THE BEST GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

ANGEL OF DEATH CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Chop 1/2 inch off of the top of the garlic head, just enough to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in aluminum foil.
• Roast in the preheated oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes.
• Measure out 2 tablespoons of roasted garlic and press with the side of a knife to smooth each clove into a paste.
• Beat ricotta cheese with an electric mixer in a medium bowl until soft. Add Gorgonzola and mix until smooth. Beat in cream until thickened, then add salt and garlic paste and mix until combined.
• Lay the sage leaves, bottom side-up, onto the center of the cheese cloth in a pattern. Carefully spoon the cheese mixture over the leaves, then gather and tie off the ends of the cheesecloth, forming the cheese into a shape.
• Move to a strainer over a dish and allow to drain for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator.
• Carefully unmold the cheese on the serving plate, with the sage leaves facing up.
• Lightly toast the chopped walnuts in a skillet over low heat until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool, about 5 minutes. Gently press the walnuts onto the cheese spread. Serve at room temperature.
