Title: St Basil's Bread
Categories: Breads
Yield: 1 Loaf
4 1/2 c Flour
1 pk Dry yeast
1 ts Grated lemon peel
1/2 ts Anise seed; crushed
1 c Milk
1/4 c Butter
1/4 c Sugar
3/4 ts Salt
2 lg Eggs
1 Beaten egg yolk
Sesame seeds
In large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, yeast, lemon peel,
and anise seed. Heat together milk, butter, sugar, and
salt to 120°F/49°C, stirring constantly. Add to dry
mixture; add 2 eggs and beat at low speed of mixer for 1
minute, then at high speed for 3 minutes. By hand, stir in
enough flour to make a stiff dough. Turn out onto floured
surface and knead until smooth. Shape into a ball, place
in lightly greased bowl, then turn over once to grease
top.
Cover; let rise until double (1 to 1 1/4 hours). Punch
down and divide into sixths. Cover; let rest for 10
minutes so it is easier to roll out. Shape a sixth of
dough into flat 8" round. Place in greased 8" round cake
pan. Repeat with second sixth. Divide third portion into 2
parts. Shape each into 18" long strands, then twist both
together into a rope and place in a 7" circle on top of
pan. Repeat with remaining dough so you have 2 breads.
Combine egg yolk with it and brush on loaves once they
have risen until double (30-45 minutes). Sprinkle with
sesame seeds. Bake at 375°F/190°C for 20-25 minutes until
nicely browned. Remove from pans. Cool on rack.
