Bread with Herb Butter

Bread with Herb Butter
Martha Stewart

Creamy herb butter is simple to make and store; roll the extra butter in waxed paper and freeze to use on bread, veggies, or fish at a later date.

Recipe by Lucinda Scala Quinn.

Ingredients

Serves 6.

* 2 sticks unsalted butter
* A few tablespoons parsley, chopped
* A few tablespoons oregano, chopped
* 1 baguette


Directions

1. Combine unsalted butter, parsley, and oregano to make the herb butter. Make a slit in the baguette 3/4 of the way through, making sure not to cut all the way through. Spread some herb butter into each of the openings between the slices.
2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
3. Wrap the baguette in aluminum foil and bake it for15 to 20 minutes.
