Soft as clouds【Milk Bread】

Overview

Thousands of people have made the [Milk Bread Rolls] at Zha and Lu, which shows that this roll is very tempting. After trying it, I found that this roll is really well-deserved. The finished product is very fragrant and soft, and its softness is as soft as a cloud as described in the title. Even our four-year-old, who has a picky mouth, ate two of them after the meal under our strict control. This bread recipe is made using the Chinese method. When the main dough is kneaded, it is very wet and sticky at first, but the butter is added and kneaded until the film is no longer sticky. Therefore, it is recommended that you use a bread machine or chef's machine to knead the dough. That way you will not have this problem. Please be careful not to add additional flour as much as possible

  1. Mix all the ingredients for the medium-sized dough evenly and knead it into a smooth dough (just knead the medium-sized dough until it is smooth, no need to remove the dough)

  2. Place in a basin, cover with plastic wrap, and ferment at room temperature until 3 to 4 times in size. I kneaded the medium-sized dough the night before and put it in the refrigerator. The next morning, I took it out and fermented it until it doubled in size, and then let it ferment at room temperature until it tripled in size

  5. Stir until the dough can be pulled out into a large, flexible film. Place the dough in the bread machine barrel to proof for about 30 minutes (shorten the time appropriately when the weather is hot). The purpose of proofing is to relax the dough and make it easier to work with. It is not fermentation and does not need to be several times larger

Watch carefully and cover with tin foil after the surface is colored. Please adjust the oven temperature and time according to your own oven. I baked it at 165 degrees for 18 minutes, then covered it with tin foil, adjusted the oven temperature to 170 degrees, and continued to bake for another 10 minutes
