Moscow Bun - Useful Tips and Tricks
• Egg for lubricating buns does not always lie flat. And the reason is often in protein. It should be well stirred until smooth. Or use only the yolk, diluted with a spoon of water.
• No brush for greasing buns? You can use a cotton rag. It is necessary to roll it in several layers and cut the edge with scissors so as to imitate the nap.
• Always cover the dough with a towel so that no crust forms on it. It will interfere with the normal operation of the yeast, and the buns will be non-uniform, with hard particles in the pulp.
• Buns must rise in a warm room and without drafts, otherwise they dry up, remain small, or they may fall off altogether.
