How to make Japanese salt bread

The kitchen is a place for making delicious food, but in modern people's homes, the kitchen has almost become a decoration. Most people think that cooking is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is not as economical as eating out. The Japanese salt bread is simple to make, economical and healthy, and can easily resolve your concerns.

1. Except for 16 grams of butter, put all other ingredients into the mixing bowl and knead the dough for 15 minutes.

2. Add butter and continue the two kneading steps to knead out the fascia.

3. Take out the dough and let it ferment at room temperature for about an hour until it doubles in size.

4. Divide the dough into four portions, each weighing about 55 grams. Roll into balls, cover with a damp cloth and let stand for 10 minutes to relax.

5. Prepare an appropriate amount of butter at this time. I don’t have salted butter, so I mixed an appropriate amount of fine salt into the unsalted butter.

6. Flatten the dough slightly with your hands and fold it left and right as shown in the picture.

7. Fold the dough up and down again.

8. Pinch the seams of the dough and rub it into a teardrop shape with your hands.

9. Roll the dough into a shape that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and spread butter on it. Be careful not to spread butter on the bottom part of the dough to avoid affecting adhesion.

10. Roll up the dough from top to bottom into shape (my hands didn’t roll it up beautifully), put it in the oven for secondary fermentation at 40 degrees for 40 minutes.

11. Brush with egg liquid (if there is extra) and add a few black sesame seeds.

12. After preheating the oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes, adjust the temperature to 160 degrees for the upper and lower tubes and bake for 15 minutes. If you feel that the color is not enough, you can bake it for two more minutes, but you need to watch it to make sure it is not over-baked.

13. It’s baked.

14. Let’s eat.

Enjoying life actually also includes enjoying delicious food. As long as you master the method of making Japanese salt bread, enjoying delicious food becomes a simple thing.
