[@harveyh3696]

I like the hand-mix of ingredients before turning on the mixer to ensure contents are well distributed. Piece of mind that the mix will be thoroughly blended.

[@jench2106]

Tried it yesterday, came out great, thanks for the detailed instructions!

[@archermark29]

I've been doing some quarantine baking lately and I tried this bread, wow it came out great and I don't bake often so I was very proud, I substituted about 3/4 cups of the bread flour for whole wheat and it still came out good, I baked mine into pull apart loaves instead of rolls, I'll definitely be trying this recipe again, thanks Pai

[@yohanessantosa]

if i don't have evaporated milk,can i substitute it with fresh milk?

[@Rollwithit699]

I'm new to this channel, and really like this little lady's personality so much. She's knowledgeable and a joy to watch as well. Makes me smile! Cracked me up that described the dough was smooth "like a baby's bottom," since I've said that about dough many times.

[@ellecaledonia348]

Thanks for this recipe Pai! I made this last week and it was so delicious! The recipe was easy to follow too. One thing for those of you who plan to make it, this is a bread that should be consumed immediately. (I don't think it'll be a problem!) We could have eaten all the buns in one sitting, but we didn't want to be voracious eaters. Reluctantly, we decided to save a few pieces for the following day but alas, the bread wasn't as soft and fluffy anymore. Next time, we'll just eat the whole thing in one sitting :-).

[@worthy1959]

You are such a happy person ❤️ love to watch you. Will try these buns out.

[@suesmith3914]

ไพลิน you are so adorable making soft buns

[@fionang9578]

Pai: girl, i love your video! It's my first time watching your video and you crack me up! you have such a fun personality! Honestly, I get so bored when i watch other you tubers, they make me fall asleep or I tend to fast forward, but girl, I watched your video from the beginning to the end. I also love how you explain why you do certain things, like letting the dough to set for a while before mixing other ingredients. It helps to know the purpose of the procedure. Keep up the good work!!

[@Miss_cin2]

I'll try this 💖💖 thanks for sharing the recepies

[@irischia2688]

Hi Pailin, I had just made these buns, it turn out super soft and tasty. Thank you for sharing this marvellous recipe. I really 💖 it.

i tried a few other milk bread recipes and all failed. yours turned out great!! i'm so happy! really appreciate the explanations behind the methods too. thank you!! 🤩🤩

[@dcwatashi]

Which other recipes did you try? Because this is not traditional so I’m curious

[@sylvwu26]

@@dcwatashi sorry, i can't remember. once i get a bad result, i remove the video from my list. not sure what you mean by not traditional. the other videos also have similar methods

[@dcwatashi]

@@sylvwu26 The traditional recipe doesn’t use sweetened condensed milk and they also refrigerate the rue and then bring it to room temperature whereas you just added it all at once. Now I have followed some of your recipes and they were awesome but it was your own native recipes if that makes any sense

[@sylvwu26]

@@dcwatashi her recipe doesn't use condensed milk. not sure what you meant by you have followed some of my recipes coz i never posted any recipes online. i live in australia, so i don't really know if it's traditional or not. turned out really well though 😊
