I had fun making this Chinois “Chinese Brioche”. Although it takes about two and a half hours from start to finish, it's worth the wait because it tastes delicious!
Ingredients
- 3 ¼ cups flour (375 g) shopping list
- 15 g of granulated yeast (active dry yeast) - I used one of over 21 g shopping list
- butter ¼ cup (57g) shopping list
- ½ cup sugar (100 g) - original recipe calls for only 50 g shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
- ½ cup lemon yogurt (125 ml) shopping list
- 1 tablespoon (45 g) of honey dissolved in 3 tablespoons milk (50 ml) shopping list
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla (10 ml) shopping list
- 1 ½ cup pastry cream shopping list
How to make it
- 1. Prepare the pastry cream and cool or use store bought one.
- 2. Mix all ingredients. Following the appropriate instructions for the yeast you will be using.
- 3. Knead well until a smooth and elastic dough is formed. Let stand, covered with plastic wrap for 45 minutes.
- 4. When the dough has doubled in size, roll out with the help of a roller forming a rectangle. Then spread the pastry cream and roll up lengthwise like a roll . Cut into slices about ½ inch thick, and place in greased tray. Allow to rise covered for an hour.
- 5. Brush with 1 beaten egg and place in a preheated oven at 400ºF (200 ºC) for 40 minutes. If the top begins to brown, cover with foil. Prick with a knife to check if it is well done.
- 6. When done brush with 2 tablespoons of peach or apricot jam diluted with 2 tablespoons of water in the microwave for 20 secs. Brush the chinois and serve.
