1. 1 To make the dough, take 50ml of light cream, 250ml of pure milk, 20g of fine sugar, 3.5g of high-sugar resistant yeast, 40g of egg white, and 500g of high-gluten flour. Mix the above ingredients into a smooth dough. Put the kneaded dough into a container, cover it with plastic wrap, seal it tightly, and put it in the refrigerator to ferment for 12 to 20 hours.

   

2. 2 To make the main dough, divide the fermented Chinese sesame seeds into several small pieces, mix with 34g of egg white, 30g of milk powder, 7g of salt, 70g of fine sugar, and 20g of butter until it becomes a glove film, as shown in the picture~

   

3. 3 For fermentation, put the kneaded dough into a container, cover it with plastic wrap and ferment at room temperature until it is 2 to 2.5 times in size.

   

4. 4 Dip your fingers into some dry powder and insert them into the dough until the surface does not shrink or collapse.

   

5. 5 Take out the fermented dough and deflate it, then divide it into 16 equal parts.
