Cooking instructions
Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.
- 1
Mix the dough
Combine the flour, yeast and salt. Add the water and remaining liquid ingredients and mix until no dry flour remains.
- 2
Knead until smooth
Knead by hand for 8–10 minutes, or 6–8 minutes in a mixer, until the dough is elastic and can stretch without tearing easily.
- 3
First rise
Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover and leave in a warm room until roughly doubled. In a hot Thai kitchen this can happen faster than the clock suggests.
- 4
Shape
Gently deflate the dough and shape it for 8 long hot-dog buns. Keep the surface taut without squeezing out every gas bubble.
- 5
Final proof
Cover and proof until puffy and the dough springs back slowly when lightly pressed.
- 6
Bake and cool
Bake in a fully preheated oven until deeply coloured and cooked through. Cool on a rack before slicing or filling.
