Recently I have been trying to be good and steer clear of eating too much bread. So I haven’t really been doing much baking. But the other day I got a real craving for some lovely garlic bread. You know the sort, plenty of garlic and flavour, and lovely and crispy. That extra bit of goodness that makes your pasta dish really sing. There is nothing like moping up tomatoey juice with lovely crisp garlic bread. But seeing as I am trying to be healthier stuffing a lot of garlic butter into bread didn\u2019t seem quite right. So instead I plumped for Garlic Bread Knots.<\/span><\/p>\n Beautiful and crispy knots of dough that when drizzled with garlic oil satisfied my craving completely.<\/span><\/p>\n I know what you are thinking \u2013 If you are just making Garlic Bread Knots then call the post that – we all got excited.<\/span><\/p>\n Well….<\/span><\/p>\n I have news…<\/span><\/p>\n Whilst I am tying bread knots, I am also ‘tying the knot’ with Monsieur from Scratch! \u00a0I know, you didn’t see that coming, well neither did I – he surprised me in Paris with the most wonderful proposal ever and I won’t leave you in suspense, obviously I said yes.
