Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Warm the milk and dissolve the yeast in it, add about 500 gr of flour to make a batter and let it stand for 2 1/2-3 hours so that it rises well (you can also do that from the previous evening, you save a lot of time and they are more traditional this way).
* Step 2
Put the rest of the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the middle. Add the eggs beaten with the sugar, 1 shot of the water with the mahlab, the mastic, the zest and the leaven and knead starting from the edges to the center.
* Step 3
Add the warm butter last and knead till it is incorporated with the rest of the ingredients.
* Step 4
Let the dough rise for 2 1/2-3 and then knead thoroughly once more.
* Step 5
Let it rise once more, press it lightly to deflate and form the tsourekia in the shape that you desire. Place them on a buttered tray and let them rise well.
* Step 6
Preheat the oven at 180 degrees, brush the tsourekia with the egg yolks and sprinkle with the almonds.
* Step 7
Bake for 30`-40, depending on their size.
