Garlic fingers are a dish made from pizza dough, butter, garlic, and cheese, cut into long strips and often served with marinara sauce. They are popular in Wisconsin and can be found in many restaurants or made at home.
Garlic fingers are created from the same type of dough as pizza and are usually made with melted butter, garlic, and various types of cheeses. Originally an Atlantic Canadian dish, garlic fingers are very similar to pizza because the pie is round and about the same size as a typical pizza pie. Unlike pizza, however, this dish is cut into long strips rather than triangular slices. Different dipping sauces can also be used for fingers.
The dough used to make garlic fingers is the same type of dough used for pizza and contains flour, salt and baking powder. Toppings typically include butter, garlic, and melted cheeses. Other toppings like dill, parsley, greens, and bacon can also be added to the pie. While marinara sauce isn’t usually included in the garlic finger recipe, the long strips or “fingers” are often dipped in marinara sauce when served. Garlic fingers are often served with pizza or other Italian dishes.
While this dish is eaten all over the world, it is quite popular in Wisconsin. Garlic fingers are sometimes referred to as french fries, especially in the United States and Canada. Similar to pizza and breadsticks, this dish can be prepared in a number of ways. The pie can include many types of cheeses such as mozzarella, cheddar and goat cheese or it can include no cheese at all as a topping. When the cheese isn’t incorporated into the pie, the fingers are normally made with just fresh garlic and butter.
Tomato or marinara sauce is the most popular dipping seasoning for garlic fingers, but there are other sauces that can be used. Many people like to dip their fingers in ranch dressing, garlic dip, or hot sauce. If the fingers are not topped with cheese, they are sometimes dipped in cheese or cream-based sauces. Many prefer to eat the garlic strips without any sauce or dipping as well.
Garlic fingers can be found as menu items in many restaurants across the United States and Canada. It is common for restaurants to serve pizza, bread sticks and garlic strips. Fingers can also be found in the frozen food section of many grocery stores and markets. Many people prefer to make their own garlic fingers at home, which can be both cheaper and healthier than buying them at the store or eating them at restaurants.
