Instructions:
1. Dissolve the contents of bag number 2 in warm milk (37°C).
2. Pour the ingredients in bag number 1 in your stand mixer bowl. Add the warm milk mix, 2 whole eggs and beat with the dough hook for 4 minutes at medium speed.
3. Add the softened butter and mix at high speed for 8 minutes. Stop kneading at regular intervals and scrape the sides of the bowl.
4. Cover with a cloth and leave to prove at 28°C for 2 hours.

Recommendations: Ideally you should use a proofing chamber, otherwise you can preheat your oven to 30°C then turn it off before proofing. You can also place your bowl near a heater or fireplace.
5. Sprinkle the dough with flour then knock back with your hand to get rid of the fermentation gas.
6. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll them on a floured surface to shape them into balls. For perfect results, weigh the dough balls to make sure they are identical.
7. Arrange the dough balls into a brioche mould, slightly greased beforehand.
8. Leave to rise at 28°C for 1h30 or 2h00. The dough should double in volume.
9. Glaze the surface of the brioche with an egg yolk mixed with a little water. Drizzle pearl sugar (bag number 3) over the surface of the brioche.
10. Bake in a fan-assisted oven preheated at 180°C (gas 4) for 20 to 25 minutes.
