Provided by Olha7397

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 45m

Yield 3-4 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 -9 cups all-purpose flour
2 (5/8 ounce) fresh yeast cakes
24 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces (3/4 lb)
1 1/2 cups dried currants, soaked in hot water for 15 minutes and drained
1 1/2 cups seedless white raisins, soaked in hot water for 15 minutes and drained
3/4 cup dark raisin, soaked in warm water for 15 minutes and drained
1/2 cup chopped mixed candied fruit peel
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg or 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup lukewarm milk
2 eggs, well beaten
2 teaspoons dark molasses, mixed with
1 1/2 cups tepid water

Steps:

  • Put 8 cups of the flour in a mixing bowl and let it stand in a warm place for a short while. Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles meal, add the currants, raisins candied fruit peel, nutmeg or allspice, salt and all of the brown sugar but 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar. Mix thoroughly.
  • In a smaller bowl cream the fresh yeast with the 1 teaspoons of brown sugar and blend the yeast mixture with the milk.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, pour the yeast mixture into it and sprinkle a little additional flour over the yeast mixture. Cover the dough and let it stand in a warm place for a few minutes, until it is just beginning to rise. Pour the beaten eggs into the bowl and proceed to knead gradually adding the 1 1/2 cups tepid water mixed with the molasses. This should be a soft dough. Knead about 10 minutes.
  • Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, or until it has doubled in bulk. Then turn the dough out onto a well floured board, divide it in half and put it into two well buttered 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 inch loaf pans. Let the loaves rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until they have nearly risen to the rims of the pans.
  • Bake the loaves in a preheated 350°F oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, so that the tops are browned and loaves sound hollow when rapped.

  • Put the raisins, sultanas and currants in a bowl along with the candied lemon and orange peel. Pour the hot tea over the fruit, stir, cover and let sit overnight.Depending on how dry or moist your raisins/currants were to begin with they will have absorbed nearly all of the liquid. If there is some liquid remaining reserve about 2 or 3 tablespoons of it to brush on top of the finished bread.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, place the flour, baking powder, salt and spices and stir to combined. Add the fruits and their juices (except for the juice you reserved) along with all remaining ingredients. Use the paddle attachment to mix the ingredients into a batter that resembles a soft cookie dough. (If the batter seems too dry after you've mixed it add either a little melted butter or a little bit of egg yolk.)
  • Scoop the batter into a greased loaf pan and use the back of a spoon or your fingers to smooth the top. Bake for 70-85 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.Spoon or brush the reserved dried fruits liquid over the top of the hot bread and let it cool for a few minutes before removing it from the loaf pan to cool completely on a wire rack.
