BRIOCHE
Makes about 18
individual brioches
1/2 cup warm water 2 tablespoons yeast 2
teaspoons sugar 1 cup flour 6 eggs 2 cups flour 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt 3 sticks (12 ounces) soft butter 1 egg, beaten
to glaze brioches
3 cups flour Dissolve the yeast in the water with the
sugar. Add the flour and whisk to make a soft dough. Set the dough in a warm
place until it doubles in volume. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine
yeast mixture, eggs, flour, sugar, and salt. Use a dough hook, and mix
well. Add butter and remaining flour and mix for 10 minutes or until dough is
elastic. Place in a large greased mixing bowl. Let rise at room temperature
for about 2 hours or until dough triples in volume. Punch down. Cover
with plastic and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours or overnight. Knead the dough to
remove any air. Divide the dough into brioche molds (large and small),
filling the molds half way. Cover molds with a towel. Allow the dough to
double in volume at room temperature. Brush a well-beaten egg over the top of
the dough in the molds. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 15 to
25 minutes, depending on the sizes of the molds, or until medium browned.
