Fluffy Rolls

230g milk
75g butter (softened)
20g fresh yeast
20g sugar
500g bread flour
10-15g salt (*)
1 small egg
1 tbsp milk
Sesame, poppy seeds, anise seeds ...etc


* Put milk, butter, yeast and sugar in TM Bowl. Mix for 30 seconds on Speed 5
* Sift in flour. Add salt. Mix for 30 seconds on Speed 6
* Knead for 3 minutes
* Let it rise in TM Bowl for 1 hour (Or transfer it into a deep bowl and cover with plastic film)


* Get approx 85g pieces, roll into a ball shape, place in a baking paper covered tray. Flatten them a bit by pressing with your palm. Cover with a tea towel. Let them rise for 1 hour


* Beat egg and milk. Brush rolls with it. Sprinkle with sesame, poppy seeds etc
* Bake in preheated oven at 180ºC for 20 minutes.


(*) The salt amount in the original recipe was indicated as 20g, however I thought 20g of salt would be too much for this dough so I reduced it to 15g. It resulted saltier than my usual bread or roll recipes, yet it wasn't oversalted and I liked it. If you don't like salt much, I'd recommend you to use 10g. In my opinion 20g is too much!


Adapted with a few changes from Soffici Panini ai Semi recipe in the book named Il Buon Profumo del Pane.
