  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 Egg
  • 3/4 cup Water

Frosting

Method
 

    A tangzhong involves whisking together flour and liquid and cooking it over gentle heat, resulting in a paste that transforms even a basic dough into something extraordinary.
  1. Combine 1/3 of the flour with the liquid. Mix until smooth. Cook over medium heat until it forms a pasty dough.
  2. Let yeast bloom in water and sugar mix.
    Add egg to yeast mix.
  3. Mix dry ingredients together. Add wet ingredients.
    Mix until the dough is smooth.
  4. Roll dough to 9x12 rectangle. Spread softened butter over dough.
    Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon over the dough.
  5. Roll up lengthwise. Slice 1 1/2 inch thick slices.
  6. Place on baking tray. Let rise until doubled.
  7. Bake at 350 for 13 minutes. Tops will be barely browned.
Frosting
  1. Mix all ingredients together until fluffy.
    Spread on rolls while they are still hot.
