How to prepare milk buns?
1. Activate the yeast
In a small bowl, mix the warm milk with the active dry yeast and sugar.
Let it sit for about 5 minutes, until the mixture starts to become foamy. This step allows us to check that the yeast is indeed active.
2. Prepare the dough
Pour the flour and salt into a large bowl.
Then add the milk and yeast mixture, then stir in the eggs and softened butter.
Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated and a dough begins to form.
3. Knead the dough
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it for about 10 minutes.
The dough should gradually become smoother, supple and elastic.
You can also use a stand mixer equipped with a dough hook and knead on low speed for about 8 to 10 minutes.
