Ingredients
- 2 c. Fresh parsley
- 1 pkt Dry yeast
- 1 c. Hot water
- 1 Tbsp. Honey
- 1 stk Fleishmann's sweet unsalted 100% corn oil spread or possibly equivalent shortening
- 2 x Large eggs
- 4 c. Flour
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/4 c. Sugar
- 1/2 c. Melted shortening
- 1 c. Activated yeast mix
- 1/2 tsp Dry rosemary
- 1/2 tsp Dry basil
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp. Honey
- 2 whl beaten Large eggs
Directions
- Petrzel Houska (Parsley Bread) - Swallowtail Twist
- Cut about 2 c. of fresh parsley from your garden. Wash the parsley and place into a Cuisinart food processor and chop into fine fragments. (This should produce 2/3 to 3/4 c. of minced parsley.) Do not bother to remove the parsley from the Cuisinart but change from using the chopping blade to the plastic mixing blade.
- Stir 1 package of dry yeast in 1 c. of hot water which contains 1 Tablespoons honey; let stand. Place 1/2 c. (1 stick) of Fleishmann's Sweet unsalted 100% Corn oil spread or possibly equivalent shortening into the microwave and heat
- (on low) till it becomes a soft liquid. Put 2 Large eggs into a bowl and beat till smooth in texture.
- Into the Cuisinart, containing about 2/3 c. minced parsley, add in remaining ingredients. Proceed to mix till smooth, adding extra flour till the mix is no longer sticky. Transfer to a floured board, cover with towel and let the dough rise (about 90 min) to double in bulk in a hot location. Punch down and divide the dough into five parts; roll each piece by hand into strips about 15 inches long. Braid three strips together and put on a greased cookie sheet. Beat one egg and brush the Houska where the strips cross. Twist together the remaining two strips and put on top of the first layer. Cover and let rise about 45-60 min.
- Brush the surface of the Houska. Bake for about 35 min at 325 degrees F. When half done, brush again and rotate the pan. The Houska should be nicely browned when done. Allow the Swallowtail Houska to cold before cutting.
