Time 2h

Yield 6 rolls, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

8 ounces poppy seeds
1/2 cup milk
7 tablespoons butter
7 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon rum
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspooon fresh lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (plus more for dusting)
2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
5 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup lukewarm milk
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon poppy seed

Steps:

  • To Make the Filling: Grind the poppy seeds. You may use a mill or grinder, or grind it in several batches in a coffee grinder. Grind them for 1 - 2 minutes or until they are cracked and become darker and oily looking.
  • Mix together the milk, butter, sugar, vanilla, salt, rum, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cinnamon in a saucepan, and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring, for about 10 minutes, then remove from heat and cool.
  • To Make the Dough: *This recipe calls for instant yeast. If you are using regular dry yeast, mix it with part of the lukewarm milk and let it sit for 10 minutes to rehydrate. Add with the milk to the dry ingredients and proceed as usual. If you wish to use fresh yeast, use a cake (20 - 30 grams) and dissolve in the milk prior to mixing with the flour.
  • Mix the flour, instant yeast*, sugar and salt in a bowl. Melt butter and milk together, cool to lukewarm.
  • Add the milk, butter and egg to the flour and work (mix, then knead) it into a smooth dough. Knead for about 5 minutes, then form it into a ball, dust it with flour and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • To Form Braided Rolls: Divide dough in half, then cut each into six equal pieces each.
  • Roll out each piece to about 2 by 6 inches on a lightly floured surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of poppy seed filling down the center of each piece, lengthwise. Fold the dough lengthwise around the filling and pinch closed to form a rope. Roll this rope a little longer by rocking it back and forth with your hands.
  • Twist two filled ropes together and then form them into a ring, pinching the ends closed so that the ring does not untwist in the oven.
  • Repeat to make six rolls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Mix the egg yolk and water together, and brush it over the rolls. Sprinkle poppy seeds on top.
  • Bake the rolls as soon as you finish making all of them (no further rise) for 25 to 30 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350° after 5 - 10 minutes baking time, and turn the baking sheet about half-way through for even baking.

Time P1DT2h25m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup warm water (105 F to 115 F)
2 (1/4 ounce) envelopes dry yeast
1/4 teaspoon sugar, plus
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 large egg
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, cooled
5 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into thin slices
1 egg, beaten with
1 tablespoon cold water (glaze)
poppy seed

Steps:

  • Place warm water in large bowl. Sprinkle yeast and 1/4 teaspoon sugar over and stir to blend. Let stand until yeast dissolves and mixture is slightly foamy, about 8 minutes.
  • Whisk milk, 1 egg, salt and remaining 1/3 cup sugar into yeast mixture. Add melted butter and whisk until smooth. Add 1 cup flour and mix until smooth. Combine 4 cups flour and 1 cup chilled butter in processor. Using on/off turns, process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add to yeast mixture and stir until dry ingredients are moistened. Knead in bowl until smooth dough forms, adding more flour if dough is sticky, about 5 minutes.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate dough overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.).
  • Butter twenty-four 1/3-cup nonstick muffin cups. Turn dough out onto floured surface; knead briefly until smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Place 1 dough portion on work surface; cover and chill remaining dough. Roll out 1 dough portion on floured surface to 13x11-inch rectangle (about 1/8 inch thick). Cut rectangle lengthwise into 6 strips, each scant 2 inches wide. Stack strips atop one another, forming 6 layers and pressing slightly to adhere. Cut strips crosswise into 6 equal stacks, each about 2 inches long. Place 1 dough stack, 1 cut side down, into each muffin cup (dough will fan out slightly and fill muffin cups as dough rises). Repeat with remaining chilled dough pieces.
  • Cover rolls with kitchen towel. Let rise in warm draft-free area until rolls are puffed and doubled in volume, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in top third of oven; preheat to 350°F Brush rolls gently with egg glaze. Sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake until rolls are golden brown, switching top and bottom baking sheets halfway through baking, about 25 minutes. Transfer pans to rack and cool rolls 5 minutes. Remove rolls from pans and cool on racks. Serve warm or at room temperature. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Wrap in aluminum foil and freeze. If desired, rewarm thawed wrapped rolls in 350°F oven about 10 minutes.).

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly. Before adding the yeast to the dough, make sure to activate it by adding it to lukewarm water with a pinch of sugar and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until it becomes foamy.
  • Knead the dough well. Kneading the dough for at least 10 minutes will help develop the gluten and make the dough smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Roll out the dough evenly. When rolling out the dough, make sure to do it evenly so that the rolls are all the same size.
  • Brush the rolls with egg wash before baking. This will give the rolls a golden brown color and a shiny glaze.
  • Bake the rolls until they are golden brown. The baking time will vary depending on the size of the rolls, but they are generally done after about 15-20 minutes.
