Rosemary flavor in a no-knead

Hi everyone -

I've been lurking here and there, maybe with one or two posts, always AMAZED by what I see! I'm very new to breadbaking, but I find it pretty addictive.

I stirred some fresh rosemary into the Lahey no-knead basic recipe. It looks and smells delicious, but I'm suspecting that there will be no rosemary flavor. Is there a suggestion on how to infuse more taste into the recipe? Is there a way to use rosemary-infused oil?

Thank you!

The rosemary flavor is present, and just the right amount :)

I'm gradually becoming a fan of rosemary (especially after I read about its effect on acrylamide in bread).

So.... How does it look? Show us the money!

 The rosemary smell and flavor is there, but those beautiful little rosemary leaves are not too visible unless you happen to slice right where there is one. Perhaps if I chopped the rosemary some so that the same volume could be dispersed more throughout the bread, I would also get the visual appeal.
