Get tired of searching for just the right glaze when baking breads and rolls for those special occasions - keeping a list of glazes close at hand solved it for me.To give your breads a professional finish apply glaze of choice with a soft brush. Ingredients:
1 egg (whole egg) |
1 teaspoon water (may use milk or cream instead of water) |
1 egg yolk |
1 teaspoon cream (may use milk or water) |
1 egg white (beaten) |
1 tablespoon cold water |
1 cup icing sugar (sifted) |
2 tablespoons milk |
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. GLAZE ONE: Mix egg and water ( or choose milk or cream) and mix together. Apply this ten minutes before baking time is finished.
2. GLAZE TWO: Mix egg yolk and cream ( or choose milk or water) This glaze gives bread a rich brown look if applied either before baking or ten minutes before baking is done.
3. GLAZE THREE: Beat egg white with the cold water - gives a shiny look. Apply five minutes before baking is finished.
4. GLAZE FOUR - SWEET GLAZE: Combine the sifted icing sugar with milk, adding vanilla to taste. Drizzle over loaves after they have been baked - apply twice - half as soon as taken from oven and then again when bread has cooled a bit.
