To make the tangzhong is very easy. You can use 100ml of water pour into a pan, add 20gm of bread flour & make sure flour mix well into water. Put pan over low heat, stir continuously until you can see traces on the tangzhong made by the utensil you use(I use spoon to stir), it's ready. Remove the tangzhong from the pan into a bowl & cover the surface with clinging film (make sure the film touches the tangzhong surface) to prevent a layer forming on the tangzhong. Leave it to cool before use. I normally make it at night, cool & keep in fridge for use the next day.

After making the tangzhong, let it cool and kp it in fridge. So next day when I use my BM, i just add in the tangzhong with my normal bread ingredients and that's it???? Do I miss anything, any steps? Many thanks!

Technically yes you r right but before you add the tangzhong, you must know how much to add. First you must get a recipe for the tangzhong bread. I can't post the recipe here as it's not mine, but I can post the blog here I think.
Go to this blog happyhomebaking.blogspot.com/2012/02/blog-post.html for a tangzhong raisin loaf.
Hope you can make a nice, soft loaf with your bread machine. Do post & share with us ok? :love:[/quote]

Sure, many thanks! Hope to hv gd news soon!

All along i am using Tang Zhou / water roux but recently found this recipe and i can said this is one of the best sweet bun recipe i have. It is using direct method.



Pumpkin Bread
Bread Flour 250g
Brown Sugar 50g
Salt ½ tsp
Milk powder 1tbsp
... Yeast 1tsp
Egg 1
Milk 20g
Whipping cream 50g (I used milk)
Pumpkin purees 60g (I used 70g)
Butter 30g

Recipe by Ms Elly Pu

o 做法： 全部材料搓好后待发酵45-60分钟直双倍大，取出分割成你要的等份，滚圆休面团10分钟。
取出做出造型或包入馅料。由于面包体还会再发大，所以面包和面包之间要有距离。
最后发酵45-60分钟，预热烤箱，进烤箱前扫上蛋液，180度烤18-20分钟即可

Yes, just steam it without adding sugar. Be careful the water level in the pumpkin, if the dough is sticky then reduce the milk/water.

It is soft till next day. My family are bread lover and normally the bread won \"last\" for 2 days. I myself can eat a lots for breadfast, lunch and dinner. Normally i will bake around 15 sweet buns (64g each). Around 450g - 500g bread flour.

hi mummies , im new to bread making. Just got a cosway empress breadmaker. Must i follow the sequence of the ingredients listed in the breadmaker manual step by step?


i saw some nice recipes elsewhere… but the the sequence of putting in the ingredients are different. Should I follow the sequence in the breadmachine manual or from the recipe which i want to make?

This is what i made last night. Sausage & Cheese Buns

The recipe supposed to yield 12buns. I made 12 buns.. but the skin is too thin. Roughly how big should one dough ball be or how many grams?

And another silly question :slapshead:
when i proof the dough must i cover it? hehe!! coz i dont seem to have a big pan enough to cover the dough..

Verdict: Skin too thin. Overall ok but the next day a bit dry.
Anyone has recipe for Ham & cheese bun?

Hi twins closet

Your bun looks very good and yummy! normally i bake about 15 buns, each 63-65g. But sometimes i will bake some mini bun (45g) to the children.

Yup! u have to cover the dough, normally i am using a wet towel.

I have fews sweet bun recipe, u can use any sweet bun recipe to bake ham and cheese bun.

Happy baking —
