Cottage Dill Recipes

Steps:

• Measure ingredients into the machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer. Select the Basic Bread cycle.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, egg yolks, and 3/4 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and baking powder. Pour in the vegetable oil and cold water, and mix or knead into a smooth dough.
• Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface, and cut into 3 inch circles using a glass, can, or cookie cutter. Place a spoonful of the cottage cheese filling onto each circle. Fold in half, and pinch the edges together to seal.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the perogies into the water, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they float. Remove from water with a slotted spoon, and place on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet to drain excess water.

Steps:

• In a food processor bowl or blender container place all ingredients.
• Cover and process or blend until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
• Serve with vegetable dippers.

Steps:

• add all ingredients in this order.
• cook on"SWEET" cycle.

Steps:

• Blend and refrigerate for at least an hour prior to serving.
• Also low-fat/low-salt mayonnaise and cottage cheese can be used. For best results, I recommend Hellman's new olive oil recipe mayonnaise for this particular recipe. It has a much better flavor than their original mayo.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in bread pan in order suggested by your bread machine's manual.
• Select a "Basic" cycle and a "Medium" crust setting.
• When baking cycle is complete, remove bread from pan and place on rack to cool before slicing.
• Makes a 1 1/2lb loaf.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast and 2 teaspoons sugar in warm water; let stand 5 minutes. Combine cottage cheese and next 6 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; stir well. Gradually stir in enough flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface, and knead 8-10 minutes or until smooth and elastic (will be sticky). Place in a well-greased bowl, turning to coat . Cover and let rise in a warm place, free of drafts 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
• Punch down dough, and divide in half, shape each half into a loaf. Place in 2 well greased 8 1/2x4 1/2x3-inch loaf pans. Cover and let rise in warm, draft free area, 45 minutes or until doubled.
• Bale at 350°F for 30-35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped.
• Remove loaves from pans; brush with melted butter. Cool completely on wire racks.

Steps:

• In the bowl of electric mixer, gently combine the yeast, 1/4 cup flour, and water. Let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place the cottage cheese in the top of a double boiler full of boiling water, and stir until warm to the touch, or microwave until warm. Add the melted butter to the yeast mixture, and mix on medium speed for 2 minutes.
• Add the warmed cottage cheese, baking soda, sugar, salt, dill seed, onion, snipped dill, egg, and the remaining dry flour to the yeast mixture, and mix on high speed to make a stiff batter, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, cover, and set batter aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in bulk, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Spray an 8-inch cast-iron skillet generously with vegetable cooking spray, and set aside. Scrape out the batter, and pour it into the skillet. Spray plastic wrap with cooking spray, and place over the dough, pressing down on the wrap to even out the top of the dough. Lift the plastic wrap so it is not touching the surface of the dough, and let the dough stand in a warm place until doubled, about 25 minutes.
• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap, transfer the dough to the oven, and bake until golden brown, about 35 to 40 minutes. If the bread begins to get too dark, cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Remove the pan from the oven, and transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve the bread warm, cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Soften yeast in warm water. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt together and set aside. In saucepan heat the cottage cheese until lukewarm. Stir in shortening, sugar, onion, dill seed, dill weed, and baking soda. Pour this mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add yeast and well beaten egg and mix. Stir in the flour mixture a little at a time until a soft dough forms.
• Knead lightly on a floured surface until the dough is elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place about one hour. Punch down, cover and let rest about 10 minutes. Shape into a loaf and place into a greased 5 x 9 inch bread pan. Cover and let rise until double in bulk, about 30-40 minutes.
• Bake at 350°F for about 40 minutes. If the top browns too fast, cover with foil. Remove from oven, brush top with melted butter and remove from pan about 10 minutes later.
