Ingredients
  • 1 package Dry yeast (regular)
  • 2 cup Bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Dry skim milk
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 md Egg (plus 1 egg yoke)
Directions
  1. 1
    In a small bowl, combine warm water (about 1/2 cup, 110&# 194;°F/43°C) and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. 2
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the bread flour, salt, and dry skim milk.
  3. 3
    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the yeast mixture, softened butter, whole egg, and egg yolk.
  4. 4
    Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then knead on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if too sticky, or water if too dry.
  5. 5
    Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  6. 6
    Punch down the dough and divide into three equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope.
  7. 7
    Braid the three ropes together, pinching the ends to seal. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. 8
    Cover and let rise again for 30-45 minutes until puffy.
  9. 9
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush the loaf lightly with a beaten egg wash for a golden finish.
  10. 10
    Bake for 25-30 minutes until the bread is deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  11. 11
    Let cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
