Instructions

  1. Heat the milk lukewarm and dissolve the yeast in it. Add sugar, flour, lemon zest, salt and oil and knead everything until the dough comes off the bottom of the bowl. Then knead in the raisins. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  2. Now divide the dough into 3 portions and shape into 30 cm long rolls and braid them into a braid. Press the ends tightly, place the braid on a greased baking sheet and let rise for another 30 minutes.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
