Braided Sweet Bread with Pearl Sugar

A soft, milky dough braided into a tall plait, glazed with egg and crowned with crunchy pearl sugar that stays white and sparkly after baking. The crumb is tender and lightly sweet with a whisper of cardamom. Slice it thick for coffee breaks or weekend brunch, and toast any leftovers with butter.
