When baking bread how do you make it brown on top?
Bread normally browns on its own. If you brush with some sort of wash that will encourage it to brown and even give it a shine. Two types of washes are an egg wash and a milk wash. You simply scramble one egg very well and then using a pastry brush brush the top before baking. In addition this will allow the bread to expand as it will stay moist. I encourage the use of a slash or two to give a place for expansion.
