Continue to add more flour as needed and
knead for about 10 to 15 minutes. The dough will become smooth and
elastic. Add a little oil to a bowl and place the kneaded dough into the
bowl. Turn the dough over a few time to lightly coat all sides of the
dough. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to sit till double in size (
about 1 hour ).

Do the same with the other half of the

wrap. Allow to rest till double in size ( about 1 hour ). After the
dough has risen you want to make the topping. Take the egg white and
place into a bowl. Beat with a whisk till the egg white become a foam.
Brush onto the 2 braided loaves.
