Critical Success Points

  • Grind the spices (fennel, anise, milo) finely to avoid lumps.
  • Respect the milk temperature (37 °C) to properly activate the yeast.
  • Let the dough rise until it doubles in volume before shaping.
  • Brush the loaves before baking to obtain a beautiful golden colour.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful with hot milk to avoid burns.
  • Handle the oven with protective gloves.
  • Consume raw eggs only if you are sure they are fresh.
