Yeast dough for buns
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. Enriched dough can be made using either dry or fresh yeast. Although the first option is faster and simpler, such dough is better suited for pies and pizza. Fresh yeast, on the other hand, produces a very light and airy dough, perfect for buns. For making yeast dough for buns, I recommend using butter instead of margarine or spread, as well as homemade milk and fresh compressed yeast. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.

Dissolve fresh yeast in half a cup of warm milk (or water). Add a teaspoon of sugar, stir, and place in a warm spot to rise. If a foamy layer with bubbles forms on the surface, the yeast is ready to use in your recipe.

Step 5
The most important thing is to knead the dough thoroughly. The dough should turn out light and airy, and it should not stick to your hands. Place the dough in a large bowl or pot in a warm spot (make sure there are no drafts). When the dough rises, it will double in size. Punch it down, and then you can start baking the buns.
