Cottage Cheese Dill Bread

 

1 package yeast
1/4 cup warm water

Put a dash of sugar into the warm water and sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it set for 10 minutes or so, until it looks foamy

Put the yeast mixture into your mix master and add
 
1/4 c flour
1/4 t baking soda
2 T sugar
1 t salt
2 T grated onion  or chives
1 t dried dill or tablespoon fresh dill
2 T butter
 
Beat 2 minutes and add:
 
1 cup warm cottage cheese
1  egg
1/2 cup flour
 
Beat 2 min and add:
1 1/2 cups flour
This will be a stiff but sticky batter. Take it out of the mix master and roll it on floured counter, knead a little. Place in a well-buttered quart-sized casserole dish. Cover with greased wax paper and a cloth and let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes.
