CHRISTMAS BREAD
Meet the Cook: Some of my friends prefer this slightly sweet bread to fruitcake. My family enjoys it at Christmastime. I'll make it for potlucks, too, and I've found that friends like it for brunch and breakfast. Recently, my husband and I marked our golden anniversary. We're the parents of two and grandparents of two. -Betty Jean McLaughlin, La Vista, Nebraska

UKRAINIAN CHRISTMAS BREAD KOLACH
Makes 1 beautiful twisted and stacked golden bread, about 9 inches across and 5 to 6 inches tall. Traditional feast on Christmas Eve January 6 consists of twelve courses, all meatless, a form of fasting while celebrating. Starts of first with ritual gruel, a cross between soup and gruel called kutia, made of simmered wheat berries flavored with honey and black poppy seeds, meatless borshch, varenyky filled with potato or cheese and served with mushroom sauce, and fish served several ways. On the table along with wineglasses and candles, is a Christmas bread called kolach, elaborately twisted and braided. It's traditionally presented as three breads stacked one on top of the other and topped by a candle. The bread is moist and rich with butter and eggs and has a slightly denser-than-brioche texture. This recipes makes one very beautiful bread. To make the traditional three breads, see the NOTE below. This bread keeps well.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water, then add 1 teaspoon of the sugar and stir well. Set aside. Note: Make sure your yeast is fresh. If it does not break the surface with little bubbles the yeast is old, start over with fresh yeast.
- In a large bowl, dissolve the remaining sugar in the warm milk. Stir in the melted butter, salt, and eggs, then add 2 cups of the flour and stir until smooth. Add the yeast mixture and stir it well, always stirring in the same direction. Add 4 to 5 cups more flour, 1 cup at a time, stirring and turning to incorporate it; when the dough becomes too difficult to mix, turn it out onto a well floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or more, adding flour if necessary, until firm (not soft), smooth, and elastic.
- Place the dough in a large clean bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in a fairly warm place (about 70 F.) until doubled in volume, about 3 hours.
- Pull the dough away from the sides of the bowl and deflate it, then cover and let rise again until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Butter or grease a 9-inch round cake pan or cast iron frying pan (or a 9- or 10-inch flan ring set on a baking sheet).
- Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Cut into 6 equal pieces (first cut the dough in half, then cut each piece into 3).
- Set 4 pieces aside, lightly covered.
- Roll the remaining 2 pieces out under your palms into ropes about 33 to 36 inches long. Lay 1 piece diagonally across the other at the center of each, then, working from that center point, twine the ropes around each other, toward each end, to make a long coiled rope. Make a circle of the rope, pressing the ends together, and place it in the buttered pan or ring.
- Roll out the remaining 4 pieces of dough into 24-inch lengths and, following the instructions above, use them to make 2 coiled ropes. Then use the same technique to twist the 2 coils around each other to make a DOUBLE coil. Lay the coil inside the dough in the pan to form a circle, and pinch the ends together, trimming them at an angle as necessary to make a neat joint. There will be a small circular gap in the center of the bread. Cover and let rise until almost doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a rack in the lower third of the oven. If you have a baking stone or unglazed quarry tiles, place them on the rack. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Brush the top of the risen dough generously with egg wash. Transfer to the stone, tiles, or a baking sheet and bake for about 1 hour. The bread should have a rich golden crusts and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. (The bread starts to turn golden very early in the baking because of the egg wash. This does not mean the bread has baked, but it may tempt you to take it out too early. Be sure to use the "hollow tap" test to make sure it has baked through.) Let the bread stand for at least 1 hour on a wire rack to firm up before slicing.
- NOTE: To make the traditional three breads, triple the recipe as follows: Increase the yeast to 4 teaspoons and the milk to 5 cups; triple the quantities of sugar, butter, eggs, and flour. Divide the risen dough into three, then shape each loaf separately. You will probably have to bake them in two batches unless your oven is very large, since only two breads will fit on a regular rack. The breads must be completely cool and firm before being stacked-make them a day ahead if possible.
