Once the process has been completed, add mild oil and continue ''stir 2'' until beeps will signal. close the lid gently.

3) Press the MENU button again until you reach ''ferment''. The bread maker will allow your dough to rise for 30 minutes or until beep to signal and then you take it out of the machine.

4) Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, punch down the dough, and divide into 16 pieces or as many as you desire. shape into balls, then roll out each ball into a oval shaped. roll up the dough and cut in half like a rose in shaped.

5) Rise in the warm oven for 30 minutes. Bake in no preheated oven 150°C, until the buns are golden brown, about 18 minutes. (Baking time depends on the size and shape of the bread being baked).

2) Store a bread in an airtight, re-sealed bag or airtight container and keep fresh for 2 days.
3) The best way to store bread for freshness is in the freezer for about 1 month. after defrost the bread, reheating and serve, tastes like fresh-baked.
4) If it's a winter day, the common problem is that dough won't rise. Ideal rise temperatures are between 35°C-37°C. Using a warm oven by turn your oven on and off or with boiled water on the underneath to help your dough rise perfectly.
5) If you don't own a bread maker, it can be made by hand, knead until the dough smooth and rise in the warm oven for 1 hour and continue the steps.
