| 1. In a medium size bowl add butter and allow butter to sit for a couple of hours to come to room temperature. You can also microwave until it is at room temperature as well, but do not allow butter to melt! | 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. | 3. Add the garlic and parsley to the butter and mix well. | 4. Rub the basil and oregano between the palms of your hands to release the flavor and throw in the bowl. Mix content of the bowl well. | 5. Remove about 1/3 of the Garlic Butter Spread to use later. | 6. Cut your bread in half the long way. Spread about 2/3 of the Garlic Butter Spread onto the halves of the bread. Place each half directly on your oven rack and bake for 10 minutes. | 7. Remove from oven and allow bread to cool until you can handle the loaves. | 8. Turn oven to broil. | 9. Slice bread into thick slices (about 2" thick). Place bread on cookie sheet and spread with the extra Garlic Butter Spread. | 10. Place cookie sheet in oven and broil bread slices for 3 - 5 minutes, or until nicely browned to your taste. Make sure to watch VERY carefully so bread does not burn. | 11. Place a large clean kitchen towel in a bread basket and wrap the towel over the bread until served but no more than a couple of minutes or bread could get soggy! | 12. In my house, this serves about 3 or 4 because we eat this bread like CRAZY! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
