In a bowl, mix the milk, sugar, and instant yeast. Stir well with a spatula. Add the flour and salt, then mix until a dough forms. Cover with a lid and let it rest for 20 minutes.
-
Knead the dough thoroughly with the unsalted butter until smooth. Cover again and let it rise for 1 hour.
-
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round ball. Lightly grease a pan with unsalted butter and sprinkle sesame seeds at the bottom. Place the dough balls in the pan, cover, and let them rest for another hour.
-
Place the pan over low heat and steam with the lid on for 10 minutes. Brush the dough with unsalted butter, then flip and steam for another 10 minutes. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, and serve.
