Tips:
1. It is best to leave two-thirds of the egg yolk to brush the noodles before baking. The color of the bread is more beautiful.
2. Yeast should be increased or decreased appropriately according to the climate.
3. Please adjust the baking temperature according to the actual situation of your own oven. When baking, you need to observe the coloring state. The surface of the bread can be covered with a layer of tin foil in the middle of the coloring to avoid excessively deep coloring or burning.
