Directions

  1. Heat the oil with lemon zest (without the white, bitter part) for a few minutes, then let it cool and remove the zest.
  2. Heat the must to approximately 38 °C, without further heating to avoid killing the yeast, and then add the yeast.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the juice and the slightly warmed oil, then the 5 eggs, lightly beaten, and the sugar.
  4. Gradually add the flour, keeping 200-300g aside for hand kneading. ≈ 10 min
  5. Form a ball, place it in a lightly floured salad bowl, cover, and let it rise for at least 2 hours in a warm place.
  6. Divide the dough into balls of about 80g each, and place them on baking sheets lined with parchment paper, making sure they don’t touch. Cover and let rise for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Coat the buns with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.
  8. Bake them in batches, for about 15 minutes each, until they are golden brown. Let them cool completely before serving.
