• "It's a sweet bread, brilliant to eat in the morning for breakfast," Nicoleta Trifan from Simple bakery about the recipe offered and made by her on Baking Show.
Brioche bread
This recipe uses sweet sourdough. The resulting dough can be used to make not only this sweet bread, but also burger buns.
Ingredients:
Yeast from bread, previously fed.
When it is at maximum volume, we feed it with milk according to the following recipe:
• 250 g of yeast;
• 250 g flour;
• 125 ml milk.
Ideally, we would use a mixer, and the dough will be ready when it is completely removed from the bowl. We make a tight ball, which we leave to rise for 8 hours at room temperature. It will be ready when it has tripled in volume.
The dough itself
• 2000 g flour;
• 900 ml of milk;
• 200 g sugar;
• 2 eggs;
• 500 g butter or olive oil;
• 600 g Active yeast fed with milk;
• 50 g salt.
Knead with the planetary mixer for about 3-4 minutes until all the flour is well incorporated into the dough. We will notice that, depending on the type of flour used, the dough will need more or less liquid. If we notice that mixing becomes difficult, we add a small amount of milk to the mixer bowl. When the flour has been completely incorporated, leave the dough obtained to ferment for about 30 minutes.
After the fermentolysis process, we put the dough back to kneading and add the butter, salt and olive oil. The dough is ready when the bowl remains completely clean.
Leave to rise in bulk at room temperature for at least 4 hours, with 3 packages 30 minutes apart.
After rising, during which our dough has doubled in volume, we will move on to portioning. For this we need a small amount of flour on the work surface. Our sweet breads are shaped and pressed into a normal loaf shape, then placed to rise in baking trays previously greased with a little oil and lined with flour. The burger buns will be shaped round and placed to rise in the tray, at a short distance from each other.
The final proofing is about 12 hours or overnight at room temperature. After proofing, before baking, brush the products with a mixture of egg yolk and milk. Bake at 180⁰ C for 35 minutes, checking from time to time.
