Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 190°C, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
- Heads:
Divide the dough into eight 56g (2 oz) pieces. Pinch off a 2cm (0.8 in) piece from each piece and set aside. Form each large piece of dough into a tight ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 5cm (2 inches) apart. - Combine the milk, egg, and salt in a small bowl. Make a tiny slit in the back of each dough ball, close to the base, and pull it out to form a tail. Working with one ball at a time, brush it on all sides with the egg mixture. Cut one of the reserved pieces of dough in half. Flatten it to form a snout. Attach it to the side opposite the tail.
- Use a toothpick to pierce the nostrils (leave the toothpicks in while the buns bake). Form two triangular ears from the other half of the dough. Press them onto the pig's head; insert a toothpick into the back of each ear to hold it in place while baking. Press two sesame seed eyes between the nose and ears.
- Bake until the buns are puffed and golden brown, 15-18 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Remove the toothpicks. Serve the buns warm or at room temperature.
