Come with me!
And to make the dough for the sweet bread, guys, I'm going to put here, 600 ml of milk at room temperature
environment, 200g of refined sugar, 20g of salt, here it is, 3 eggs, I'm also going to
Add vanilla essence, 1 tablespoon, and 10g of dry biological yeast.
It's important to let the yeast hydrate for about 1 to 2 minutes, okay?
And then dissolve, okay?
So that your dough has no lumps.
Right after, I'll add the wheat flour, always gradually, okay?
For this recipe, folks, I used 1.3 kg of wheat flour, but the wheat flours,
They differ in humidity, right?
Some people need more fluids, others need less.
And if the situation calls for it, if you need to add a little more milk to the recipe, to
May your dough stay soft—do this, okay?
The same thing happens before you finish this amount of flour, if it already reaches a soft point
Knead it as much as you can, then stop adding flour.
It's very important to pay attention to this detail, okay?
I'm putting the flour here now, and then I'll start kneading, okay, everyone?
That's when I tell the truth, for those who work with their hands, right?
It's about 10 to 15 minutes of just rubbing, doesn't need to be direct, okay?
15 minutes straight, okay?
You can stir a bit here, cover the container, and if you need to do anything else,
Turn back, but always set the timer there—about 10 to 15 minutes, you know
sowing
This is going to leave you with the dough, with about one gluten, okay?
A point, approximately a point of veil, is that okay?
Oh, after mixing it here, I'll put it on the counter, which will make things easier for me, okay?
Knead this dough, and there you go—this is the motion, for those of you who haven't kneaded yet
Mass, this is the movement you have to make, okay?
Keep gathering, don't fall, everyone, into the temptation of putting wheat until it slips from your hands,
Hi?
If possible, leave it sticking a little, okay?
Because it's a dough you're going to roll, you leave it.
Mix the dough; it's nicely mixed, then I come with 100 grams of margarine and I'll...
add mass.
Ah, why is that?
Guys, margarine seals the grains, so when you put it in at the beginning, the dough
doesn't hydrate perfectly, so this is the technique for you to make a really good dough
hydrated, and then you'll get an excellent result, okay?
Now I'm going to knead this dough for the amount of time I told you, and I'll show it to you right after.
Hi?
An amount, right?
A secret to achieving your perfect dream is this dough right here—don't let it go.
She's resting to work later, right?
I like...
I just finished grating her; I'm going to cut her now.
Here I cut with 80 grams, okay?
Bakery-sized dream.
I'm going to knead all this dough, then place it on a surface dusted with flour.
Use wheat flour or put parchment paper, okay?
And place it on top of the parchment paper, which will make it easier to remove later.
so that it has fermented, so you can be frying those dreams there, right?
So you already have to think about all of this.
If you place it directly into a container, it will stick; when you pull it, it will come off.
Gonna fade, huh?
Oh, I'm weighing all these dreams here, and I'm already getting overwhelmed, you know?
To achieve higher quality in your dream, the ideal is for you to pass this dough
As soon as it blew in the cylinder, right?
I'm showing you manually because sometimes when we start, we don't have a cylinder.
Hi?
So this is the process.
But if you have a cylinder and a crabapple tree, you'll carry out the process on both the crabapple tree and the cylinder.
and I'll leave it, okay, there's a note on the video screen indicating maceira and cylinder for
Who's just starting.
Hey, I just finished modeling, you know?
Make the little ball.
I'll put it in my baking tray, and the ideal place is a sheltered spot, without any drafts, right?
Until it rises, almost doubling in volume.
Why almost?
If it ferments too much, it won't have enough support for you to pick it up and place it down.
Fry it, huh?
Then it has to be a time before that.
Here, everyone, I'm showing you the cream I use—pastry cream, right?
On the back of this cream, you'll find the entire recipe and all the quantities you need to make it, okay?
I'm making almost an entire packet of pastry cream here.
It's easy.
Poured the milk.
When the milk starts to want to boil, you'll add the cream; I showed the step-by-step process
Ali, turn down the heat so it doesn't burn, and then stir it like a porridge, okay?
He already has sugar, vanilla flavoring, he has everything.
It's a professional bakery cream, okay?
And it's very easy to buy in the markets.
The ideal, you made this cream, you'll let it cool down because when it comes time to whip the dreams,
It has to be at most lukewarm, right?
It can't be too hot, or else it'll burn your hand on the piping bag, okay?
So, as soon as the cream sets, to let it cool down, you have to take a plastic bag,
Hi?
And put it in contact with the cream to cool it down, so it doesn't form a hard film, okay?
You, in this case, if it happens, you'll have to remove it, so you end up
Losing the cream, the amount of cream, right?
So, by placing this plastic in contact with the cream, put it on, set it aside to cool down.
Hey, when it's time to use it, just peel off the plastic, okay?
That he'll be ready for you to use all of it, okay?
Here, oh, my dream, folks, has already reached the point, oh, this is the intermediate point,
Who grows more?
Grows.
But he'll grow in oil, right?
Oil temperature between 50 and 60 degrees for frying the doughnuts, okay, everyone?
Moderate oil, right?
You're going to put it, oh, notice, it has to, oh, even when handling it carefully, it crumples.
Just a little bit, but it's fine, okay?
That's the tip, okay?
Hand real light, huh?
Just to fit it in the bottom part and lift the dream, then you'll slowly fry him.
So that it doesn't stay raw in the middle, right?
That also happens to those who are just starting to fry dreams, right?
Moderate oil, fry for about one and a half to two minutes, yes, frying.
That's why the idea is for you to use a large pot, one that can hold several dreams.
You don't waste time, right?
Putting five to six or even one more container is, with space for you to place several
Dreams to fry once and for all.
And here, folks, I've already fried the dreams, rolled them in cold sugar or powdered sugar,
born, which you can also find in the big markets, okay?
Well, and now, oh, the process, after I fixed him all up, I just keep cutting it
The cavity where I'll put the creams, and then I'll cream them, right?
I have three queues here of dreams.

The type of cream too, the chocolate one sells very well, right?
Here's your variation.
So, you're going out with a board like this, guys, you can pull out three from there
four thousand reais working, selling the dream every single day.
