2. Sprinkle remaining yeast over warm milk. Let stand until dissolved.
3. Beat together sugar, eggs, yolks, and vanilla. Mix in yeast/milk mixture. Add sponge and stir until well incorporated.
4. Combine butter and remaining 3 1/2 c. flour tuntil crumbly. Slowly pour in egg mixture and beat on high speed for 3-4 minutes until dough is elastic-looking and long strands form. Beat in fruit and zests. Turn dough into an oiled bowl, cover w/ plastic wrap, and leave in warm place till doubled, 2-3 hours.
5. Fold down bags to form a 3" cuff. Brush inside and out with melted butter.
6. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times to deflate. Divide dough into 3 pieces. Roll each into a ball and drop into prepared bags. Place bags on baking sheet about 4 inches apart and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place until doubled again, about 2 hours.
7. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut an X into the top of each loaf with oiled scissors. Brush tops lightly with egg wash. PLace baking sheet in the bottom 1/3 of the oven. After 10 minutes, lower the heat to 375 degrees. Bake 30 minutes more, if tops get too brown, cover with foil. Loaves are done when a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. |
