Recipe (32 buns):
Ingredients:
1g saffron
1 tsp caster sugar
50g fresh yeast or 14g dry yeast
500g milk
180g caster sugar
1 teaspoon salt
200 g softened butter

How to:
Grind the saffron with the sugar. Warm the milk to 37 degrees Celsius or 98 degrees Fahrenheit and add the saffron.
Crumble the yeast in a bowl and add the milk.
3. Add sugar, salt, butter and almost all the flour. Work the dough for 10 minutes.
5. Cover the bowl and leave it to rise for 30 minutes.
Knead the dough lightly and divide it into 32 equal parts. Roll out each part and roll together as shown in the video.
7. Place the buns on a sheet of baking paper and cover with a cloth and leave it to rise for 30 minutes.
8. Brush the buns with egg wash and put in raisins.
9. Bake the buns at 220 Celsius or 430 Fahrenheit for 7-8 minutes.
10. Let the buns cool on a wire rack under a cloth.

Yeast: If you use to bake bread or buns, use the same amount yeast that you would use for two cups of liquid. If you use dry yeast, you should heat the milk a couple of degrees warmer, 40 Celsius or 104 Fahrenheit.
