This recipe is gotten from 爱与恨老师. It makes an in-between bread, soft yet with a bite. It looks lovely yet very easy and effortless to make. Because moisture is low, dough is easy to handle. I’ve added wholemeal flour, chocolate chip, fruits and seeds to the recipe and it is still very soft. Recipe (Adapted…

Assorted Buns with Poolish Starter (Bacon and Cheese Fishbone, Pull-Apart Coconut)
Thanks to my dear baking friend, Irene for sharing this Poolish starter bread recipe with me. I made slight adjustments. The bread is very tasty with the long proof and very soft with a spongy bite. The dough itself is very smooth and elastic and pulled a nice pane. I made assorted buns here, custard…

Nigella’s Chocolate Chip Muffin
Very easy and very delicious. Just follow the recipe and don’t omit anything. Just a word of caution, don’t use heavily waxed muffin cups that will cause lopsided muffins. See the picture below, all baked using the same recipe. Muffins on the left are lopsided and flat top too! Another tip is to use double…

Pineapple Jam/ Filling

Butter Cake (Mrs Ng SK)
I love eating butter and butter cakes. I think it’s because my Mom used to cut them into thick slices, poke each with a toothpick and serve them as snacks to us kids. This recipe is iconic and rightfully so. The smell when freshly baked is heavenly, and the texture is soft and spongy. Anyway,…
