Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 3 h

Step 1:
Prepare the specified ingredients for the preparation of a braid with poppy seeds from yeast dough. The products must be taken out of the refrigerator in advance so that they are all at room temperature.
Step 2:
Heat the milk to 36-38 degrees. In warm milk, add a tablespoon of sugar (of the total volume) and yeast. Stir until the yeast and sugar are completely dissolved. Leave in the heat for 20 minutes until a foam cap forms.
Step 3:
Add the remaining sugar to the softened butter and mix. Add the egg and mix. Then add the activated yeast. Mix it up. Add salt and gradually add flour. First add 250 grams - this may be enough to knead a smooth and homogeneous dough. The amount of flour will depend on the quality of the flour itself and the size of the egg. If the dough seems too sticky, you can add another 10-30 grams of flour and knead the dough again.
Step 4:
Grease the bowl with vegetable oil, transfer the dough. Cover the bowl with cling film and put it away for 40-60 minutes in a warm place to rise.
Step 5:
Prepare the filling: pour poppy seeds, sugar and milk into a saucepan. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. At the end, add the butter and stir again.
Step 6:
Chop the poppy with an immersion blender and cool to room temperature.
Step 7:
Put the dough that has come up on the surface dusted with flour and form a rectangle 40x30 cm with your hands. Spread the filling evenly.
Step 8:
Roll up the layer with poppy seed filling. Carefully fasten the seam and the ends of the roll. Turn the roll seam down. And then cut the roll in half lengthwise, not reaching the very end.
Step 9:
Weave both parts together and secure them so that they do not unfold. Place the wicker on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Cover and leave to increase in volume for 20-30 minutes. Next, lubricate the braid with a mixture of yolk and milk using a cooking brush.
Step 10:
Bake yeast plait with poppy seeds for 30 - 40 minutes in a preheated 180 gr. oven.
