Herb and Onion Bread

I like to substitute oregano for the rosemary because I'm an oregano freak. I usually add more herbs than it calls for.

Ingredients

Method

1
Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a small bowl, stirring gently to dissolve the yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
2
Heat milk in a small saucepan until just warm to the touch, then remove from heat and set aside.
3
Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl. Create a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and warm milk.
4
Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough begins to form, then knead by hand for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Shape dough into a round loaf and place on a greased baking sheet. Cover loosely with a damp cloth and let rise for 15 minutes.
