Name: Garlic bread with herbs


Description: Oven fresh bread with garlic and herb seasoning


Accomplice:
Wine and cheese

Recipe: For the dough we need all purpose flour, 3 tsp yeast, hot water, olive oil, salt , sugar and a pinch of baking soda. Add a tea spoon of water and sugar in 3 tsp of yeast and let it bubble for 10-15 min. In a large bowl stir in the yeast mix with flour, salt, baking soda and hot water make a soft dough. Add olive oil as and when required.
Let the dough rest for 2-5 hours or refrigerate over night.
You'll notice the volume of the dough increases twice its size. In a baking tin arrange the dough in desired shape.
You can roll it with some oil in shape of a
croissants. Smear some crushed garlic in olive oil and dry thyme or rosemary followed by egg white. Bake it for 20-30 min in a pre-heat oven at 350 temp.



Comments: You can you can add some crushed garlic in the dough itself. Make a dip with olive oil and balsamic vinegar to polish the bread off!
