Adding fresh herbs in no-knead Bread [closed] - Toppings on a Bread Slices

I am experimenting with the no Knead bread recipe and want to add herbs to the recipe. I have added fresh rosemary (great) and fresh oregano (not so) to the recipe.

What other herbs would you suggest?



Best Answer

I like to choose spices in bread to match or complement the spices in the main dish. For example, garlic salt and parsley to go with a spaghetti/lasagna.

It is best to use fresh spices for a better flavor. However, if you want to use ground spices, make sure you don't leave them on the shelf too long.
