This Roasted Garlic Rosemary No-Knead Bread will make your kitchen smell like an Italian bakery in the best of ways! Everyone has been stuck at home and baking bread has been a popular isolation activity. I made bread several times, but have to admit it was the sweetbreads I made the most. How did you go ? Did you make breads in lockdown? Maybe a sour dough bread?
