Savoury Onion
Home-grown crops can be the ingredients for many good things, including loaves of bread.
Ingredients
7–8 cups flour
2 tbsp dry yeast
2 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
2 large diced onions, sweated in butter
3 cups (or as required) of tepid water
chopped fresh herbs
Method/Steps
Combine the yeast with 1/2 cup of water and a pinch of sugar. Leave to foam. Pour this along with 3 cups of tepid water into a mixing bowl. Add some of the flour and beat. Add the oil, sugar and salt and more flour, using a dough hook if you have one.
Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, adding flour to prevent sticking. Sweat the onions in butter and add to the dough, along with the herbs.
Place dough in a greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in size. Punch down and divide in half, shape into loaves, cover and let rise. Bake in a 400˚F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the loaves are golden brown. Brush with an egg wash if you like shiny loaves.
