Garlic bread is an American dish, popular among Italian Americans as a substitute as they couldn’t get olive oil in the US.
minus-squarewizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 years agoOk, but to address the jerk’s “point”, a carb based side for a carb based entree is not some uniquely American thing.

minus-squaresab@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoBruschetta is a completely different thing. I can’t remember ever having it with butter at all. Pane all’aglio is just Italian for “bread with garlic”. Italian cook books will market it as an American dish.
