Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius.

In a bowl, mix together half a teaspoon of salt, half a teaspoon of nutmeg, 100 grams of granulated sugar, and 15 grams of yeast.

Gradually add 500 grams of flour and mix thoroughly.

Add one egg and two teaspoons of vanilla extract, mixing well.

Gradually add 100 grams of milk and then 250 grams of water, mixing until combined.

If using a hand mixer, continue kneading by hand for about five minutes if necessary.

Set the dough aside and apply some butter to the work surface.

Flatten the dough and apply butter to the center, then fold and knead the dough to incorporate the butter.

Continue kneading and smacking the dough on the worktop to achieve a firm, soft dough.

Once the dough is smooth, cover it and let it rise until doubled in size.

Divide the dough to make two loaves, weighing the dough for equal sizes.

Grease the baking tin with butter to prevent sticking.

Flatten the dough, then roll and press it, pinching the seams to seal.

Place the shaped dough into the baking tin and cover until doubled in size.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
