Can I use fresh rosemary instead of dried in bread?

You can use fresh–indeed, I prefer fresh. If you’re using a recipe that calls for dried herbs, use at least twice as much of the fresh to account for shrinkage the herb would have undergone during drying.

What Flavours go well in bread?

Can you use fresh herbs?

Fresh herbs are a perfect match for small-batch salad dressings and vinaigrettes. They round out the fatty and sharp flavors from the oil and vinegar (or citrus juice) with a vegetal note. A vinaigrette with fresh herbs will last for a week in the fridge before the herbs start to turn.

Does garlic powder inhibit yeast growth?

Don’t use fresh garlic as this can kill or retard the yeast and prevent your dough from rising properly.
