Hi Vivien, the first photo already looked like the dough is not quite right. Looks like it’s too wet. Bread dough, like pasta dough, should not be sticky when you have finished kneading. You can measure as accurately from recipes, but my guess is that what needs to also be taken into account is the humidity in the air, etc. If your dough is wet, then the best thing to do is to add more flour. Better to add slightly less water than what the recipe calls for from the start and see how it comes together first. Cheers, K8

yes the centre is gummy and stick to my teeth, but if i do not knead in the butter early(say 1 or 2 minutes into kneading), the dough doesn’t absorb butter well after the dough was kneaded till springy(about 5 mins)

thanks for your tips.
