Professional Baking Tips
Creating the perfect milk bread requires attention to detail. The dough’s temperature and consistency are crucial factors in achieving the desired texture. Maintain all ingredients at room temperature for optimal results. When kneading, the dough should feel soft and slightly tacky but not stick to your hands. The butter should be softened but not melted to ensure proper incorporation.
