Ingredients For the Starter: 2 cups lukewarm water 2 teaspoons granulated sugar 1 and 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast 1/4 cup all-purpose flour Remaining Dough Ingredients: 4 cups (590g) all-purpose flour 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/4 cup olive oil For the Filling: 6 ounces (170g) feta cheese 4 ounces (113g) shredded Kefalograviera or Gouda cheese 1/4 finely chopped parsley For the Topping: 2 ounces (57g) salted butter 2 tablespoons heavy cream 1 tablespoon sesame seeds Fine semolina for the pan (optional) Instructions Make the Dough: In the bowl of a tabletop mixer that has been fitted with the dough hook attachment add all of the Starter ingredients. Set aside for 8 minutes to make sure that the yeast is good. A puffy cloud will form at the top of the mixture. If that does not happen, discard the mixture and use a fresh container of yeast or the dough will not rise. Combine the flour and salt together in a large bowl and whisk together. Add the flour mixture to the yeast mixture along with the oil. Knead on low speed for 10 minutes. Transfer the dough to a well oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap or with a kitchen towel. Set aside until doubled in volume. Prepare the Cheese Filling: Combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl and toss together. Make the Buns: Divide the dough into 12 balls. Press each ball out into a flat circle. About 4-inches. Place a tablespoon of the cheese filling in the center. Bring the edges together over the filling and pinch them together to seal. Roll gently into a ball and continue forming the buns. Line 2 baking trays with parchment and sprinkle a thin layer of semolina over the paper. Place 6 buns on each prepared pan. Loosely cover the buns with a towel and set aside for 30 minutes to rest. They will puff up but not double in size. Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C. Combine the melted butter and cream together in a small bowl and brush the buns all around with the mixture. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Bake each tray on the center rack for 25 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow the buns to rest at room temperature for 10-15 minutes and then serve. Kali Orexi! Notes The buns can also be made without the cheese and stuffed with veggies, meat filling, or without any filling at all.Music Used: Greek Sun Time (With Intro) ITEM ID: 66582698 By: tonyanthony Its All Greek ITEM ID: 84456733 By: LowNotes Official Facebook Page:   / dimitrasdishes   Instagram:   / dimitras.dishes   Pinterest:   / dimitrasdis0637   Twitter:   / dimitrasdishes
