Easter Brassadeaux

Picture : Pinterest


Even if Easter is finished, we really wanted to give you this recipe because it is a typical pastry from Provence.

Actually, the word Brassadeau (which has the word « arm » in french in its name) comes from Middle Ages : engaged people had to put this orange blossom pastry around their wrists to show they were together.

Today it is just a traditional Easter pastry but it is delicious, you need to taste it ! As always in our recipes, you will find a great Provençal wine to match it.

Ingredients

-       600 g of bread flour
-       3 soup spoons of orange-flower water
-       4 eggs
-       50 mL of warm milk
-       80 mL of warm water
-       140 g of sugar
-       50 g of soft butter (in cubes)
-       2 teaspoons of dried yeast

Recipe

5 At the end of the program, degas the dough and make 8 to 10 balls

A wine to be served with

We recommend to choose a straight white wine, it will be perfect with this pastry. Indeed if you choose a sweet wine there will be too much sugar in this recipe. We selected the Château du Galoupet Côtes de Provence which is wonderful !
