HERB-BUTTERED FRENCH BREAD

Categories     Bread     Bake     Quick & Easy     Basil     Summer     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 20

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups fresh basil leaves
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons drained capers
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
3 French bread baguettes, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Chop basil in processor. Add butter, capers, salt and generous amount of pepper and process until well combined. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring butter mixture to room temperature before using.)
  • Preheat oven to 500°F. Arrange bread cut side up on cookie sheets. Bake until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Spread cut surfaces with basil butter. Cut crosswise and serve.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect herbed French butter, use unsalted butter that is at room temperature. This will help the butter to absorb the flavors of the herbs.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Be sure to mix the butter and herbs together thoroughly. This will help to distribute the flavor evenly throughout the butter.
  • If you are using a bread machine, add the herbed French butter to the bread dough during the last 5 minutes of the kneading cycle.
  • If you are baking the bread in the oven, spread the herbed French butter on top of the dough before baking.
  • Serve the bread warm with additional herbed French butter.

Conclusion:

Herbed French butter bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy crust, soft and fluffy interior, and flavorful herbed butter, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
