About

This is a loaf to showcase fresh herbs, so don’t use dried here. For a spicier bread you can substitute chives for the watercress. Be sure to slice this bread with a serrated bread knife, since the crumb is delicate when the bread is fresh. Serve warm with fresh goat cheese for spreading, or with simple pasta dishes or roast chicken. Day-old, it is good toasted in thick slices or cubed for croutons.
