In a bowl, combine warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, olive oil, minced garlic, and mixed herbs.

Mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place in a greased loaf pan.

Brush the top with melted butter and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool before slicing.
