BREADS
Makes two 1-pound loaves (32 servings)
Approximate preparation time: 10 to 15 minutes, plus 3
hours for rising and resting, 30 minutes for baking, and 1 hour or
longer for cooling
Dissolve the yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar in warm water in a
large, liquid measuring cup. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Add beaten eggs; stir gently to combine.
Insert the dough blade into the large work bowl of the Cuisinart
®
Food Processor. Add the fl our, remaining sugar, salt and butter
and process on the Dough speed until combined, about 10 to 15
seconds. With the machine running on Dough speed, add liquid
through the feed tube as fast as the fl our absorbs it. Once the
dough cleans the sides of the work bowl and forms a ball,
process for 45 seconds to knead dough. Dough should be
smooth and elastic.
Place dough in a large greased glass bowl, turning dough to
grease the entire surface, cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise until the dough has doubled in size,
about 2 hours. For a lighter loaf, punch dough down and repeat the rise. In warmer weather, allow
dough to rise overnight in refrigerator.
Once risen, punch dough down and divide into two equal parts. Divide each half into three equal
parts. Roll each piece into a long rope. Braid the strands loosely into two separate loaves. Place on
two separate baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap until doubled in size,
about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Brush loaves with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake until golden brown, about 25 to 30
minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
TIP: To make one 1-pound loaf, halve all ingredients and follow the same instructions.
