Ingredients

milk (boiled for sterilization) 1 cup

sugar 3 tbsp

salt 1 tbsp

oil 1.5 tbsp

active dry yeast 2 tbsp

warm water 1/4 cup

onion (chopped) 1/2 cup

unbleached flour 6 cup

Instructions

Mix liquids

In a large bowl, combine the milk, sugar, salt, and oil. Cool until lukewarm.

Activate yeast

Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and add it to the milk mixture. Stir in the onion.

Knead dough

Beat vigorously for 10 minutes, gradually adding about 4 cups of flour, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

First rise

Place the dough in an oiled large bowl, turning to coat all sides with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.

Shape and second rise

Punch down the dough, divide in half, shape into loaves, and place in oiled loaf pans. Cover with a tea towel and let rise until doubled, about 20 minutes.
