As I couldn't twist it nicely,I made it braided instead.The recipe is small,so make sure to double it if you have large family.
I didn't warm the milk and butter first as stated in the recipe because in the recipe it says optional,so I skip it out.
The bread turned out very soft.I liked it very much.
I sprinkle some black sesame seeds on two breads to make it a little different.
Instead of unsalted butter I used salted butter and leave the salt out.
Ingredients:
120g whole milk
15g condensed milk
30g salted butter
30g fine sugar
20g beaten egg
180g bread flour
20g cake flour
1/2 tsp instant yeast
some beaten egg
about 2 tsp sugar
some black or white sesame seeds
Method:
Put everything inside the mixing bowl except butter.
Attach dough hook and beat the ingredients at low speed at first for 10 minutes.Then add in
the butter and continue beating until it turned into a soft dough about 20 minutes.
Sprinkle some flour onto table and some on dough top.Put the dough on the table and press
it lightly.
Divide dough into four.Shape into round shape.Cover with a lid.Let the dough rest for 15
minutes.
Take each dough and sub-divided into three.Roll into long strips all three strips are of equal
length.Start to braid like braiding your hair with both ends pinched and tucked in under.
Repeat with the other 3 dough.Now you got four braids dough.Spray with water.Allow to
proof for 45 minutes or until double in size in a warm place.
Brush with egg wash and sprinkle sugar evenly over the dough surface.
(You can also sprinkle some sesame seeds like I do).
Baked in a preheated oven 170°C for 17-20 minutes.
