Description

Super soft oniony-dilly bread that will have you eating a whole loaf before you realize it.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Yeast
  • ¼ cups Warm Water
  • 1 cup Lukewarm Cottage Cheese (Warm In A Saucepan On Medium Heat)
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Dried Minced Onion
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 2 teaspoons Dill Weed
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 2-¼ cups Flour

Preparation

Put the yeast in large mixing bowl and add the water. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Add warm cottage cheese, sugar, onion, butter, dill weed, salt, baking soda, and egg. Mix to combine. Add flour until it makes a stiff dough. Cover and let rise until doubled. Stir it down and put into a greased loaf pan. Let it rise until doubled. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately brush the top with butter.

I’m sorry if I confused you. I used my kitchen aid mixer so it did the work for me. It is not a batter bread.

Making it! I love onion bread and I love dill bread, but have never thought to combine them. As I was quite entertained to find three rogue dill sprouts in my backyard last weekend (from a potted dill on the patio), it seems like this is the perfect opportunity to try this recipe. Just to be clear, is this a batter bread? No kneading required? Or have I misunderstood your instructions? I’m sure it will work out fine, I just didn’t want to bungle it on my first try. Thanks for the recipe, and for the gorgeous photo that drew me in.

This bread is very tasty; the dill and onion compliment each other perfectly. I used half of it to make delicious croutons. In fact, I would make this bread JUST to make croutons. I only needed 2 cups of flour. I used bread flour and added some vital wheat gluten to it as well.

Okay, did it on Sunday! This is spectacular bread. I’ll just get that out of the way up front. I took my mom a piece and she ate the whole thing even though we were on our way to lunch, and my husband has asked me to cut him pieces several times. It rose like an explosion up over the rim of the pan, and is so soft and tender inside that it just FEELS good to chew. The flavors of the onion and dill are perfect and don’t overwhelm, and I’ll definitely be keeping this recipe.

The only thing was that my dough was extremely wet and sticky. I use a scale so I don’t think I measured wrong, but after I added enough extra flour to make it manageable it was perfectly fine.

Thanks for a wonderful recipe.
