CHEDDAR-DILL BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until crumbly; stir in the cheese and dill. In a small bowl, beat egg and milk; pour into dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. (Batter will be very thick.) Pour into a greased 8x4-in. loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until bread tests done. Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

COTTAGE DILL BREAD

Steps:

• Measure ingredients into the machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer. Select the Basic Bread cycle.

CHEDDAR-DILL BREAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Mix flour, baking powder, salt and dill weed in large bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese.
• Whisk eggs and milk until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Spoon into 9x5-inch loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately remove bread from pan; cool completely on wire rack.

TASTY DILL BREAD

Steps:

• Make the dough: In a medium bowl, sprinkle the yeast over 1/2 cup warm water (about 110 degrees F) and gently shake the bowl to help the yeast mix with the water. Set aside until dissolved, about 10 minutes.
• In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the bread flour with the shallots, fresh dill, dill seeds, fennel seeds, sesame seeds, honey, molasses, wheat germ, salt and pepper. Mix on medium-low speed to blend. Mix in the cottage cheese and egg.
• Add the yeast mixture and mix to incorporate. Transfer the dough to a greased bowl. Cover with a towel and put in a warm place until doubled in volume, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours.
• Grease an 8-inch loaf pan with butter. Gently push the air out of the dough. Put the dough squarely in the pan and cover it with the towel again. Leave in a warm place to rise for 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bake the bread: Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake the loaf until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean or the internal temperature of the bread reaches 200 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and unmold. Let the bread rest on a rack for at least 30 minutes before cutting. (Or, if you're like me, tear off the end and nibble on it immediately as you wait for the rest of the loaf to cool! The crust is addictive.)

DILL BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Proof the yeast in the lukewarm water with the sugar.
• In a saucepan, warm the cottage cheese until lukewarm, and add to the yeast sponge. Then add the egg, lightly beaten, the grated onion, melted butter, salt, baking soda, dill seeds and fresh dill.
• Stir until well blended, then add just enough flour to make a rather soft dough.
• Put the dough into a large buttered bowl, cover with a towel and place in a warm spot to rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
• Remove the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for a couple of minutes.
• Then place in a large buttered (9" by 5') loaf pan.
• Cover and let rise for about 30 minutes.
• Then bake in the oven for about 50 minutes or until the bread has turned light brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
• Cool wrapped in a towel.

SAVORY MONKEY BREAD

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

SAVORY SCALLION QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place an UNGREASED 10" diameter castiron skillet in the oven while the oven is preheating.
• In a medium size bowl combine the white flour and whole wheat flour. Add the baking powder and salt, stirring well.
• In a separate bowl, combine the oil, plain yogurt, green onions, dill if using, and black pepper. Blend the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture thoroughly to make a soft dough.
• On a floured cutting board, knead the dough about 5 times and pat into a round loaf. Remove castiron skillet from oven and carefully and lightly grease the skillet with butter or oil.
• Place the shaped dough into the castiron skillet, spreading and flattening out the dough to fill up the pan almost to the edges. Brush on egg wash or melted butter and bake for about 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
• Serve warm.
