45 min | 15 min prep
SERVES 8 , 1 large loaf

- 1 teaspoon oregano
- Slice loaf, LEAVING CRUST INTACT, into slices.
- It is important NOT to slice through the bottom.

- Allow to sit on counter a while, so flavors travel all through the butter.

- When all slices are spread, use any leftover butter to spread the top of the loaf.
