  • For the ferment: Place the yeast in a bowl with warm milk, dissolve it well, and add sugar and flour. Cover the bowl and let it rise for 10 minutes. This will help the bread become fluffier.
  • In a bowl, put 1 cup of warm milk, 100 g of vegetable shortening, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 5 cups of reinforced flour 0000. Mix until you obtain a homogeneous dough.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl and knead it gently, avoiding extracting all the air. Roll it out thinly with a rolling pin, spreading it until it forms a rectangle. Brush the dough with melted butter and sprinkle a little sugar, distributing the pre-mixed filling over the entire surface.
  • Gradually add the sifted flour with salt and finally incorporate the already risen yeast. Form a ball and knead it, using a little flour, until you achieve a tender dough that does not stick to the countertop.
  • Roll the dough, pressing the edges and shaping it into a roll. Join the ends to form a ring. Place it on a greased baking tray, cover it with a dry cloth, and let it double in volume in a warm place.
  • Put it in a large bowl and let it rise in a warm place, covering it with a cloth until it nearly doubles in volume.
  • Once risen, make some cuts with scissors, brush with beaten egg, and place in a hot oven (200º) for 8 minutes, then reduce the temperature (170°C to 180°C) to finish cooking evenly. Approximate cooking time is 40 minutes, depending on each oven.
