Potato Herb Bread

Everyone agrees my garden-fresh chives add fabulous flavor to this moist and tasty bread. Plus, the green flecks are quite pretty.—Diane Hixon, Niceville, Florida

32 ServingsPrep: 20 min. + rising Bake: 30 min.

Ingredients

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of potato soup, undiluted
1 cup hot water
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk powder
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup minced chives
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crushed
6 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in warm water.
Let stand for 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the soup, hot water, milk powder, sour
cream, chives, butter, salt, tarragon, yeast mixture, remaining
sugar and 5 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining
flour to form a stiff dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about
6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the
top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
