Welcome to the video.

For the recipe, we need sugar, vanilla, milk, dry yeast, salt, butter or margarine, egg, flour, and boiling water.

Hydrate the dry yeast with boiling water.

Mix the milk with the boiling water and melted butter or margarine.

Add half of the sugar to the mixture.

Let the mixture cool slightly before adding the egg and yeast.

Let the yeast activate for about 5-10 minutes.

Once the yeast is frothy, incorporate the flour into the mixture.

Add the remaining sugar and a splash of oil.

Add salt last to avoid slowing down the yeast.

Knead the dough for about 10-15 minutes until gluten is developed.

Check the gluten window test to ensure proper kneading.
