Ingredients

Method

Tap a step once you've finished it.

  1. Warm the milk to lukewarm, add the yeast with the sugar, and leave for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add the melted butter, egg yolks and salt, and mix.
  3. Gradually work in the flour, kneading until you get a smooth, elastic dough, slightly firmer than strudel dough.
  4. Grease a large tea towel generously with butter, and dust with flour.
  5. Place the dough in the middle of the cloth, and tie it up loosely into a bundle, so the dough still has room to rise.
  6. Stand the wrapped dough in a large bowl of iced water, so the water doesn't touch the cloth but only chills it from the outside, and leave in the fridge or a cold pantry for 3 hours (in a modern kitchen, simply chilling, covered, in the fridge for at least 3 hours works just as well).
  7. After resting, the dough will be elastic but cold and easy to roll out.
  8. Use this dough to make cinnamon pastry strips, dumplings, or any other fried or boiled pastry of your choice.
