Trust me you do. I don't think I've ever tasted anything more delicious.
Let me tell you how to make it.
Start with about 1.5 lbs of the master recipe from Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day.
Flour your work surface and roll it out into a rectangle, roughly 10" x 14".
Go out to your garden and pick a packed cup of herbs. I used 60% basil, 30% oregano, and 10% thyme.
Throw the herbs in the food processor with 1/2 cup parmesan, and 4 or 5 cloves of garlic. Turn it on and stream in some olive oil until you've created a pesto. Slather it all over the dough, roll it up, stick it into a greased bread pan. Let rise for 1 hr, sprinkle with poppy seeds, give the top a few slashes, then bake for 25-30 minutes at 425.
Oh my.
Trust me, you've never had bread this good in your life.
