On a floured surface knead the dough again, divide it into 16–20 pieces, shape each into a ~22 cm long strand, twist two strands together like a cord, form nest shapes and press the ends together. Place on parchment-lined baking trays (or two). Beat the egg yolk with the remaining milk and brush over the dough. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C (180 °C fan; gas level 3) for 20–25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
