So I ran into a problem right off, mu dough looked so dry. So I added more warm milk till It was sticky and stretchy. Then it rose. It was so sticky, so bench flour, got it to brsid ok. Baking, my bottom was black, so Im going to drop my temperature to 325 and see what happens. I only baked the bread 30 min. If itvwas not for the dark bottom, the bread was very good. Dimitrias technique is very different than yours. You truley mastered this recipe. Thank you for sharing.

I have plenty of flour(50 lbs, I know- a lot! But we have a restaurant that closed because of what’s been happening.) So I’ve been baking lots of bread to share with neighbors. It’s an all purpose flour though with a higher protein content than other brands. It’s King Arthur-I love the way it behaves, lol!

After butter,sugar and eggs are mixed in a separate bowl, add flour to it.

I wanted to see how it would differ from challah. When I lived in New York, some stores sold Greek bread as challah, but it was not quite the same. It didn't have the spices, certainly. Challah has the egg, is sweetened with barley malt syrup and/or honey, but does not have milk or butter, just oil, water. 4 cups of flour, one cup of water, one package of yeast, one-to-three tablespoons of sweetening of choice (honey, malt syrup or dark corn syrup, molasses), one or two tablespoons of oil, and one teaspoon of salt, two or three eggs (or more). No spices. Raisins are sometimes added. The braid is usually five or six, if you know how. You can also turn it to one side so one braid is on top, which makes it a little loftier. Whether the egg wash is also sweetened, depends on you. I think commercial bakeries do add malt syrup to the egg wash. Sesame seeds or poppy seeds go on top. Bake at 350. Adding zest is a delicious idea that would go very well with certain holidays! Your sensory excitement comes across, if without the actual scent. I'd love to smell the spices. I always use anise instead of fennel, as fennel causes gas.

Anise or star anise a perfect substitute for Ouzo in these recipes
