Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 and 1/4 teaspoons Gefen Dry Yeast
3/4 cup warm water
1/4 cup sugar, divided
1/2 cup Gefen Soy Milk, warmed
1/3 cup oil
1 egg
4 and 1/2 - 5 cups flour, divided (I use whole-wheat pastry flour, such as Shibolim Whole Wheat Flour)
1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons oil (Bartenura Olive Oil may be used)
1 and 1/2 - 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
additional poppy seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water, adding one teaspoon of the quarter cup sugar. Set aside to proof for a few minutes.
  • Add the soy milk, oil, egg, remaining sugar, and two cups flour. Beat on medium speed for two minutes.
  • Stir in enough remaining flour, and the salt, to form a soft dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, about seven minutes.
  • Place in a greased bowl or bag, turning to grease the top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down. Roll into a 20- x 8-inch rectangle (50 x 20 centimeters). Cut in half lengthwise, forming two 20- x 4-inch (50- x 10-centimeter) rectangles.
  • For the filling, combine onion, oil, poppy seeds (use two tablespoons if you prefer a prominent poppy taste), and salt in a small bowl. Spread over dough in the center of each rectangle, down the length.
  • Fold rectangles in half lengthwise, bringing one end to the other. Pinch seams to seal, forming two ropes.
  • Gently place ropes side by side. Twist together and shape into a ring. Pinch ends together. Place on a baking sheet lined with Gefen Parchment Paper. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about one hour.
  • Fifteen minutes before end of rising time, preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Brush ring with egg. Sprinkle with additional poppy seeds. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown. If it browns too quickly, cover lightly with parchment paper while baking. Remove from pan and cool.

ONION POPPY SEED RING



Onion Poppy Seed Ring image

A family recipe used for Purim.

Provided by Sherri Rochester

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes

Time 5h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (.25 ounce) package instant yeast
3 ¾ cups bread flour, divided
¾ cup warm water
2 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¾ cup chopped onion
⅓ cup poppy seeds, plus more for garnish
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 egg
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Whisk together the yeast and 3/4 cup of bread flour. Sprinkle the yeast mixture over warm water in a small bowl. The water should be no more than 100 degrees F (40 degrees C). Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam.
  • Combine the yeast mixture with 2 eggs, vegetable oil, sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a large mixing bowl; stir well to combine. Stir in half of the remaining bread flour until no dry spots remain. Stir in the remaining bread flour, a 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, then place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
  • Line and generously grease a baking sheet. Set aside. Mix onion, poppy seeds, 1/4 teaspoon salt, all-purpose flour, and butter together in a bowl. Divide onion mixture into 2 equal portions. Set aside. Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Roll each portion into approximately 30x4 inch strips. Spoon the onion mixture down the center of each strip lengthwise. Begin pulling the edges of the dough up to wrap around the filling, pinching the edges to close securely.
  • Arrange the strands side by side, seam side down. Beginning in the middle of each strand, braid the strands together by crisscrossing each side, making sure to keep the seam side down. Once both sides are braided, pinch the edges together to form a ring. Place the ring on the prepared baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Allow ring to rise until tripled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Arrange the oven rack to the lowest position. Beat 1 egg and 1 pinch of salt together in a bowl. Brush the braided ring with the egg mixture. Sprinkle with additional poppy seeds, if desired.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, turning the pan around half way through so the ring browns evenly, 45 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • To make the dough, use lukewarm milk or water. This will help the yeast to activate and rise properly. Milk also adds richness to the dough.
  • If you don't have instant yeast, you can use active dry yeast instead. Just be sure to proof it in warm water for 10 minutes before adding it to the dough.
  • Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two equal pieces. Roll out each piece into a 12-inch circle.
  • Spread the poppy seed filling evenly over one of the circles of dough. Top with the remaining circle of dough and pinch the edges to seal.
  • Cut the dough into 12 equal wedges. Twist each wedge twice and place it on a greased baking sheet.
  • Let the rolls rise for 30 minutes in a warm place. Then, bake them at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Enjoy the rolls warm or at room temperature.
