- Pour the yeast mixture over the egg mixture and mix everything together well with a wooden spoon until it forms a dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until soft and smooth. If the dough is still too sticky, you can add 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of cake flour at a time while kneading the dough.
- Place the dough in a mixing bowl greased with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in volume.
- Divide the dough into six equal portions and roll each portion into a sausage 3 cm thick and 30 cm long.
- Place three dough sausages next to each other and attach the tops by firmly pinching them together. Do the same with the remaining dough sausages.
- Braid the dough sausages like a normal braid and pinch the bottom ends firmly together.
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C and line two baking trays with baking paper.
- Place the braided loaves on the prepared baking sheets and sprinkle with a little flour. Place a clean kitchen towel over each loaf and let it rise in a warm place for at least 1 hour.
- Mix the egg white and water and whisk it together lightly. Paint the loaves with the egg glaze and bake for 30-35 minutes. Rotate the baking sheets 180° after 15 minutes of baking time.
- Remove the loaves from the oven and let them cool on wire racks.
