      Title: Father Dominic's Herbal Encouragement Bread
 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.
