Directions
Mix the soy milk, honey, and yeast and set it aside for 10 minutes.
Combine the bread flour and soy flour in a large bowl.
Add the oil, eggs, and egg yolk to the milk, honey, and yeast mixture.
Stir with a wooden spoon until blended.
Add the flours to the liquid mixture, stir until a dough is formed, and turn the dough onto a floured board.
Knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
Form into a ball, coat with a bit of soybean oil, and place in a coat of soy bean oil and place in a covered bowl.
Let rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
Punch the dough down, knead about 3 minutes, and braid or shape into any desired form.
Transfer to a greased baking sheet.
Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Beat the egg white with a folk.
Use a brush to coat the top of the loaf.
Sprinkle poppy seeds on top of loaf.
Bake at 375℉ (190℃) for 20 minutes.
Cool on a rack.
