the warm water, warm milk, sugar, and dry yeast. Stir until the yeast dissolves. Add 3 tablespoons of wheat flour and whisk until smooth. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let it rest for about 15 minutes.
This step helps the yeast activate, creating a bubbly and foamy mixture that gives your bread extra lift.
Step 2: Add Remaining Ingredients
Once the mixture is frothy, add the salt, oil (or butter), and most of the remaining flour. Mix until a dough begins to form.
