(bread machine dough cycle)

1 cup water
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup small curd creamed cottage cheese
3 1/2 cups Gold Medal Better for Bread flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon dill seed
1 tablespoon instant minced onion
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons bread machine or quick active dry yeast
1 teaspoon instant minced onion
1 teaspoon dill seed

Measure carefully, placing all ingredients except 1 teaspoon instant minced onion and 1 teaspoon dill seed in bread machine pan in the order listed.

Select Dough cycle. Do not use Delay cycle.

Remove dough from pan, using lightly floured hands. Cover and let rest 10 minutes on lightly floured surface.

Grease large cookie sheet.

Shape dough into 12x4-inch oval, tapering both ends slightly. Place on cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in warm place 30 to 45 minutes or until double. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.)

Heat oven to 375 degrees F.

Spray water over loaf; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon instant minced onion and 1 teaspoon dill seed. Make long slash, 1/4 inch deep, down center of loaf, using sharp knife.
