Add 7.5 cups of hard white wheat flour to the yeast mixture.

Add 4 teaspoons of salt.

Add 4 tablespoons of olive oil.

Mix the ingredients in a stand mixer with a dough hook or by hand until a solid ball forms.

Shape the dough into knots and place them on a lined baking sheet.

Cover the knots loosely with saran wrap and let them rest for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

After 30 minutes, place the knots in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes.

While the knots are baking, chop 1 bulb of garlic.

In a saucepan, melt 2 sticks of salted butter over low heat.

Add the chopped garlic to the melted butter and stir.

Add garlic powder, parsley, and a touch of salt to the butter and garlic mixture.

Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 5 to 10 minutes to infuse the flavors.

Once the knots are done baking, remove them from the oven.

In a large bowl, pour the garlic butter mixture over the garlic bites and toss to coat.

Brush the garlic butter mixture over the larger garlic knots.
