Ingredients

Main Ingredients (6 donuts)

  • Bread Flour 100g
  • Cake Flour 50g
  • Salt 2g
  • Sugar 15g
  • Instant Yeast 2g
  • Egg 20g
  • Milk 80g
  • Butter 20g
  • Cake Flour 60g
  • Rice Flour 20g (can be substituted with Potato Starch)
  • Baking Powder 1/2 tsp
  • Water 120ml
  • Sesame Oil 2 tbsp (can be substituted with Vegetable Oil)

Seasonings

  • [A] Powdered Sugar 1 tbsp
  • [A] Milk Powder 1 tsp

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine 100g Bread Flour and 50g Cake Flour and mix.
  2. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add 2g Salt and 20g Egg to one side.
  3. On the other side, add 15g Sugar and 2g Instant Yeast. Pour 80g Milk (lukewarm to the touch) over the yeast and mix with chopsticks.
  4. Once the ingredients are partially combined, knead the dough until it comes together.
  5. Once smooth, add 20g Butter and knead it into the dough.
  6. Knead for about 10-15 minutes until the dough is smooth and can form a thin membrane. Shape into a ball, place in the bowl with the seam side down.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and let it undergo its first fermentation in a warm place for 1 hour.
  8. Once the dough has doubled in size after the first fermentation, punch down the air.
  9. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions, shape them into balls, place them seam-side down, cover with plastic wrap, and let them rest for 10 minutes.
  10. Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Gently press down on each dough ball to flatten it.
  11. Use chopsticks to create a hole in the center of the dough, then spread it with your fingers to form a ring shape. (Key Tip!) Make the center hole slightly larger than you think, as it will puff up.
  12. Arrange the dough rings (about 5-8cm in diameter) on a baking sheet lightly dusted with flour or lined with parchment paper.
  13. Cover with plastic wrap and let it undergo its second fermentation for 20-30 minutes.
  14. While the dough is proofing, prepare the batter. In a bowl, combine 60g Cake Flour, 20g Rice Flour (can be substituted with Potato Starch), and 1/2 tsp Baking Powder and mix.
  15. Gradually add 120ml Water to the dry ingredients in about three additions, mixing to avoid lumps.
  16. Add 2 tbsp Sesame Oil (can be substituted with Vegetable Oil) and mix. (Key Tip!) The batter should have a thin consistency, similar to tempura batter.
  17. Heat the oil to about 170°C (338°F). The oil is ready when bubbles immediately form around chopsticks inserted into it.
  18. Dip the proofed dough into the batter and carefully place it into the hot oil.
  19. After about 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, when the batter starts to turn golden brown, flip the donut.
  20. After flipping, fry for another 1 minute and 30 seconds until both sides are golden brown. Remove from the oil.
  21. Fry the remaining donuts in the same way.
  22. Let the fried donuts cool down slightly.
  23. Prepare the cooled donuts. In a separate bowl, combine 1 tbsp Powdered Sugar and 1 tsp Milk Powder and mix.
  24. Arrange the donuts on a wire rack. Sprinkle the milk sugar mixture evenly over the donuts.
