1
36 oz (1020 grams) of French bread is about 2 baguettes. Chop celery, or optionally only use celery tops if you don't want the crunch.
2
Blend cheese and butter in processor until smooth. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before using.)
3
Preheat broiler. Broil bread crust side up until crisp. Turn and broil cut side until light brown. Spread cheese mixture over cut side of bread. Sprinkle liberally with pepper. Broil until cheese bubbles and begins to brown. Remove from broiler and sprinkle bread with celery. Cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
