Pandesal

Recipe

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups bread flour

1/2 cup sugar

5 tblsp butter, melted

1 1/4 fresh milk, warm

1 tblsp instant yeast

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 egg

1 tbsp cooking oil ( I used olive oil)

bread crumbs

Mix the yeast, a tablespoon of sugar, and warm milk. Stir until dissolved and set aside. The mixture is ready once the bubbles form.

In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients. (bread flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt). Make sure they are well blended.

Place the egg, butter and milk-sugar-yeast mixture into the bowl to form a dough. Take the dough and knead it on flour-sprinkled flat surface.

Once the texture is smooth, place it again in the bowl and let it sit for 30-45 minutes as the yeast do its work.

The dough size will be doubled by-now. Cut it into 4 long pieces, then into smaller chunks.

Roll the dough chunks in bread crumbs and place them in a baking tray. Set aside for 10-15 minutes before putting in the oven.

During this time, pre-heat the oven to 375 fahrenheit.

Bake the dough for 15 minutes. Serve the bread hot with your favorite spread or filling.

WILL: Abbey is so eager to make this bread. Pandesal is the most commonly bread you can see in every Filipinos' dining table every breakfast. This is so great to teamed up with coffee, but for me this is best with milky white champorado. Hehe. 
      When Abbey baked these, the aroma filled our house. So much to take everyone tasted his creation. Haha. 
     That was my third sickly day when he baked this one. I am so sick that even imagining a food to intake makes me dizzy. But when I smelled this one, i took all the effort to eat up some. The taste? Unexpected. This is the taste I am looking for in a pandesal. Firm and yet soft inside. Thanks baby. Magtatayo na tayo ng bakery. Hehe. 

4 Fingers Crispy Chicken

ABBEY: They boast their crispy chicken wings. Unfortunately we didn't get the chance to taste them. But we were offered other choices from their menu. We got their chicken burger and their chicken tenders. It is seasoned with garlic soy sauce, and the chicken is very crispy. The meal comes with a drink and fries. Our meal each starts from 10sgd.

Chicken Chop 

Chicken Burger

WILL: Four fingers is not enough to use upon eating their sumptuous chicken. For now, this is the best fried chicken for me here in Singapore. The texture is impressive, very tender. The taste is so good. I just can get over the bursting of flavors inside my mouth. 
      Whenever you go to Orchard, try to drop by here. Very recommendable.
