   Paso 1. Activate the yeast

   Sift the flour into a bowl and press a well into the center. Add the yeast, 1 tsp of the sugar, and a little of the lukewarm milk into the well. Stir lightly, cover, and let rest a few minutes until the yeast foams and activates.

   Fresh yeast can be used instead: 20 g fresh yeast.
