Chef's tips
Bake in a big tray so buns touch slightly; they stay softer and pull apart easily for sharing.
Ingredient substitutions
- milk → water with a splash of powdered milk if fresh milk is unavailable
Storage
Store covered at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate up to 5 days.
Reheating
Warm individual buns in the microwave for 15–20 seconds.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Rolling too loosely lets the filling spill out
- •Skipping the second rise gives dense buns
