Ingredients:

8 tbsps

Unsalted Butter

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F

2

Use a bread knife to cut a cross-hatch pattern into the top of the bread, stopping short of cutting through to the bottom of the loaf (so the loaf holds together)

3

Melt the butter in a small skillet over low heat

4

Add the olive oil and garlic and cook, stirring often, until very pale golden, about 4 minutes

5

Stir in 3/4 teaspoon salt and the parsley

6

Remove from the heat

7

Gently separate the cubes of bread from the top of the loaf

8

Spoon some of the garlic butter in the cuts and spread it over the cut surfaces; use all but 2 tablespoons of the garlic butter for this

9

Slather the remaining garlic butter on top of the loaf

10

Distribute the Asiago between the cuts and on top

11

Wrap the loaf in foil and place it on a baking sheet

12

Bake the bread until heated through, about 10 minutes

13

Unwrap the foil and continue baking until slightly crisp on the outside, 5 to 7 minutes more

14

Serve immediately
