Feast Your Eyes: Mushroom brioche

a brioche in the shape of  a mushroom
I've never made brioche. I've spent some time looking at the molds at Fante's (although I've never been able to justify the purchase) and I always enjoyed the bread when it's entered my life fully baked. But it's just one of those things I haven't attempted on my own. Given my tendency to become addicted to bread products, I do believe that if I started with brioche, I wouldn't be able to stop.

I do admire the attempts of others to make this noble, egg-y bread and the Tooknap Press has made some really cool examples of this delicious treat, including the mushroom shaped loaf you see above. I would like a bite right now.

this was completely an experiment, since I ran out of mini brioche pans, & so just filled a tall mini cake pan halfway with a tight ball of dough. so have fun playing! you don't need "proper" pans to bake brioches, & most, if not all, recipes, will direct you on how to bake them in loaf pans. xoxoxox
