Grandma’s recipe

Sift 500g of flour into a bowl and make a well. Combine the yeast, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the warm milk and pour into the well. Then add a little flour to make a pre-dough. Let stand for 20 minutes. Then warm the butter in the milk and add it to the pre-dough along with the sugar. Knead everything well, adding just enough flour until the dough pulls away from the bowl. Let it rise for 40 minutes! Then braid the dough and brush it with egg yolk. Bake at 180°C for about 25 minutes! It also tastes great with raisins!
