Cooking

In warm milk mix dry yeast "SAF-Time" for muffins, sugar and 1 tablespoon flour. Cover and leave in a warm place for 30 minutes or until formation of the foam cap.

While suitable dough, let's prepare the other components. Dried strawberries cut into small pieces. The butter will melt and cool to warm. With half of a lemon remove the zest, Melo it will cut and squeeze the juice.

Shall pound the yolks with honey. Mix the yeast mixture, zest and juice of lemon, butter and yolk-honey mixture, add salt. Pour the mixture into the sifted flour.

Make soft, not sticky dough. At the end of the batch will smeshaem sliced strawberries, achieving a uniform distribution of the berries in the dough. I started making dough with less flour-270 grams, adding a little flour in the kneading process. In the end, I used 320 grams of flour. The finished dough cover and leave in a warm place to rise for 2 hours, making one obmenka during this time.

Given that a lot of baking, it is possible that the time for lifting need more. So the dough was in an hour. It has increased in volume quite a bit. I put for comparison, the sachet of yeast.

The finished dough divide into three equal parts and skatiem of them long plaits.

Braid a braid (not to tight!), put the braid on a baking sheet, covered with baking paper. Make indentations for eggs. Raw eggs wrap in foil and put in the intended recesses. We should put design and leave in a warm place to rise for another 30-40 minutes. The oven turn on the heating a t 180 degrees.

Rasstoyatsya braid lubricated with milk (or egg yolk) and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in preheated oven 45-50 minutes or until Browning. In baking, eggs are not damaged-not cracked, does not leak :) But fully prepared!!!

Basket let cool on wire rack, covered with a cloth. Not painted then remove the eggs and replace the Easter painted eggs.

I pletenochka baked before Easter week, so I apologize that the photo the eggs are decorated, but not painted!
