Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup warm water (105-115°F)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter or oil, melted
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 egg, beaten (optional, for egg wash)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yeast: In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture, milk, and melted butter. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Add shredded cabbage and mix until evenly distributed.
- Knead the Dough: Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add flour if needed to avoid stickiness.
- First Rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Shape and Second Rise: Punch down dough and shape into a loaf. Place in a greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush loaf with egg wash (optional). Bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 190-200°F (88-93°C).
- Cool: Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For best flavor, use fresh, finely shredded cabbage.
- Ensure your yeast is active by observing for foam during proofing.
- Do not overmix the dough to prevent a tough bread texture.
- Cool the bread slightly before slicing to prevent crumbling.
