Hi bod,
It's ekmek and not etmek (to do). Also it becomes ekmeği.
buğday ekmeği
çavdar ekmeği
tost ekmeği
I'm sure it is something else than ot ekmeği.
Ot has this main meaning: useless grass
It has also a slang meaning: dope

Well I got "ot" from the dictionary as the only suitable translation I could find for "herb" (as in the dried things you add to food when cooking).
"Herb bread" is simply plain bread but with a liberal sprinkling of dried mixed herb added to the dough before cooking. It therefore has the herbs right the way through the loaf - *YuMMy*

çavdar ekmeği is rye bread isn't it???
This is standard plain white bread with added dried mixed herbs. It is made from white flour - not from rye!

I haven't seen that kind of bread, but maybe in very big supermarkets like carrefour, there are many kinds of breads.
But then it should be "Otlu ekmek", since bread can't consist of mainly herbs, it can't be "ot ekmeği"
Zeytinli ekmek (zeytin: olive)
Çikolatalı ekmek (çikolata: chocolate)
etc.
Buğday ekmeği
Çavdar ekmeği
Because the bread consists of mainly these things.

I am not sure it is widely available in supermarkets anywhere - I have not seen it in the UK. The "herb bread" is a recipe of my own originally derived from one for Italian Herb Bread that I found in a book on breadmaking.
I suppose the question really is:
If a Turkish recipe says add "mixed herbs" to a meal (not necessarily bread) how would "herbs" be translated???
