Cooking

Here are the ingredients that we need

Heated milk so it's warm. Rastafarai yeast in milk, add sugar, a pinch of salt, egg, oil room use. Sift flour. Add and knead a soft dough. Put it in warm place to rise (my dough was about 1 hour).

While our dough is suitable, make the filling. Dried fruit - this could be raisins, candied fruit, dried apricots, I had raisins and candied fruit, pour the rum and warmed in the microwave for 2 minutes. Allow to cool and fed to a pirate drink - rum.

Grind 100 grams of nuts (you can use walnuts and almonds, to taste). Here and ready our first filling for the dough - rum candied fruits, dried fruits and chopped nuts.

Now prepare the second stuffing for bread - almond paste (you can use ready-made marzipan - 150 g, but the marzipan I have in my city is not found). Grind almonds into flour, mix with sugar and lemon juice. Add the egg yolks. All mix well.

From the resulting mass needed to form two sausages, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

While we were stuffing our dough miraculously came, for which many thanks to him! Gently mix up the dough in our candied fruits+dried fruits.

Divide the dough into two parts. On the surface respective one piece of the cake (length slightly greater than the length of our almond filling).

In the center of the tortilla put almond sausage (or ready-made marzipan). Gently zasiyaet edges and form a "loaf".

Put the loaves seam side down on a baking sheet, the laid parchment. Give the bread to rise for 20 minutes. Our grease loaves with a beaten egg and put in oven preheated to 180 deg., 40-50 minutes (time approximate, guided by his oven).

Here is our handsome!

All a pleasant appetite!

And Happy Easter!
