Question

Help answer this question below.

Where can I get brioche? Any bakery, because I live in a not-so-cultured area and I'm not sure my local bakeries/grocery stores would carry it, unless it's common.

    Most bakeries, even in remote areas will carry brioche. You could even ask them if they make it special as it is often eaten around Easter time.

    If you want to make this sometimes tricky bread, here is a very simple brioche recipe.

    8 3/4 oz (1 2/3 cups) all-purpose flour
    2 3/4 oz butter, at room temperature
    2 eggs, at room temperature
    1 dose dry baker’s yeast (1 Tbsp)
    2 Tbsp fine sugar
    1/3 cup warm milk
    1 pinch salt
    1 egg yolk for glaze

    In a bowl, mix the flour with the yeast, make a hole in the middle.

    Add the warm milk mixing with the tip of your fingers (if using a stand mixer, pour the milk slowly and steadily while mixing, with the hook attachment.)

    Add the sugar and a pinch of salt, then add the soft butter, piece after piece, waiting each time that each piece is absorbed.

    Then one by one, add the eggs, mixing well between each. Work the dough until it is elastic and detaches from your fingers more easily (or from the bowl of the stand mixer).

    Cover and let rest in a warm place, away from drafts, for two hours, until it doubles in size.

    Work the dough again for 10 min and divide it in four balls. Place them in a greased rectangular mold and cover. Let rise for an hour again.

    Preheat the oven at 400°F.

    Brush the brioche with the egg yolk mixed with a dash of sugar. With a pair of scissors, make small cuts at the top of each ball.

    Place in the oven to bake for 10 min at 400°, then reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for about 20 to 30 min.

    Remove, unmold and let cool on a rack.
