Ingredients
  

  • Tangzhong For a Soft, Fluffy Texture
  • Water
  • Bread flour
Dough Base
  • Bread flour for perfect chewiness
  • White granulated sugar adds a touch of sweetness
  • Table salt enhances flavor
  • Instant yeast helps the bread rise
  • Milk powder adds richness and softness
  • Egg contributes to a tender crumb
  • Milk for moisture and depth
  • Unsalted butter gives a rich and buttery texture
Garlic Butter Filling

  • Fresh garlic cloves brings a bold, roasted garlic flavor
  • Table salt balances the richness

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Tangzhong: Cook bread flour and water into a thick paste and let it cool.
  2. Knead the Dough: Combine flour, yeast, milk powder, sugar, and salt. Mix in the egg, milk, and cooled tangzhong. Knead in butter until smooth and elastic.
  3. Let It Rise: Place dough in a warm area to double in size.
  4. Make the Garlic Butter Spread: Mix softened butter with minced garlic, salt, and chopped green onions.
  5. Shape and Fill the Dough: Roll out the dough, spread the garlic butter filling, and sprinkle with green onions. Roll and braid the dough, then place it in a loaf pan.
  6. Final Rise and Bake: Let the dough rise again, brush with egg wash, and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25-30 minutes.
