I've been wanting to bake my own bread at home and after quite some time searching the net for recipes, I came across this recipe. Modified the ratio of herbs/seasonings for more flavor.

  6. 1.5 cupswarm water

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Knead dough with hands, dusting with extra flour if dough is sticky until a soft smooth dough is formed

  4. 4

    Rest the dough in a well greased bowl, covered with an oiled cling wrap for 1 hour in a warm place. Dough should be more than doubled in size by now.
