POLISH EGG BREAD

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in 1 cup lukewarm water in a bowl; set aside.
• Bring milk to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; add remaining 1 cup lukewarm water, butter, and 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon salt; stir until butter melts. Pour in sugar and stir until dissolved.
• When milk mixture has cooled to lukewarm, stir in dissolved yeast.
• Beat eggs in a separate bowl until combined. Whisk milk mixture into eggs. Gradually mix in flour.
• Transfer dough to a floured work surface; use a serrated knife to divide dough in half. Shape each half into a ball and place dough into 2 large greased bowls. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease 3 baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
• Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and divide into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into balls. (Dough will be very sticky and soft at this point.) Keep covered with greased plastic wrap.
• Working with one portion at a time, divide one dough ball into 3 pieces. Shape each piece into 3 ropes, braid together, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough balls. You should be able to fit 2 loaves per baking sheet.
• Bake loaves in the preheated oven until hollow-sounding when tapped on top, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool before slicing.
