What is instant yeast?
- Instant yeast is a type of dry yeast, fine granules, and brown in color. Unlike other types of yeast, instant yeast does not need to be activated beforehand and can be mixed directly with flour.
- Because it is easy to store and use, almost all quick and delicious cake recipes use instant yeast. Additionally, with the same amount of flour, the amount of instant yeast needed will be less than that of dry yeast because it can produce more gas!
How to choose fresh and delicious chicken eggs
- Chicken eggs are a very popular food item, but to choose good eggs you need to pay attention to the eggshell first. If they are industrial chicken eggs, the shell will be dark brown, evenly colored, without cracks, and free from black spots.
- The longer industrial chicken eggs are kept, the more black spots will appear on the eggshell, and it will become pale. Meanwhile, free-range chicken eggs may have a pale shell but are very nutritious.
- You can use your hand to feel the surface of the eggshell; if the surface is rough and slightly coarse, it is a fresh chicken egg, while a smooth surface indicates that the egg has been stored for quite a while.

Mixing and Kneading the Dough
In the first step, prepare a large bowl and add 200g of flour type 13, 30g of sugar, and 5g of salt, then use a whisk to mix well.
Next, add 5g of yeast, 40g of unsalted butter (melted beforehand), 1 chicken egg, 80ml of cold water, and 60ml of sweetened fresh milk into the mixture and continue to mix well for about 2 minutes.
Then, use your hands to knead the dough mixture for about 15 minutes until the dough is smooth and no longer sticky.
Tip: To check if the dough is ready, pull a small amount of dough into a thin film; if it stretches easily without breaking, it is ready. The finished bread will be very chewy and delicious! -
Proofing the dough and shaping
After kneading, you spread a thin layer of cooking oil inside the bowl and then add the dough. Next, you cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let it proof for about 30 minutes until the dough doubles in size.
Then, you take the dough out and knead it again for about 3 minutes. After that, you divide the dough mixture into 10 small round pieces (about 50g each).
You shape each piece into a round ball and roll the dough into a thin diamond shape. Next, you carefully roll the dough back and then roll it into a long piece.
Finally, you place the dough in the oven, cover it, and let it proof for about 90 minutes.

Baking the bread
After proofing, you brush a layer of beaten egg yolk on the surface of the bread.
You preheat the oven for about 15 minutes at 190 degrees Celsius, then place the bread inside to bake for about 15 minutes at the same temperature.
After this time, the bread will be evenly golden; do not rush to take it out, but wait for the bread to cool in the oven.

Making egg oil sauce
While waiting for the bread to cool, you add 2 egg yolks, 5g of salt, 10g of sugar into a small bowl and mix well.
Next, you use a hand mixer on low speed and slowly pour in 200ml of cooking oil, mixing until the oil is completely blended into the sauce and the result is smooth.
Then, you transfer the sauce into a piping bag and store it in the refrigerator for about 15 – 20 minutes.
