Baking can be relaxing and is definitely delicious. Take a basic bread recipe and add your favorite herbs, to make your own signature loaf. There are herbs that go very well with the rich, yeasty flavor of homemade bread. Use any combination that sounds good.
For savory breads, try these herbs:
- Basil
- Caraway
- Chives
- Dill
- Lovage
- Poppy seed
- Rosemary
- Thyme
For sweeter loaves, try these herbs:
- Anise
- Fennel
- Poppy seed (tastes great with any bread recipe)
Start with 2 to 3 teaspoons of herbs per loaf. If you like the flavor, increase the amounts as you try the recipe again.
