1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves

3 eggs
1 egg yolk
5+ cups all-purpose flour
1cup dried currants
1cup chopped mixed candied peel
1 egg white

Mix yeast, sugar and water. Let stand 10 min. Mix together milk, butter, sugar, salt and spices. Add flour. Add peel and currants. Knead 5+ min. Let rise double. Cut into 24 pieces and place on greased sheet. Let rise again.
When buns have risen, take a sharp or serrated knife and carefully slash buns with a cross. Brush them with egg white and place in oven. In the meantime, pre-heat oven to 400 F. Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 F, then Bake until golden brown, about 5 -15 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack. Whisk together glaze ingredients, and spoon over buns in a cross pattern. Serve warm, if possible.
