HOKKAIDO MILK ROLLS RECIPE
Had been eyeing this tangzhong bread for quite some time. Today I have a chance to bake them in my kitchen.
Hokkaido Milk Rolls use a "roux" starter known as tangzhong in the dough. You have to prepare it before proceeding to mix the dough. This tangzhong is made by whisking water, whole milk and flour until no lumps then cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it thicken. The cooled roux is added to the rest of the ingredients to combine and kneaded, forms into a soft pliable dough.
After the dough has doubled in size. you can easily shape this into a big loaf but I shaped them into rolls. I get 12 rolls out of this recipe.
From this basic recipe, it can be used to make cinnamon rolls, monkey bread, pull apart or stuffed bread either sweet or savory. The options are endless. When you have a base, you can add all type of variations. So glad the dough turned out perfect and I don't even need to flour my work space.
Hokkaido Milk Rolls stay soft and fluffy even after a few days. We really enjoy the roll as it is, feel free to slather it with you favorite spreads.
