Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1/2 cup water -- lukewarm
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon butter -- cut in bits
1/2 cup milk -- scalded
1/4 cup wheat germ -- untoasted
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup onion -- minced
1 teaspoon garlic -- minced
1 teaspoon fresh chives -- minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano -- minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme -- minced
1 cup white flour -- or as needed
In large bowl, sprinkle yeast over water, stir in honey and let stand
until foamy. Stir in whole wheat flour and beat vigorously about 3
minutes until air bubbles form.
Stir butter into milk to melt; let cool to lukewarm and add to yeast
mixture along with wheat germ, salt, onion, garlic and herbs. Blend well.
Add flour 1/2 cup at a time, continue to beat and scrape down the
sides (or use a stand mixer with dough hook). Batter should be stiff
and come up in one mass when lifted by mixing spoon.
Cover with tea towel and let rise in warm place for 90 minutes or
until treble in size. Stir down and spoon into a well-oiled 8.5 by
4.5 inch loaf pan. Cover with tea towel and let rise in warm place
for 1 hour or until almost double in size.
Place in oven, turn heat to 350F/180C (or preheat oven) and bake 35
minutes or until bread tests done. Turn out onto wire rack and cool
right-side up.
Note: the authors recommend starting the baking in a cold oven to get
extra rise. If you bake in a preheated oven reduce the baking time.
The authors make no suggestions, so take your best guess and test for
doneness.
