  • Work the dough quickly: Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to prevent the dough from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Brush the braid with egg wash before baking: This will help to give the braid a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the braid warm or at room temperature: This will allow the flavors to develop fully.
