Classic brioche from Rose's Heavenly Cakes by Rose Levy Beranbaum

  • instant yeast
    Instant yeast appears similar to active dry yeast, but has smaller granules with substantially higher percentages of live cells per comparable unit volumes. It is more perishable than active dry yeast, but also does not require rehydration, and can usually be added directly to all but the driest doughs. Instant yeast generally has a small amount of ascorbic acid added as a preservative. (Wikipedia) Buy Now

Notes about this recipe

    The recipe yields exactly the amount of dough needed for a classic brioche mold. Very little hands-on time, but it takes 2 days until the final result can be tasted. Unfortunately with all the rising time needed this is not a breakfast staple, but it was excellent with some butter and jam and a cup of tea on a rainy afternoon. Will make again!
