I didn’t convey my starter all the way down to Fort Lauderdale with me this season, so any bread baking I do right here might be with IDY. For our ceremonial dinner yesterday I made a decision to make some easy milk roll. These use a tangzhong and King Arthur’s AP flour. They have been tender and fluffy and appeared to be loved by all. The scent of the dough is so completely different when utilizing IDY, I usually neglect how completely different it’s from my starter till I exploit IDY which is uncommon.

Prepare dinner Tangzhong mixing flour and milk continually till it turns into a thick roux. Let cool earlier than including to ultimate dough. Or add to chilly milk and egg to chill it down.
Mix room temperature butter and flour collectively and put aside to include after the dough is effectively developed.
Whisk collectively dry elements flour salt and yeast.
To combine by hand, add the salt and yeast to the moist elements (milk, tangzhong and egg) to dissolve. Subsequent add the flour and blend with a silicone spatula till no dry flour stays. Relaxation 10 minutes. Subsequent carry out French folds till the dough is effectively developed. Smear the blended butter/flour onto the dough after which fold to include after which carry out additional French folds till effectively developed. Kind into a decent ball and place in a bowl lined with plastic or a moist fabric and place in a heat place till doubled (about 1hr 20 minutes). Can do a chilly retard in a single day for subsequent day bake.
Butter a big baking pan. Punch the dough down after which divide into 12 equal parts. Kind every into tight boules. Place within the buttered baking pan appear facet down. Cowl them and permit them to totally proof about 1 hour 20-30 minutes, they need to go the poke take a look at.

Take away the bread from the oven however not the pans, brush the tops with butter whereas scorching, after which let cool for 10 minutes earlier than pulling the bread from the pans. You might want to slip a butter knife down the perimeters of the pan to loosen the bread, however I’ve discovered parchment paper to be pointless. Sprinkle with fleur de sel if you want after brushing with butter.
