Pan de Ajo, or garlic bread, is a savory bread originating from European cuisine, particularly Italian traditions, and enjoyed worldwide. Made from a baguette or Italian loaf, it is sliced and spread with a mixture of softened butter, garlic, parsley, and sometimes olive oil. The bread is toasted or baked until golden, creating a flavorful and aromatic side dish. While garlic is rich in antioxidants and has potential heart-health benefits, the butter and oils used in preparation can add saturated fats and calories to the dish. Modifications like reducing butter, using whole-grain bread, or incorporating heart-healthy oils like olive oil can enhance nutritional value. Pan de Ajo is a popular companion to pasta, soups, and salads, adding a bold taste to meals while offering some nutritional benefits when enjoyed in moderation.
