“What do you need to make dill bread?”/“Dill dough.”

A risqué riddle about dill bread is:
 
Q: What do you need to make dill bread?
A: Dill dough (dildo).

 
The joke has been cited in print since at least 1990.
 
Similar “dill” and “dildo” puns include “McDonald’s is making a deep fried pickle covered in batter. They are calling it Mc Dill Dough” and “What do you call a deer that eats pickles?”/“A dill doe.”