- TO TEST IF BREAD HAS RISEN ENOUGH, use the "poke test" Press a moistened finger briefly into the dough. If the dent stays dented it's ready. This tests especially useful when you're trying to determine if shaped breads or rolls are ready to be put in the oven.
- TO TEST IF A LOAF HAS BAKED ENOUGH, tap on the bottom of the loaf to see if it sounds hollow, and then use the "pinch test"" Pinch the loaf at the corners or at the bottom edge. It should feel firm, not soft. If it stills feels soft, place it back in the oven for another five or ten minutes. When baking pan loaves, take them out of the pans to test them. If you need to bake them a little longer and you have a baking stone or unglazed quarry tiles in your oven, bake them straight on the hot surface, rather than putting them back in the pans.
CHILEAN CHRISTMAS BREAD
Steps:
- Make sponge:
- In 2-cup glass measuring cup, stir together 1/2 cup warm water (105°F to 115°F) and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over and stir, then let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand at room temperature until sponge rises to top of measuring cup, 20 to 30 minutes. Uncover and stir mixture down.
- Prepare dough and bake bread:
- In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add salt and zest and beat until combined. Add 3 eggs, 1 at time, beating well after each addition. Add sponge and beat until combined. Add 2 cups flour and mix at low speed until combined. Add remaining 1 cup flour, remaining 1 egg, brandy, and vanilla and mix at low speed until smooth.
- Increase speed to medium and beat dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Add cherries, dark and golden raisins, and candied fruit, and mix at low speed until incorporated.
- Lightly butter clean, large bowl. Turn dough out onto work surface and form into ball. Transfer dough to bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover bowl snugly with plastic wrap and let rise in warm, draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
- Line 8-inch diameter (at top) flowerpot with foil and lightly grease foil. (Alternatively, lightly grease 9-inch diameter springform pan with 3-inch-high sides.) Turn dough out onto work surface and knead 1 minute, then transfer to pot or pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm, draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
- Arrange rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Remove plastic wrap from dough in pan and transfer pan to oven. Bake 20 minutes, then lay sheet of foil loosely on top of loaf. Continue baking until bread is nicely puffed and golden-brown, about 25 to 30 minutes more. Cool in pan on rack 10 minutes, then unmold and cool completely before slicing and eating.

- Panettone. Dreaming of flying to Italy? If the budget still doesn’t permit, how about baking panettone instead? This traditional Italian sweet bread (which is more like a cake) will give your Christmas an Italian feel.
- Rosca De Reyes. Rosca de reyes is a traditional Spanish bread served during Epiphany. This Christian holiday is celebrated on January 6th, the 12th day of Christmas.
- Stollen. Next up, how about we head to Germany? There are many variations of the classic fruitcake, but the German version is one of the best. Stollen is a moist and flaky yeasted bread studded with tons of dried fruits, nuts, and candied citrus peel.
- Scones. To be clear: these scones are American, not English. English scones, which are called biscuits here, are round, light, and airy. They have a buttery and crumbly exterior and a moist and tender interior.
- Star Bread. Its name alone tells you how appropriate it is for Christmas. The star bread is as festive as can be. This bread has a super intricate design, so I understand if you’re reluctant to make it.
- Monkey Bread Muffins. These muffins are soft, sticky, and pillowy pull-apart bread covered with cinnamon sugar. They taste as if you worked hard on them, but the truth is, you’ll hardly work on them at all.
- Wreath Bread. This wreath bread will be the star of your Christmas spread. First of all, it’s gorgeous. Again, by the looks of it, you’d think it requires some pro-baking skills.
- Cornbread. The number of times I’ve had cornbread that’s just way too crumbly is too darn high. Oh, how I hate biting into cornbread that disintegrates like wet sand!
- Christmas Tree Spinach Dip Breadsticks. If holiday-worthy is what you’re looking for, you have just found it. I mean, how ridiculously festive is this Christmas tree breadstick?!
- Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread. If you can’t decide between chocolate muffins and pumpkin bread, I have just found you the solution. This chocolate chip pumpkin bread is calling out your name!
