Farm Fresh Milk Toast Cooking Steps

Put all ingredients except butter into the mixing bowl of a Haishi HM741 chef machine

Start at speed 1 to mix all ingredients, then switch to speed 2 after the dough forms

After kneading the dough until smooth, add softened butter and continue kneading at speed 2

Knead until the butter is completely absorbed, the dough becomes smoother, and has a certain glossiness

Take out a portion of the dough and stretch it to form a strong gluten film

Knead the dough into a ball, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it ferment in a warm place

Ferment until it doubles in size. Poke a hole in the middle with a floured finger. The hole should not shrink or collapse, indicating that the dough has fermented properly

Take out the dough, divide it into 4 equal portions, deflate and knead into balls, then let them rest for 15 minutes

Roll out the dough once, then let it rest for another 15 minutes before rolling it out again

Place the dough in a 450g toast mold and cover it with plastic wrap

Put it in the oven for two rounds of fermentation, with a bowl of hot water in the oven

When it is 90% fermented, brush the surface with egg wash, then put it in a preheated oven. Bake at 160°C (320°F) for the upper heat and 200°C (392°F) for the lower heat for 35-40 minutes

Tear the rustic toast and enjoy~
