INGREDIENTS

125ml milk (1/2 cup)

50g butter (1/4 cup)

10g saffron

250g all-purpose flour (2 cups)

50g sugar (1/4 cup)

7g dry yeast

1 egg yolk

Raisins

1 egg yolk + 10ml milk for brushing

METHOD

1. Heat the milk, butter, and saffron in a saucepan just until the butter melts. Set aside.

2. Add the flour, sugar, and crumbled yeast to the bowl of a stand mixer and mix briefly.

3. Add the egg yolk and mix again.

4. Gradually add the butter, milk, and saffron mixture, which should be lukewarm by now, while the mixer is running.

5. Let the dough mix well until it becomes smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

6. Once smooth, remove it from the hook and place it on a work surface. Fold it a few times and let it rise in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for 2 hours, or until it doubles in size.

7. After resting, gently deflate the dough and cut it into pieces of about 60g each. Shape them into small logs. Roll each end towards the center in opposite directions to form an 8 shape.

8. Place each brioche on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place a raisin on each curl, cover with a cloth, and let rise for 1 hour.

9. After resting, brush with the egg yolk and milk mixture. Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes.
