Add 1/2 cup (3/4) cup water, egg, margarine, salt, sugar, flour and yeast
to bread machine pan in the order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough/
manual cycle. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a
lightly floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough
easy to handle. (For 1 1/2 pound recipe, divide dough in half to make 2
loaves.)
For each loaf, divide dough into 2 pieces, one about 2/3 of the dough and
the other about 1/3 of the dough. Divide larger piece into 3 equal pieces;
roll into 12 inch ropes. Place ropes on greased baking sheet. Braid by
bringing left rope under center rope; lay it down. Bring right rope under
new center rope; lay it down. Repeat to end. Pinch ends to seal. Divide
remaining pieces into 3 equal pieces. Roll into 10 inch ropes; braid. Place
small braid on top of large braid. Pinch ends firmly to seal and to secure
to large braid.
Cover; let rise in warm, draft free place until almost doubled in size, 15
to 20 minutes. Lightly beat egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water; brush over
braids. Bake at 375 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes or until done, covering
with foil after 15 minutes to prevent excess browning. (For even browning
when baking 2 loaves, switch positions of sheets halfway through baking.
Remove from sheet (s); cool on wire rack.
