Crusty Herb Bread
"This herb bread recipe is great as a tasty snack. You can also pair this yeasted bread recipe with your favorite vegetarian soups. It’s amazing how exciting fresh herb bread can be. And you can enjoy it at home. Use this spiced bread recipe as a bonding moment with your friends and family. It uses a spice blend that’s similar to Zaatar, a Middle-eastern spice blend. You can store the rested dough in the freezer for 3 weeks. Just make sure that it is wrapped well in cling film. Ground cumin would be an awesome addition to the Zaatar spice"
