Balloon Bread
- Warm Milk Temperature: Ensure the milk is warm (not hot) to activate the yeast properly. The ideal temperature is between 100-110°F (37-43°C).
- Flour Control: Add the flour gradually to avoid making the dough too dry. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
- Resting Time: Allowing the dough to rest for a few minutes before baking helps to achieve the balloon-like puffiness.
- Oven Temperature: Make sure your oven is fully preheated to 250°C (482°F) for the best puffing effect. If your oven temperature is too low, the bread may not puff up properly.
