Title: Burgundy Bread
Categories: Bread
Yield: 4 Servings

1/2	c	Oil, olive
1	c	Wine, red, dry
1	ts	Garlic, minced
1	lb	Bread, French, quartered

Put a half cup of oil in a small sauce pan with the cup of red wine. Add the garlic and stir over medium heat bringing it all to a boil to eliminate the alcohol. When heated thoroughly, the mixture is done.

Take a loaf of French bread and slice it lengthwise in half so you have a top half and a bottom half. Then take the two halves and slice them in half again vertically so that you have four pieces altogether. (two tops and two bottoms)

Use a brush to paint your French bread pieces with the liquid mixture (generously). Broil the pieces of bread about 6" from a broiler (liquid painted side up) for about 5 minutes and serve.

If it's going to be a little while before you can serve the bread, you can wrap it in foil and keep it warm.
