oil, parsley and 1 tbsp Pep ’n Zest.
4. Spread the Pep ’n Zest garlic butter generously over the bread, right to the edges.
5. Combine the mozzarella and cheddar, then pile the cheese evenly over the bread.
6. Sprinkle the remaining ½ tbsp Pep ’n Zest over the cheese.
7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the cheese has completely melted and the edges of the bread are golden and crispy.
8. Switch the oven to grill for the final 1–2 minutes for a beautifully bubbling, lightly browned cheese topping.
9. Remove from the oven and immediately finish with a light shake of Saltitude.
10. Sprinkle with extra parsley, slice and serve piping hot.
💛 BlixSam Tip
Don’t go too heavy with Saltitude before baking. Add it after the cheesy garlic bread comes out of the oven so that distinctive salt-and-vinegar punch stays bright.
Pep ’n Zest + garlic butter + melted cheese + Saltitude = next-level garlic bread.
🧀 Buttery. Cheesy. Garlicky. Zesty. Salt with Attitude!
