                        Bread:
   1       c            Buttermilk
     1/4   c            Water
     1/4   c            Butter
   4       c            All-purpose flour
   2       tb           Sugar
   1       ts           Salt
   2       pk           Active dry yeast
   1       ts           Poppy seeds
                        Filling:
   2       tb           Butter
     1/2   c            Onion; minced
   1       tb           Parsley; chopped
   1       cl           Garlic; minced
     1/2   ts           Salt

  In a small saucepan, heat milk, water, and butter until very warm.
  In a large bowl combine heated liquids, 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar,
  salt, and yeast. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. Stir in additional
  1-1/2 to 2 cups flour to form a soft dough. On a floured surface,
  knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place
  dough in a greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm place for 30
  to 45 minutes or until doubled in size. Grease a 12 cup fluted tube
  pan; sprinkle with poppy seeds. In a small saucepan saute onion in
  butter until lightly browned; stir in remaining filling ingredients
  Punch down dough; roll out to a 16x8" rectangle. Spread filling to
  about 1" from edges. Start with the longer side, roll up tightly
  and seal edge. Form into a circle and seal ends. Place in prepared
  pan. Cover and let rise about 15 minutes or until doubled in size.
  In a preheated 400 F oven bake 20 to 30 minutes or until golden
  brown. Remove immediately from pan.
