I've never made garlic bread before, so I was interested in how this book made it. A lot of recipes simply put garlic butter on the bread after it is done baking, in order to turn it into garlic bread. This recipe actually uses garlic that has been blanched, crushed, and then put into melted butter. You take that and throw it into the mixer while adding your usual ingredients. It was very easy to make and even easier to add more garlic if I wanted to. I used three loaves in this bread and it doesn't have as much garlic flavor as I wanted, but it's not over powering either, which I'm happy about. The aftertaste of this bread has a lot of garlic however, so maybe that's where all the secret garlic flavor lies. We'll be getting to sourdoughs here in a bit, don't worry.
