👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of the lukewarm water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, salt, and oil (or butter). Heat gently until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is lukewarm. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the remaining 1 cup of lukewarm water with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the flour. Add the lukewarm water mixture and the activated yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface for about 7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours, or until doubled in size.

3. 3

   Punch down the dough and divide it into 20 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball between your palms.

4. 4

   Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, with sides touching. Cover and let them rise for another 1-1.5 hours until nearly doubled.

5. 5

   Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bobalki for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned.

6. 6

   While the bobalki are baking, gently heat the honey in a small pot. Stir in the ground poppy seeds. Simmer for a minute, then remove from heat.

7. 7

   Once the bobalki are baked and slightly cooled, break them apart if they've stuck together during baking. Place them in a large bowl. Pour the warm honey-poppy seed mixture over the bobalki and toss gently to coat. Serve warm.
