Tips:
1. The thinner the dough is stretched, the better, so that the layers will be richer.
2. It doesn't matter if it is broken, just roll it up.
3. The shape and the mold do not matter, just roll it up and put it in the mold at will. There are no restrictions on round, square, and rectangular shapes.
4. The water absorption of each brand of flour is different. Add or subtract liquid according to your own flour situation. The bread flour of Arowana I used, 300 grams of flour is just right with an egg of more than 50 grams and 150 grams of milk.
5. The temperature of each oven is also different. Control the temperature according to the actual situation of your own oven. Remember to cover with tin foil in the middle.
