2. Detailed explanation of production steps
Step 1: Knead the dough
Mix the ingredients except butter, stir with chopsticks into a fluffy consistency, and knead with your hands until it initially forms a ball. Add softened butter and continue kneading until smooth (about 15-20 minutes).
Step 2: Primary fermentation
Place the dough into an oiled container, cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and ferment at 28°C until it doubles in size (about 1 hour). The recently popular "refrigerated slow fermentation method" can be extended to 12-18 hours for better flavor.
Step Three: Plastic Surgery
After deflating, cut into required sizes, round and relax for 15 minutes, then shape into final shape. Please refer to the relevant tutorials for the "braided bread" style that has been popular on short video platforms recently.
Step 4: Secondary fermentation
Ferment at around 35℃ until 1.5 times in size (about 40 minutes). You can use the fermentation function of the oven, or put it in a closed space and add a bowl of hot water.
Step 5: Bake
Preheat the oven to 180°C, brush the surface with egg wash or milk, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. If using an air fryer, it is recommended to bake at 160°C for 15 minutes, turning over halfway through.
