Ingredients :
4 eggs
50g of melted butter
400ml of warm milk
250g of flour

A pinch of salt

Preparation:

In a large bowl, pour 30ml of lukewarm water and add the yeast, let it rest for 5 minutes. Pour half of the warm milk over it and mix.

Add the flour and mix with a fork until the mixture is smooth.

Filter the bowl and let rest for about 1 hour at room temperature.

Add the remaining milk to the dough.

Separate the whites from the yolks, beat the whites until stiff and set aside.

Mix 3 yolks with the dough, add salt and melted butter until smooth. Gently fold in the egg whites.
