- 1/2 tsp. dried parsley
- 4 tbsp. Parmesan cheese plus more for garnish if desired
Instructions

- Tie into a knot.
- Fold the top end into the middle of the bottom and the bottom end into the middle of the front, securing edges as well as possible.
- Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet or in a baking dish.

Notes
NOTE: Serve plain with soups, Italian entrees, salads or with marinara sauce to dip in.
NOTE: There is actually enough garlic and seasonings to make 36 knots if you add a couple more tablespoons of melted butter and use all three loaves in a 3-pack loaf of frozen white bread dough.
