Pour water into a large bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the water and let it sit without stirring until it dissolves.
- 2
Combine basil, savory, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl.
- 3
Stir 1 cup flour, 1 tablespoon of the herb mixture, sea salt, and 2 tablespoons oil into the yeast mixture until well combined. Add the remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms.
- 4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Shape it into a ball and place it in an oiled bowl. Turn the dough to coat the surface. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and let the dough rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- 5
Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Shape each portion into an irregular oval about 1 1/2 inches thick. Sprinkle cornmeal over 2 baking sheets and transfer the dough to the prepared sheets.
- 6
Brush each loaf with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle the remaining herbs on top. Make several slashes in the bread, cutting through the dough with a knife. Cover the loaves with clean dish towels. Let them rise again until the dough begins to puff, about 20 minutes.
- 7
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- 8
Place the baking sheets with the loaves in the preheated oven. Quickly splash a small amount of water onto the oven floor to create steam, then close the door. Bake the loaves until golden, about 20 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
