Ingredients You’ll Need:

For the Tuna Corn Salad

• 1 can (5 oz) tuna, drained

• 1/4 cup sweet corn kernels (canned or frozen)

• 1/4 tbsp mayonnaise

• Sugar, Salt, and pepper, to taste

For the Dough

• All-purpose flour
• Salt
• Sugar
• Egg
• Active Dry Yeast
• Water
• Milk
• Butter

For the Tangzhong

• 2 tbsp All Purpose Flour
• 1/4 cup Water

Step 1: Prepare the Salad

In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, corn, chopped onion, mayonnaise, sour cream (if using), and lemon juice. Mix well until creamy and well blended. Add salt and pepper to your preference. You can also sprinkle a bit of paprika or chili flakes for a slight kick.

Step 3:Make the Tangzhong Mixture.

• Place the flour and cold water into a saucepan. Mix until the flour is completely dissolved. Turn the heat to low and continuously stir until a paste forms. Transfer the mixture to a container and let it cool down. You can prepare this ahead of time to save time. Set Aside.

Step 4: Make the Dough

• Place the milk and water in a microwave-safe bowl and heat the water for 30 seconds. Add the yeast and mix until well combined. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, or until the yeast has bloomed.
• Place the flour, sugar, and salt in the electric mixing bowl. Mix using a wire whisk to combine.
• Add the egg, prepared dry yeast mixture, and the Tao zhong. Mix for 8 to 10 minutes on medium speed. Occasionally, scrape the sides of the bowl to combine the dough.
• Add the room temperature butter. Continue mixing until the dough is pliable. You can perform the window test by pulling a small amount of the dough and spreading it. If the dough is transparent, it’s ready. This process takes about 11 to 14 minutes.
• When ready, form the dough into a ball. Spray your bowl with non-stick cooking spray and return the dough to the bowl. Cover the dough with a cloth or plastic and let it sit in a warm place for 1 hour.
• Transfer the dough to a floured surface and divide it into 12 pieces. And form into a ball.
• Make a dent in the middle by pressing it with your thumb or by using a cup. Top it with the Corn Tuna Salad—brush sides with egg. Add sugar or condensed milk on top.

Step 5: Bake

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the bread in the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes.
