Bread with garlic and olive oil is a simple yet flavorful dish rooted in Mediterranean cuisine. It typically consists of crusty bread drizzled with olive oil and rubbed or topped with freshly minced garlic. Olive oil, a cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet, is rich in healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, which can support heart health and reduce inflammation. Garlic adds a robust flavor while providing potential immune-boosting and antimicrobial properties thanks to its active compound, allicin. While this dish is nutritionally beneficial, it can be calorie-dense depending on the type and amount of olive oil used. Additionally, some versions incorporate more salt or butter, which may lessen the health benefits. As a savory snack or accompaniment, it offers a wholesome balance of taste and nutrients when enjoyed in moderation.
