Ingredients
- 4 cups (20oz/566g) all-purpose flour
- 1 egg yolk
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast* (if using active yeast see notes)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons (1oz/28g) butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups (12floz/340ml) milk, warmed
Notes
- *If using Active Dried Yeast you need to sponge the yeast to use: This means activating the yeast, usually in the liquids to be used in the recipe. Normally you would bring the sponging liquids to blood temperature, that is when you put your finger into the liquid it should feel neither hot nor cold. A touch of sugar or honey will speed up the activation. This is really ‘proving’ to you that the yeast is good and active. A foam will form/sponge on top of the liquids after 5 mins or so, you stir this through before adding to the flour. Add ¾ in one go, then the remainder until the dough comes together in a clean ball.
