For the garlic, the best flavors come from using the smaller sized garlic. They are packed with the pungent garlicky flavors. The larger sized garlic cloves are less pungent than the smaller ones. Having said that use the garlic variety that is easily available to you.

Using a homemade bread is always the best thing to do. But if you have a bakery or store-bought one, make sure to use a fresh, good quality bread. Whole wheat, brown, sandwich, multigrain, white – any/all breads are good for this recipe.
