00:00It's so good.
00:01It's your recipe, Mom.
00:02What do you expect?
00:02It is a delicious stolen.
00:04So how many cups of flour?
00:06About five and a half, about a quarter of a cup of warm water.
00:08Okay, so you want to proof the yeast and soften it.
00:11And we need some salt.
00:12Half a teaspoon of salt.
00:13How much sugar?
00:14Six tablespoons.
00:15Okay.
00:16And then this is the ground mace.
00:17Oh, I love mace so much.
00:19And a quarter of a teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg.
00:21So this can be sifted now.
00:23Next step.
00:24Start with three eggs, which you whip up.
00:28You have your cup of milk, 10 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted.
00:34The yeast can go right now.
00:35Okay.
00:37Stir your big heavy yeast doughs by hand.
00:39Put a little more flour in because it's sticky.
00:41I think I'll knead the flour in mine.
00:43This is the part I like.
00:45Yeah, see, she's much better kneader than I am.
00:47So now I should start adding the fruit?
00:49Yeah, you could put dough in the bowl and add the fruit.
00:52Chopped citron, my favorite.
00:54You already put your currants in it.
00:55There's one cup of currant soaked and a quarter of a cup of cognac.
00:59Yeah.
00:59And there's golden raisins.
01:02Chopped apricots, which is beautiful.
01:04And don't forget the almonds.
01:06And it really helps to have a nice big area in which to work like this.
01:10Very nice.
01:11There.
01:12And then to get the beautiful separations, we can use those scissors.
01:16Put them into a 375-degree oven until golden brown and crispy.
01:22Dust it with powdered sugar.
01:23And if you're looking for a little bit, you can use them to make sure you're going to make sure
