ksi:

How much cheese did you put? Best to keep to prescribed amount.


Yeast no need to put in fridge, it becomes moist. Just keep it in a dry container. Yeast cannot touch water.

Cheese bread is harder to make, I also have not gotten the crust right even though the bread is ok so I still need to continue my experiment.
I don't know how to describe the banana used, later I buy and post the banana bunch. Actually I am not sure if I can get from super market.
Ladies, I came back here with 10 whopping pages to read, all of you never fail to amaze me.

I should hv posted this last night. Maid, make banana cake or bread cannot use del Monte, that is only good for direct consumption.

I guess I have to make a plain loaf to test out my yeast then. See if by putting it in the fridge somehow made it ineffective.

For the bananas, I used to make banana cakes and my experience has been that del monte's not good for cakes. You need the small ones. Can't remember what they're called. The smaller sweeter ones. Must be over ripe.

I know what sort of bananas that you are talking about. I use that for my banana cakes too, but just that this morning, I was too lazy to go to the market, so asked husband to get some from the shop downstairs and man being man, just grabbed whatever he found at shop and also don't really blame him as I think the variety carried by the shop is also quite limited. Blame it on my laziness, I should have gone to the market to get it.

Yes, agree with ksi and jtoh that should not use the DelMonte range. As jtoh mentioned, it's the smaller variety - the ones that is used for goreng pisang.

Anyway, was at Cold Storage and all the bananas look under-ripe or in a just ripe state. Cd not find any black spotted pigmented bananas. So in the end, bought a just ripe variety and waiting for it to over-ripen :roll:

Yup, those POLKA-DOTTED PIGMENTED ones, but must make sure there are no occupants inside, and by occupants, I mean those wriggly, wriggly ones that love those POLKA-DOTTED PIGMENTED bananas! :!:

Cold Storage sells nice ones, not over-ripe ones. Guess not good for display if they show black spotted ones. :lol: What I used to do was buy a big bunch for consumption. Then those which we don't finish in time and get over-ripe we make cake.

Ya, those POLKA-DOTTED PIGMENTED ones cannot be found at NTUC or Cold Storage, they can only be found at the market.
