Braid the loaves starting at the center.
Not exact matches
This time, although I managed to make a bunch of mistakes (added an extra egg;
started braiding as one
loaf, not two; put sesame seeds on too early), it seems like it still worked perfectly.
We had a bread machine and I scoffed at it and would make my beautiful
braided loafs... I haven't made one in at least 10 years though, and this makes me think I should
start again!
Made it for the first time yesterday — fantastic recipe and results — the
braiding was a little tricky; next time I will roll the strands skinnier and longer and
braid tighter at the
start — my
loaf had a bit of a wedge shape, wider at the
start and narrower at the end.
