  • About

You can choose your own herb mix for this bread. Use one or any combination of parsley, basil, chervil, Spanish oregano, thyme, or marjoram. Grind the black, white, or red peppercorns in a hand grinder; you want coarse pieces. This bread can be used either the day it is made or day-old for poultry stuffings.

Ingredients

1½-pound loaf

  • 1⅛ cups water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
