Step 1
1. The most important thing in these buns is the filling. The poppy seeds need to be prepared in advance. To do this, place them in a sieve, pour boiling water over them, and let them steep over a water bath for about 10 minutes. After that, transfer the sieve to a separate deep container to allow excess liquid to drain off.

2. Then add the sugar and butter, and mix thoroughly. The butter and sugar should melt, so it's best to mix these ingredients while the poppy seeds are still hot.
