We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: GLAZE ONE: Mix egg and water (or choose milk or cream) and mix together. Apply this ten minutes before baking time is finished

  • Step 2: GLAZE TWO: Mix egg yolk and cream (or choose milk or water) This glaze gives bread a rich brown look if applied either before baking or ten minutes before baking is done

  • Step 3: GLAZE THREE: Beat egg white with the cold water - gives a shiny look. Apply five minutes before baking is finished

  • Step 4: GLAZE FOUR - SWEET GLAZE: Combine the sifted icing sugar with milk, adding vanilla to taste. Drizzle over loaves after they have been baked - apply twice, half as soon as taken from oven and then again when bread has cooled a bit
