INSTRUCTIONS
Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the 1/4 cup of warm water. Let stand
for 5 minutes.
Combine the flours and salt in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the
center of the flour mixture and add the egg, oil, yeast mixture and
remaining 1-1/4 cups of water. Mix well. Knead the dough on a floured
board, adding more whole wheat flour until the dough is smooth and
elastic. Place in an oiled bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let rise
until doubled, about 1 hour.
Divide the dough into three parts. Roll each third into a strip
about 15 inches long. Braid the strips together and place on a
lightly-oiled baking sheet.
Brush with the beaten egg. Sprinkle on the poppy seeds. Cover and
let rise until doubled.
Bake in a 375-degree oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden
brown.
