Directions
Brioche,From Baking with Julia, my favorite baking book. DO NOT make substitutions, or shortcuts in this recipe. I can not and will not guarantee the results if you do. But if you elect to take on this, the Queen of Bread, you will be rewarded with an incredible bread that is great on it’s own, makes great sticky buns, and makes really fabulous french toast and bread pudding.,What size loaf pans are you using? I’m in Canada and have several different sized loaf pans.,The sponge section listed 2 cups of flour, but the Directions said to add 1 cup, then 1/2 cup of flour. My dough failed because it was wayyy too soft and sticky. What a waste of ingredients and time! Please proof your recipe before posting!
