Yeast water Pulla for a rainy weekend

I always enjoy this enriched sweet bread with a cup of good strong coffee -- anytime! I only changed up one thing from my last  back and that was shoe horning it into my oval brotform to proof. Proofing in a hard sided form resulted in more vertical rise vs proofing a braided loaf on a linen couche. I liked the result:

After proofing I egg wshed, sprinkled sugar and ground almond along with a few almond slices. Time for another slice!

Happy baking folks! Ski

fridge ans now is the time to feed it in season cherries to give it that beautiful color.  Your Pulla always reminds me of how often I forget about it.::(  This is an exceptionally mice looking one - boldly baked and beautifully proud and tall.  Got some BB Ribs in the smoker with some sausages to follow - for Father's Day.

I still haven't smoked a moose but after seeing an Alaskan smoke shed made just for Moose..... I'm tempted to come up north and see if i can bag and smoke one!

Happy baking Ski

I appreciate your kind comments. Well dab, a moose is a pretty large animal with the bulls running 900-1,100 pounds. That is a LOT of smoked meat.
