25 Sides for Potato Soup

Homemade bread

Let's start with bread. From quick and easy no-knead bread stirred within minutes to Greek or Turkish Bread, garlic, or cheese bread.

1. Spelt Bread - No-Rise, No-Knead Spelt Bread

This easy homemade spelt bread is absolutely amazing! I discovered this recipe about ten years ago, and I have made it hundreds of times ever since. All you have to do is grease a loaf pan, mix flour, seeds, vinegar, and yeast with water, stir with a spoon and bake the bread.

2. Vegan Garlic Herb Bread

3. Dutch Oven Rosemary Parmesan Bread

4. Easy Beer Bread

Any kind of beer is good, and any flavor your heart desires. Of course, beer can also be replaced with seltzer water, but the beer adds flavor, and you will like that.

5. Turkish Bazlama

I love Turkish bread of any kind, and this flatbread makes no exception. It's fantastic when served with soup. Bazlama is traditionally cooked on outdoor stoves over a wood fire in the villages of Anatolia. Still, you can quickly cook the flatbread at home on a good quality heavy-based pan or skillet.

11. Butterflake Rolls

Not only are they beautiful, but they taste delicious; in fact, you don't need to wait for a holiday occasion to whip up a batch.

The magic is all in the folding process. First, the dough gets rolled out, covered in butter, and folded, then the process is repeated twice more to get this pretty design and all of those flaky layers of delectable bread.

When bread is made with pesto, it is indeed a winner. It looks gorgeous and tastes fantastic, especially when served with flavored olive oil, hummus sauce, or soup. This delicious bread is made by adding a generous layer of pesto to the dough, which is then shaped in a braid.
