Miso Brioches

This small batch of brioche recipe is ultra soft, rich, and buttery! Not only delicious to eat, but easy to make too! The miso paste (a Japanese condiment made by fermenting soya beans with salt and a fungus called koji; it is salty, nutty, and slightly sweet all at the same time) gives the bread a distinct, full-bodied umami flavour.
Proof the rich brioche dough in the refridgerator for 2-3 hours or up to overnight, so that it's easier to shape when the dough is fully cooled. Plus that long cool proofing also allows the dough to develop more flavour.

 
  • 250 g All purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 80 g Butter, cool but pliable
  • 10 g Fresh yeast, crumbled
  • 2 tbsp Miso paste
  • 85 ml Water
  • 1 Egg, lightly beaten
  1. Mix the flour and sugar in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix the butter with the yeast, miso paste and water. Beat the egg and add half of it to the flour mixture with the yeast-miso mixture. Mix first at slow speed until everything just roughly combined, then increase the speed and knead until the dough has become smooth and elastic.
  2. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover the bowl, and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for about an hour (or refrigerate it for 2-3 hours and up to overnight. The dough will firm up so it will be easier to shape).
  3. Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface, remove about 90 grams of dough, then divide both pieces of dough into 6 equal pieces each. Roll each piece into a ball.
  4. Grease a jumbo 6-cup muffin tin and place the 6 large dough balls in them. With your finger, press a well into each of the large dough balls and place each of the small dough balls on top. Cover the brioches with a damp tea towel and leave to rest for 45-60 minutes.
  5. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F. Brush the brioches with the remaining egg. Place the muffin tin in the middle of hot oven and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy them while still warm.

  25. My man loves miso so we have few pack of miso paste in the fridge. From the white version to black miso. Never thought of adding miso in pastry. This is interesting. I believe this savoury brioches would be tasty.
