Ingredients
Main Dough
1,075gProcess
Preparation
Cook the potatoes in advance. Once cooled, smash them thoroughly to ensure a smooth integration into the dough.
Initial Mixing
5 minutesCombine the flour, milk, smashed potatoes, sugar, and yeast in a mixing bowl. Mix for 5 minutes until a cohesive mass forms.
Development
5 minutesAdd the egg and mustard to the bowl. Increase the mixer speed and continue mixing for an additional 5 minutes to develop the gluten structure.
Final Mix
5 minutesIncorporate the butter and salt. Mix on the highest speed for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth, elastic, and the butter is fully emulsified.
Bulk Fermentation
1 hourTransfer the dough to a greased plastic container. Cover and allow it to rise at room temperature for approximately 1 hour.
Shaping and Proofing
2-3 hoursDivide the dough into 10 equal portions (approximately 105g each). Shape into smooth rounds and place on a baking sheet. Proof for 2–3 hours in a warm, humid environment (e.g., an oven with a cup of boiling water).
Finishing
Apply an egg wash to the surface of the proofed buns. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Standard
With steam; reduce heat upon loading
Post-Bake Treatment
Immediately after removing the buns from the oven, brush the tops with melted butter while they are still hot to soften the crust.
