  • Preparation: 105 min
  • Cooking: 18 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (93 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 50 g Flour, bread (strong)
  • 15 g Milk, whole
  • 15 g Water
  • 1.2 g Yeast, fresh
  • 3 g Butter, unsalted
  • 0.5 g Malt extract
  • 0.3 g Salt
  • 4 g Egg (for brushing)
  • 4 g Poppy seeds

Method

  1. Dissolve the yeast and malt extract in the lukewarm milk and water.
  2. Add the flour, salt and soft butter and knead for 10 minutes into a smooth, firm dough. Cover and leave to rise for 45 minutes.
  3. Divide the dough into pieces of about 75 g, one roll each. Divide each piece into three and roll them into thin strands about 20 cm long.
  4. Plait the three strands into a small, tight braid and pinch the ends together. Set the braids on a tray lined with baking paper.
  5. Brush them with beaten egg, then press the tops into a plate of poppy seeds so they are thickly coated. Cover and leave to rise for 30 minutes. Heat the oven to 220 °C.
  6. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown, with a small tray of water on the oven floor for the first 5 minutes for a crisp crust.
  7. Cool on a rack. They are best eaten the same day, with butter.
