    What is rosemary garlic bread? 

    Rosemary garlic bread is made with garlic and rosemary seasoning. This garlic and rosemary skillet bread recipe tastes amazing because it uses skillet to bake the bread. Not only is the outside crunchy, but also the inside is soft. In addition, the combination of garlic and rosemary aroma will increase your appetite.

    What are the ingredients for garlic rosemary bread?

    The ingredients are bread flour, garlic, rosemary, salt, olive oil, sugar yeast, vital wheat gluten and dough enhancer. In this garlic rosemary bread recipe I like to add vital wheat gluten and dough enhancer because they make the bread texture even better. Even though you have leftover bread, once you warm them up in the microwave they still taste great.

    Cooking tips for how to make garlic rosemary bread:

    • Let the mixer run for 5 minutes. 
    • Greasy oil on the skillet and put the dough into the skillet. Let it rise double in size. 
    • My trick to speed up the time for dough rising is to preheat the oven at 200 F and turn off. Then, put the dough in the oven covered with a wet cloth and let it rise for 20-30 minutes.
    • Bake the bread on a skillet or cast iron at 450 F high temperature for 10 minutes, then take it out and brush some olive oil on top of the bread. Drop the temperature to 400 F and bake it for 10-13 minutes. This will create a crunchy outer layer and soft texture inside. 
    • Spray some water (squeeze the spray bottle for 10 times) before putting the bread into the oven. 
    • You can use fresh rosemary or dried rosemary. Personally, I like to sprinkle fresh rosemary on top of the bread and use dried rosemary for the dough.

    FAQs:

    What is vital wheat gluten and dough enhancer?


    Vital wheat gluten is the natural protein found in wheat. Adding a small amount of it to yeast bread, it improves the texture and elasticity of the dough. Also, vital wheat gluten flour can also be used to make a vegetarian meat, a substitute known as seitan. 

    Dough enhancer helps the bread dough to strengthen and improve its texture.  
     
    Personally, I suggest adding them. It really does make the dough texture different and the breadsticks are soft and fluffy like this garlic cheese breadsticks recipe.

    How can I make the bread soft inside and crunchy outside?

    Spray some water before putting the bread into the oven. Also use a skillet to bake at 450 F high temperature because cast iron skillet has great heat retention. As a result, it cooks food with even heat and keeps food moist and tasty. 

    Can I use fresh rosemary only?

    Yes, of course you can use fresh rosemary or dried rosemary. Personally, I like to sprinkle fresh rosemary on top of the bread and use dried rosemary for the dough.
