DELICIOUS ROSEMARY BREAD

Steps:

• Dissolve the sugar in warm water in a medium bowl, and mix in the yeast. When yeast is bubbly, mix in salt, butter, 1 tablespoon rosemary, and Italian seasoning. Mix in 2 cups flour. Gradually add remaining flour to form a workable dough, and knead 10 to 12 minutes.

ROSEMARY BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• Tie the bundle of fresh rosemary together using butcher's twine. Pour 1/4 cup of olive oil into a small dish for basting. Using the rosemary bundle as a pastry brush, dip in the olive oil and brush the bread on both sides. Place the bread slices on the direct heat side of the grill to char on both sides, about 1 minute per side.
• Once both sides of the bread are charred, move the bread to the indirect heat side of the grill, place the rosemary bundle in between the bread slices, close the lid of the grill and cook until the bread is more crispy and golden brown on the outside, but still soft and chewy on the inside, 3 to 5 more minutes. Remove the bread slices from the grill and, while still warm, rub the entire surface with the garlic clove.
• Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the lemon zest and lemon juice to a small mixing bowl and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Dress the arugula with the olive oil dressing. Top the grilled bread slices with the arugula. Using a vegetable peeler, shave Parmesan over the top. Cut into rustic pieces, sprinkle with some charred rosemary leaves and serve.

GRILLED ROASTED GARLIC-ROSEMARY BREAD

Steps:

• Put the garlic, rosemary, and olive oil in a small skillet and heat slowly until the oil just begins to simmer. Turn the cloves over in the oil and saute for 10 minutes longer. Remove from the flame and let cool for 15 minutes.
• Remove the garlic cloves from the oil (reserve the oil) and mash them to a paste with a knife or mortar and pestle. Take the leaves off the rosemary sprig and finely mince them. In a bowl, combine the garlic paste, minced rosemary, and butter and stir until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut the baguettes in half lengthwise. Spread the cut sides with the seasoned butter and drizzle with a little of the oil used to bake the garlic. Sprinkle with the Parmesan, close the baguettes back up and wrap each in aluminum foil. Cook over medium heat on the grill or in a bed of slow coals for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into 2-inch-wide slices and serve immediately.

ALMOST-FAMOUS ROSEMARY BREAD

Steps:

• Stir the yeast, sugar and 1/4 cup warm water in a large bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer). Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, the flour, 1 1/2 tablespoons rosemary, the fine salt and 3/4 cup warm water; stir with a wooden spoon (or with the dough hook if using a mixer) until a dough forms.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead, dusting lightly with flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. (Or knead with the dough hook on medium-high speed, adding a little flour if the dough sticks to the bowl, about 8 minutes.)
• Brush a large bowl with olive oil. Add the dough, cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until more than doubled, about 2 hours.
• Brush 2 baking sheets with olive oil. Generously flour a work surface; turn the dough out onto the flour and divide into 4 pieces. Working with one piece at a time, sprinkle some flour on the dough, then fold the top and bottom portions into the middle. Fold in the sides to make a free-form square. Use a spatula to turn the dough over, then tuck the corners under to form a ball. Place seam-side down on a prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, putting 2 balls on each baking sheet. Let stand, uncovered, until more than doubled, about 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the loaves 10 minutes; brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the kosher salt and the remaining 1/2 tablespoon rosemary. Continue baking until golden brown, about 10 more minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool. Serve with olive oil seasoned with pepper.
