Ingredients

1 tablespoon active dry yeast
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup minced onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon minced parsley
2 tablespoons margarine

Directions
1 In a large bowl combine the yeast, sugar, 1 teaspoon of
   the salt and 1 1/2 cups of the flour.
2 In a sauce pan combine the milk, water and 1/4 cup of
   the butter or margarine until 110 degrees F (38 degrees
   C). Add milk mixture and vinegar to the flour mixture and
   blend at low speed of the mixer until moistened. Beat at
   medium speed for 3 minutes.
3 Stir in 1 1/2 cups additional flour to form a sticky
   dough. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead adding
   1/2 to 1 cup more of flour until dough is smooth and
   pliable. Place dough in a greased bowl and let rise in a warm
   place until doubled in volume.
4 Punch down dough and roll into a rectangle shape about
   16x8 inches.
5 In a saucepan heat the onion, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon
   salt, parsley and 2 tablespoons butter or margarine until
   butter or margarine is melted. Spread over the dough
   rectangle and starting from the 16 inch side roll the dough up
   tightly like a jelly roll.
6 Place the bread seam side down onto a greased cookie
   sheet and let rise until doubled in sized.
7 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
8 Bake bread until golden brown about 20 to 30 minutes.
   Brush hot bread with melted butter and sprinkle with chopped parsley
