Steps

50 minutes

1

First, activate the yeast by mixing it with water at 100°F (38°C), a little flour, and sugar.
2

Sift the flour and make a well in the center. Add the sugar, dry milk powder, activated yeast, and gradually add the water. Sprinkle the salt around the edge. Mix everything together and knead for about 2 to 3 minutes. Then add the shortening and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.
3

Let the dough rest in a covered bowl for about 15 to 20 minutes. Place a bowl of boiled water in the oven to create steam.
4

After resting, divide the dough into 16 pieces (about 50 grams each), shape into balls, flatten slightly, and let rise in a humid environment (about 80% humidity) for at least 20 minutes.
5

Brush with beaten egg and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 15 minutes.
