INSTRUCTIONS
In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, salt,
marjoram, thyme and rosemary. Heat milk, water and 1/4 cup butter until
very warm (120 to 130 0 F); stir into dry ingredients. Stir in egg and
enough remaining flour to make soft d
ough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to
6 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
Divide dough into three equal pieces. Roll each to 30-inch rope. Braid
ropes; pinch ends to seal. Tie knot in center of braid; wrap ends around
knot, tucking both ends under knot to form a round loaf. Place on greased
baking sheet. Cover; let rise in wa
rm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 20 to 40 minutes.
Bake at 375 0 F for 30 to 35 minutes or until done, tenting with aluminum
foil after 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Melt remaining butter; brush
on loaf. Sprinkle with marjoram, thyme and rosemary, if desired. Remove
from pan; cool on wire rack.
Makes 1 loaf
