Is Brioche tressée Halal?
HALAL
This brioche is marked unacceptable because the label itself says the flavouring contains alcohol: “arômes (contient alcool)”. When alcohol is explicitly named in a food ingredient list and its source is not clarified, many Muslims avoid it out of caution, especially since this is not described as vinegar or a fully transformed ingredient. Some scholars, including the European Council for Fatwa and Research, Malaysia's halal authority JAKIM, Indonesia's halal council MUI, and Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, allow such tiny baked traces; we follow the stricter view associated with the UK Halal Monitoring Committee and Mufti Taqi Usmani.
