Step 1
You've probably already guessed that we start our preparation with the dough. As always, you need to mix yeast, water, salt, and sugar. Stir thoroughly and let it "rise" for an hour and a half in a warm place, covered with a towel.

Now comes the most interesting part, as we'll be adding the key feature of Italian bread. Slice the olives into small rings and add them to our dough. Then pour in the olive oil and finally add the Provencal herbs. Mix everything thoroughly using a mixer for 8 minutes.

We are moving on to the final stage of bread preparation – baking. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it into a baking pan. Make sure the dough fills about two-thirds of the pan's volume. Put the pan in a warm place and let the dough rise for another 40–50 minutes. After that, bake it in the oven for 40 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
