How to Make Choereg Bread Machine
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the following ingredients to your bread machine in the order specified by your manufacturer's instructions: 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon mahleb, 1 tablespoon caraway seeds, 4 cups all-purpose flour, and the yeast mixture.
- Select the dough setting on your bread machine and let it run.
- Once the dough cycle is complete, gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces (approximately 1.5 oz each).
- Roll each piece into a long rope (about 12 inches). Braid three ropes together to create individual choereg strands.
- Let the braided loaves rise for 30-60 minutes in a warm place, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Brush the braided loaves with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water).
- Sprinkle generously with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your delicious Armenian Choereg!
