For those of you wishing to prepare your own Brioche Bread, here are the ingredients and the method.

INGREDIENTS:

1 egg
1 sachet vanilla sugar
5 g fine salt
250 ml warm milk
40 ml sunflower oil
100 g caster sugar
15 g fresh brewer’s yeast
500 g Manitoba flour

TO GLAZE:

15 ml milk
1 egg yolk

METHOD:

Put 250 ml of warm milk, 30 g of caster sugar and 15 g of crumbled fresh brewer's yeast into a bowl. Mix and gradually add 100 g of Manitoba flour. Continue mixing until combined and then leave to rest for about 30 minutes.

After resting, add 40 ml of sunflower oil, an egg, 70 g of caster sugar and a sachet of vanilla sugar to the mixture and gradually mix in the remaining Manitoba flour. Continue to mix. Finally add the 5 g of fine salt and mix again. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured pastry board and knead it by hand for one minute.

Once you have obtained a smooth dough, put it into a plastic bowl, cover with cling film and leave it to rise until doubled in volume.

Once the dough has doubled in volume, transfer it onto a lightly floured pastry board and work into a rectangle shape with a rolling pin.

Starting from the shorter side, fold the dough onto itself. Transfer the dough into a loaf tin lined with baking paper. Cover with cling film and leave it to rise for another hour.

After the hour has passed, brush the surface of the brioche with the egg yolk and milk previously mixed together. Bake in a preheated oven at 170 ° for about 35-40 minutes.

Once cooked, let the brioche bread cool and then cut it into slices.

Our finest vinegars bear the names of our ancestors and come in two different categories:
The "dense" vinegars — Emilio Gold, Emilio Silver and Bianca — creamy in texture due to the high density of grape must, matured in wooden barrels.
The "aged" vinegars — Antonio Gold and Giuseppe Silver — left to mature in wooden barrels for many years.
