My mother-in-law first made this bread and oh.my.goodness. It is incredible. It is sooo soft from the cottage cheese that is in it and the combonation of the onion and dill makes for one awesome loaf of bread. It is perfect with just some butter spread on it, or you can use it for a sandwich, or with some soup. However you eat it, it is so tasty.
Onion Bread
1 pkg. yeast (about 1 Tbsp.)
1/4 c. warm water (about 120 degrees)
1 c. lukewarm cottage cheese (just heat it on the stove til warm)
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. dried minced onion
1 Tbsp. butter
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 unbeaten egg
2 tsp. dill weed
2 1/4 to 2 1/2 c. flour
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 40-50 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately brush the top with butter.
