Procedure
***************
Generously grease a 1 1/2 or 2 quart casserole dish. In a large bowl,
combine 1 cup flour, sugar, onion, dill seeds, salt, baking soda and
yeast; blend well. In a small saucepan, heat cottage cheese, water and 1
tablespoon margarine until very warm (120-130) Add warm liquid and egg to
flour mixture. Blend with an electric mixer at low speed until moistened.
Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. Stir in remaining 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups
flour to form a stiff batter. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and cloth
towel. Let rise in a warm place until light and double in size, about
45-60 minutes. Stir down dough. Place in prepared casserole dish. Cover
and let rise in a warm place until light and doubled in size, 30 to 45
minutes. Preheat oven to 350. Bake 30-40 minutes or until deep golden
brown and loaf sounds hollow when lightly tapped. Immediately remove from
casserole dish and place on wire rack. Brush warm loaf with melted
margarine and sprinkle with coarse salt, if desired. Cool completely.
Makes 1 loaf.
