Jasmine Tea Bread Rolls
- 280 grams Bread (strong) flour
- 25 grams Sugar
- 4 grams Salt
- 15 grams Margarine (butter flavored)
- 4 grams Jasmine tea leaves (finely powdered)
- 20 grams Egg
- 22 grams Hoshino natural leaven
- 140 ml Boiling water to brew the jasmine tea
- 1 Kuromame (sweet black beans) or ama-natto (sweetened azuki beans)
- 1 Candied sweet potato
- Pour hot boiling water, add the jasmine tea leaves and brew for 3 minutes.
- This will be the liquid ingredient for the dough.
- Set aside until cooled to 30C.
- Mix all the ingredients except for the margarine, and knead well for about 10 minutes.
- If you have warm hands, reduce the liquid by 10 ml and adjust the amount of moisture as you knead.
- When the flour is thoroughly mixed, add the margarine, and knead for another 10 minutes.
- Place the margarine in the middle of the dough and fold it into the dough.
- Place the dough in a plastic container with scale markings to rise, I used one sold at a dollar store and the dough measured to be 400 ml before it started rising.
- Or you could let the dough rise in a bowl.
- The first rising is complete when the dough rises to about the 1100 ml line (or about 1.5 times larger the original size).
- It will take about 14 hours in the winter, and a little quicker in the summer, so adjust accordingly.
- Place the dough onto a dusted canvas cloth and press down the dough to remove air.
- Dampen the surface of the kuromame and diced candied sweet potato, and drain excess water in a colander.
- Divide the dough into 8 portions, roll out the dough to about 12-13 cm diameter circles, and fill 4 portions with the kuromame and the other 4 portions with sweet potato.
- Pair with 1 kuromame and 1 sweet potato filled dough, and let it rise at 35C for 60 minutes.
- Bake for 13-16 minutes at 220C in an electric oven or for about 12 minutes at 190C in a gas oven.
- Let sit on a cooling rack.
- Enjoy!
