Wholemeal Black Sesame Swirl Bread (sponge dough 中种法)
This recipe uses the basic dough from Soft Wholemeal Multigrain Bread (sponge dough method 中种). The resulting bread will be soft up to days and has a nice spongy bite. It is also really healthy. But the dough is super wet and might not be so suitable for a beginner to try. The multiple steps…
Condensed Milk Loaf
The dough for this bread will be wet, but not so sticky because of the higher butter content. Be patient when handling, and try not to add flour along the way, other than to lightly dust the surface. You will be rewarded with a very soft, fluffy and sweet bread. See how the highly elastic…
Pandan Kaya Swiss Roll
For this recipe, I used my own home-made Pandan concentrate extract. I puréed the leaves, added water and squeeze out Pandan juice. After that, I let the juice stand overnight in the fridge and only use the bottom thick layer. If you find this too troublesome, you can replace with Pandan paste or Essence. I…
Pandan Chiffon (cooked dough 烫面)
This cooked dough method yields a soft luscious cake, that makes you feel like you are biting on air. The crumbs are delicate and fine, because the flour has been cooked by the heated oil and unable to form more gluten. If done correctly, it can be easier than the usual recipe because there is…

Gula Melaka Chiffon
One of my family’s favourites. Have baked it so many times, I have memorised the recipe by heart. Just remember to get the right Gula Melaka or else don’t make it. A good Gula Melaka must be dark, and relatively soft enough to scrape and slice. If you see a light one and it turns…
