Ingredients

• 250 g flour

• 1½ cups milk

• 2 teaspoons salt

• 1 teaspoon sugar

• 1 tablespoon instant yeast

• ½ teaspoon ground ginger

• 100 g chopped leeks and parsley

• 100 g chopped scallions

• 100 g chopped walnuts

• Vegetable oil, as needed

Topping

• 1 egg yolk

• 1 tablespoon milk

• 1 tablespoon brewed saffron

• Scallions, as needed

Instructions

1. Pour the milk into a small saucepan and warm it over low heat. Add the salt, sugar, and instant yeast. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the yeast to activate.

2. Combine the flour and ground ginger in a large bowl. Add the warm milk mixture and knead with lightly oiled hands until the dough becomes smooth and uniform.

3. Place the dough in a bowl greased with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until it doubles in size.

4. Punch down the dough with your fist to release the air, then knead it for about 10 minutes.

5. Add the chopped herbs, scallions, and walnuts to the dough. Knead again until everything is evenly incorporated.

6. To prepare the topping, combine the egg yolk, milk, and brewed saffron in a small bowl. Lightly whisk with a fork until smooth.

7. Place the dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the egg-yolk mixture evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with additional chopped scallions if desired.

8. Bake in the center of a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 30 minutes, or until the bread is golden and fully baked.

Serve warm with soup, salad, or simply enjoy it fresh from the oven.
