Critical Success Points
- • Activating the yeast (step 2) – ensure milk is lukewarm, not hot
- • Kneading until smooth (step 4) – under‑kneaded dough won’t rise properly
- • First rise until doubled (step 5) – timing and warm environment are key
- • Incorporating the filling without over‑pressing (step 7)
- • Second rise (step 8) – gives a light crumb
- • Baking at the correct temperature (step 10)
Safety Warnings
- • Handle hot oven with oven mitts
- • Do not consume raw dough containing raw eggs
- • Keep yeast away from children’s eyes
