Ingredients

Steps

  1. Put all the ingredients except butter into the bread machine and start the dough mixing process. After a program is completed, add softened butter and start the kneading program again until the dough forms a film.

  2. Roll it into a round shape and place it in a warm place to ferment until it is 2-2.5 times larger. The fermentation time will be different depending on the temperature. Keep an eye on the dough during the process. When the dough is fermented, dip your finger in water and poke a hole. If the hole does not shrink, it means it has fermented.

  3. Press and deflate the dough, wrap it up and place it in the refrigerator to rest at minus 16 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes. The relaxation time will depend on how hard the dough becomes, but will depend on the degree of rolling out. The specific length of time will be determined by the thickness of the dough and the temperature of the refrigerator.
