I'm not sure what to do about the dill taste, you could try soaking it in the
water you're going to use for the bread and add the whole mix in. This
sometimes brings out the flavor in some spices.
But the onion problem can be solved by using fresh onions, not dried onions.
To me, dried onions have the flavor dried out of them also.
Hope this
helps.-------------------------------------------------------------------------
