Stiring enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.Place dough in a well- greased bowl, turning to grease top. cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 1-1/2 hours, or until is doubled in size. Punch dough down. Divide into 3 equal portions.Shape each portion into a 14 inch rope. Place ropes on a greased baking sheet ( do not stretch) . Pinch ends together at one end to seal. Braid ropes, pinch loose ends together. Cover and let rise 1 hour or until doubled again. Combine egg white and water, stir well. Brush egg white mixture over top and sides of loaf. Sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake a 350 degrees 30 to 35 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on wire rack.
