Easter Brioche Buns

Easter Brioche or Tsoureki Oriental in Greece is a traditional sweet bread, which is prepared throughout the year and especially during the Easter holidays. It needs yeast and good kneading to inflate and create beautiful fibers inside that will keep it fresh and fluffy for days. Also aromatic spices and citrus zest, such as lemon and orange, flavor it wonderfully. It is often decorated with red eggs and has different shapes and sizes.
This year we made small brioche buns to accompany our coffee for days.
Try them!

Greek Brioche-Easter 2020

Our Easter Tsourekia of 2020 was a beautiful experience, although their process was time consuming. We kept great waiting times for a total of 5 inflatables and which time (and inflatables) worked positively and substantially to make them fluffy, with strings and delicious buns.
Their ingredients are the classic for Tsourekia of our Greek Easter Brioche in a more enhanced dose, since 1 kg of flour was required.
Despite the long process, the hand work was very little. The dough, a perfect dough in texture and aroma also gave a perfect final result, which justified the effort and noise of the thing… But it is these family Easter traditions that create inextricable links and tasteful memories that connect us as a family, as a Nation.

We wish you a Happy Easter, with a lot of strength, so that we can face an invisible enemy who changed our lives!

Traditional Greek Easter Bread

Round, Easter, traditional, fluffy cake light and aromatic. The only difficulty in that exercise is patience needed between different yeast rising phases. If we like doing braids straight or rounded to coil shape. With balls, as you suggest, it is easier and more relaxed and are ideal to fill them with chocolate or jam. Make your tests and you'll see, it is like to play, like children, plasticine. This is the grace of our Easter kneading.

Leftover Cake Trifle

Trifles, these beautiful desserts, served in transparent glasses, with alternating layers of different ingredients & flavors, are the most sophisticated way to utilize a leftover Cake or the rest of an Easter Brioche, which simply ran out, was not consumed and we don't want to throw away. Besides trifles we can utilize, making small chocolate truffles and a coating-camouflage to show us renewed as a new dessert at all insignificant.
A slightly wet cake or Easter Tsoureki or Cookies are ideal to absorb moisture and flavors from other ingredients which it is paired. With a pastry cream, whipped cream and our favorite sweets create a delicious dessert!

No Knead Greek Easter Brioche-Tsoureki

Easter buns without kneading with easy and simple process of "sleep bread" of Focaccia. The waiting time to activate the yeast is higher, but it all happens during the night, with the dough in the fridge "sleeping", and only the next morning you make in braids or buns put small stick forms. This fermentation process has the effect of improving and enhancing the taste.
The addition of spices makes them particularly fragrant and delicious. And the honey makes them mildly sweet, fluffy and very soft.
If you like the idea, the process will delight you, as the result too.
