How far our knowledge can reach in the ever expanding universe or does it matter? Make a raisin bread to find the answer of all times.

Ingredients
(for 2 rolls)
- 5 cup / 600g Flour
- 2 Eggs
- 8 tablespoon / 120g Butter
- 1 cup / 240ml Milk
- ⅓ oz / 10g Fresh yeast
- 10 oz / 300g Dried fruit
- 1 Egg or better just egg yolk for eggwash

How to make Raisin bread
- In a large bowl add the flour, eggs, butter, yeast, milk and the raisins.
- Knead them together.
- With oiled or floured hands gather the dough into a ball then gently apply a thin coat of oil on it that will prevent it from drying out.
- Cover it then put it to a 68°F – 81°F / 20°C – 27°C place to rise for 60 – 120 minutes. Most likely it won’t double due to the weight of the raisins but it should be raised and softer than at the beginning.
- This recipe is for two loaf so cut the dough into two.
- Gently form the dough into a log and put it into a bread pan.
- Cover the dough again and put it back to the 68°F – 81°F / 20°C – 27°C place to rise for 30 – 60 minutes.
- Whisk egg yolk with a bit of water or vanilla extract and brush it on top of the dough.
- Put the dough onto the bottom rack of a preheated 365°F / 180°C oven and bake it until its top is getting a lovely golden brown color, for about 30 – 40 minutes.
Enjoy!
