Servings: persons

2 cups finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon dried whole basil
1 teaspoon dried whole oregano
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
6 cups bread flour, divided
2 packages active dry yeast
2 cups very warm whole milk (120u00b0 to 130u00b0)
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons bread flour, divided
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon water

1
Saute onion, basil, and oregano in butter in a skillet over medium heat until onion is tender. Set aside. Combine 2 cups flour and yeast; stir. Add milk to flour mixture, beating at low speed of an electric mixer. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Add onion mixture, cheese, sugar, and salt. Stir in enough of the remaining 4 cups flour to make a soft dough.
2
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons flour over work surface. Turn dough out; knead until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85u00b0), free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled.
3
Punch dough down; divide in half. Divide each half into 3 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 16-inch rope. Braid 3 ropes together on a greased baking sheet, pinching ends to seal; tuck ends under. Repeat procedure with remaining ropes.
4
Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 20 minutes or until doubled. Combine egg and water; brush over loaves. Bake at 350u00b0 for 35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped. (Cover with aluminum foil the last 15 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning, if necessary.)
