Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 30 minutes

Heat the milk to lukewarm and dissolve the yeast in it. Add the sugar, flour, lemon zest, salt, and oil, and knead until the dough pulls away from the bottom of the bowl. Then knead in the raisins. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. Divide the dough into 3 portions, shape each into a 30 cm long roll, and braid each into a plait. Press the ends firmly together, place the plait on a greased baking sheet, and let rise for another 30 minutes. Bake the plait in a preheated oven (175°C/350°F) for a good 25 minutes. 10 minutes before the end of the baking time, sprinkle the plait with beaten egg yolk and sugar.
