You are going to start by making the Tangzhong

Next Get your yeast ready

Yeast: 1/2 cup(120g) whole milk warmed to 95f (30c) and 1 tablespoon (9g) instant yeast, mix together lighty and let sit for 8 minutes.

Now for the dough

Dough: 2.5 cups (320g) Bread flour, 1 teaspoon (7g) fine sea salt, 2.5 tablespoons (35g) granulated sugar, 1 whole egg, 1 egg yolk, 3 tablespoons (42g) unsalted softened butter

Put flour, salt and sugar whisked together in stand mixer with dough hook, add yeast mixture and mix on low, add tangzhong and continue mixing on low, once mixed add remaining ingredients, save the butter for last, once everything is incorporated slowly add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time, then mix on medium low speed for 5-8 minutes
