    Categories: Breads, Dairy, Herbs, Vegetables
    Yield: 1 Loaf

    1/4 oz Env Fleischmann's Active Dry
    - Yeast
    1/4 c Lukewarm water
    8 oz Dairy sour cream
    1 lg Egg
    1 tb Oil
    2 ts Honey
    1/4 ts Baking soda
    1 ts Salt
    1/4 c Minced onion
    1/2 ts Dried thyme
    4 1/2 c All purpose unbleached
    - flour; divided

    Dissolve yeast in warm water in small bowl. Let stand 10
    minutes, or until foamy.

    Heat sour cream in a saucepan or microwave oven to
    115ºF/46ºC. Pour warm sour cream into medium bowl. Add
    egg, oil, honey, baking soda, salt, onion and thyme;
    stir until thoroughly mixed.

    Add yeast mixture; stir to mix. Add 4 cups of the flour,
    1 cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
    Turn out dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead
    gently 1 minute. Let dough rest 10 minutes; this resting
    period helps the dough to firm up.

    Knead 4 minutes, adding small amounts of remaining flour
    as needed to keep dough manageable. The dough will be
    elastic but slightly sticky. Rinse and dry bowl, then
    oil surface of dough and place dough in bowl. Cover with
    a cloth and let rise in a warm, draft-free place about 1
    hour, or until doubled.

    Punch down dough. Knead briefly to expel large air
    bubbles. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces. Roll each
    piece into an 18" rope. Braid the ropes to form a
    loaf; tuck the ends underneath. Place loaf on lightly
    greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise about 30
    minutes, or until doubled. About 15 minutes before end
    of rising time, set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

    Bake loaf 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and
    bread sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from baking
    sheet and let cool on wire rack 15 minutes, then brush
    top and sides of loaf with melted butter, if desired.
