Place sugar and water in a microwave-safe dish and heat in the microwave at 600W for 30 seconds.

Add yeast and 3/4 cup (about 100 grams) of bread flour and mix well.

Add the remaining bread flour, salt, butter, and beaten egg, and combine into a dough.

Turn the dough out onto a surface and knead by pressing with the palm of your hand. If the dough is dry, add lukewarm water; if sticky, add more bread flour to adjust.

For detailed kneading instructions, refer to Recipe ID: 19739659.

Return the dough to the microwave-safe dish and heat in the microwave at 600W for 20 seconds.

Divide the dough into 4 pieces, shape into balls, place on a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest in a warm place, like on top of the refrigerator, for 10 minutes.

Brush the surface of the dough with beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 15-20 minutes.

Add your favorite fillings and enjoy. ♡
