| 1. Make tangzhong (water roux) by wisking together the 25 g flour with the 125 ml of water in a small saucepan. | 2. Heat mixture over medium-low heat while stirring constantly until it thickens enough that your stirring leaves 'lines' or 'trails' on the surface, and then remove from heat immediately and scrape into a small bowl. | 3. Cover bowl with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying on the surface and cool to room temperature. | 4. Put milk, egg and cooled tangzhong in mixer bowl or bread machine pan. | 5. Add remaining ingredients except butter and turn on machine to begin mixing. | 6. Mix until ingredients just come together and then add butter. | 7. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic and will form a windowpane when stretched. | 8. Proof dough, covered, until it doubles. | 9. Deflate dough and divide into 4 equal portions, trying to make them as equal as possible (weighing is the best way). | 10. Cover and rest 15 minutes. | 11. Roll out each portion into an oval shape. | 12. Fold each side of the oval to the middle and roll again to flatten the seam. | 13. By hand, roll up each portion of folded dough starting at the unfolded end, so it resembles a swiss roll. | 14. Place all four rolls into a greased 9" x 5" bread pan with the ends of the rolls facing the long sides of the pan. | 15. Cover and proof until doubled. | 16. At this point you can apply an egg-wash by beating an egg and lightly brushing it over the top of the dough (optional). | 17. Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for about 30 minutes, until a deep golden brown. | 18. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack. | 19. If you didn't use an egg wash, you can brush tops of hot bread with melted butter if desired. | 20. NOTE: for those of you who do not have a scale, the measured ingredients would be: tangzhong=2 Tbsp + 2 tsp flour, 1/2 c water, Recipe=2 1/2 c bread flour, 2 tsp instant yeast, 4 T sugar, 1 tsp salt, 4 tsp milk powder, 1 egg, 1/2 c milk, 3 T butter. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
