Serving count not stated for this recipe, so quantities are shown as written.
Ingredients
- 10.5 oz bread flour
- 1.75 oz whole wheat flour
- 2 oz cake flour
- 0.5 oz sugar
- 0.2 oz dry yeast
- 0.2 oz salt
- 3.5 oz milk
- 5.5 oz water
- 0.5 oz unsalted butter
- Other: 2.75 oz unsalted butter
- Other: pearl salt, a little
Method
- Combine the bread flour, whole wheat flour, cake flour, sugar, dry yeast, salt, milk, water and the softened dough butter in a mixing bowl.
- Mix at low speed until no dry flour shows.
- Knead at medium speed for 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Round the dough, set it in a bowl, cover with wrap, and proof at room temperature for about 1 hour.
- Divide the proofed dough into ten pieces.
- Round each piece and rest them for 15 minutes as a bench proof.
- Roll one end of each piece out by hand so it tapers into a long teardrop.
- Roll each teardrop out with a rolling pin into a long triangle.
- Lay a baton of the filling butter — the butter cut beforehand into long pieces of about 1/4 oz each — across the wide end and roll up, pinching both sides so the butter cannot leak during proofing.
- Arrange the rolls on an oven pan with space between them and proof for 40 to 45 minutes.
- Spray the tops generously with water from a spray bottle.
- Scatter pearl salt over each roll.
- Bake for 15 minutes in an oven preheated to 400°F, until the crusts are crisp and deep golden.
