It tastes so good as I thought, not deception!
Ingredients:
Utane
25g strong flour
125ml water
Dough
125ml lukewarm milk
5g sugar
6g active dried yeast
50g sugar
5g salt
7g milk powder
56g egg (just a bit more than 1 egg)
about 120g utane
30g butter
Red bean paste
Rest of the egg
Optional: Sesame or poppy seed
Instructions:
To prepare the utane, click here
1. Mix sugar and WARM milk, then add in yeast, wait until the yeast floats on the top (about 10mins)
2. Mix all dry ingredients together, then add in wet ingredients. Mix well
3. Add in little cubes of butter and mix well
Knead the dough, when you are able to stretch the dough to become thin layer, that means it's ready
4. Brush some oil in a big mixing bowl and put the dough in it, cover it with plastic wrap
Let rise in a warm place until it is doubled
5. Take the dough on the working surface, punch to deflate some air inside the dough, divide it into 10 portions
roll each small portion into a ball, cover them with plastic wrap and let them rest for 15mins at room temperature
6. Roll out dough into a circle, about palm size, put red bean paste on the dough
Be careful - use a tablespoon (measuring spoon) to scoop the red bean into a ball
7. Close the opening by squeezing the side towards the center, squeeze hard so that the opening won't be broken.
Shape the dough to a ball, turn it upside down with the opening at the bottom
8. Line the tray with baking sheet, place each dough on it
Attention - scattered them with more space as they will be risen in doubled size!
Let the dough rise until doubled in a warm place
9. Preheat the oven at 180°c
Use a scissor to cut the side of the dough 5-6times (see the picture above) - you are not obligated to do that
Brush the rest of the egg on the top
Sprinkle sesame or poppy seed on the top
10. Bake for 15-20mins
Enjoy!
