Ingredients

  • 750 g flour
  • 1 cube yeast (42 g)
  • 0.5 tbsp sugar
  • 5 sprigs thyme
  • 4 sprigs Rosemary
  • 50 g Parmesan
  • olive oil (for greasing the loaf pan)
  • 5 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Pour the flour into a bowl, make a well in the center and crumble the yeast into it. Add the sugar and stir the yeast with 3-4 tbsp lukewarm water until smooth. Cover the bowl with a cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes.

  2. 2.

    Rinse the herbs, shake dry, pluck off leaves and finely chop. Grate the parmesan finely. Grease a loaf pan with olive oil.

  3. 3.

    Knead the chopped herbs, olive oil, salt, baking soda, parmesan and about 300 ml lukewarm water into the pre‑rise dough until it becomes a firm dough that does not stick to the hands. Cover and let rise again for about 1 hour.

  4. 4.

    On a lightly floured surface knead the dough well, shape it long and place it in the loaf pan. Let it rise covered for another 20 minutes.

  5. 5.

    Preheat the oven to 200°C with both fan and top heating.

  6. 6.

    Score the dough lengthwise about 2 cm deep, brush with water and bake in the oven for about 50 minutes until golden brown.
