Yield 12 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1 cup 2% cottage cheese

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh dill and chives will give your bread the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the amount by half.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the bread tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, then stop.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. A warm place will help the dough rise quickly. You can place the dough in a warm oven (turned off) or in a sunny spot.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature. A high temperature will give the bread a crispy crust and a soft interior.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing. Letting the bread cool will help it to set and will make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Dill and chive bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. This bread is full of flavor, thanks to the fresh dill and chives. It is also soft and fluffy, thanks to the buttermilk and butter. Whether you are serving it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, dill and chive bread is sure to be a hit.
