Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for kneading
  • 1½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons dill weed
  • 1 tablespoon caraway seed
  • 1 tablespoon dehydrated onion

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375-degrees.
  • In a small bowl, stir the apple cider vinegar into the milk. Set aside while preparing the dry ingredients.
  • In a large bowl, add the flour, salt, baking soda, dill weed, caraway seed, and dehydrated onion. Stir well to combine.
  • Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir well until a soft, shaggy dough forms.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle additional flour over the dough's surface.
  • Hand-knead the dough for approximately 2-3 minutes until the dough is smoothish and no longer sticky (adding a little more flour, if needed).
  • Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Use a sharp paring knife or a bread lame to slash an X onto the bread's top that is at least ¼" in depth.
  • Bake for 50 minutes or until it is golden brown in color and sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Cool at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
