𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗢 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗘𝗦𝗘 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗣𝗘

I credit this baking obsession to my fellow content creator who always shares the best bread recipes! I started my bread making journey following her incredibly detailed recipes na super beginner friendly! 🍞🥖🫓

𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦:

Tangzhong (Bread Improver)
- 3 Tbsp (30g) Bread Flour
- ½ cup (125 ml) Full Cream Milk

Bread Dough:
- 2 ½ cups (400g) Bread Flour
- 2 Tbsp (20g) Milk Powder
- 1 tsp (5g) Salt
- ⅓ cup (70g) Sugar
- 2 ¼ tsp (6g) Saf-instantYeast
- Tangzhong (from above)
- 1/2 cup (125ml) Full Cream Milk
- 1 Egg
- 30g Butter, softened

Cheese Filling:
- 20 small cheese cubes (Cheddar, Quickmelt, Mozzarella, or Processed Cheese)

Cheesy Streusel Topping:
- ½ cup (113g) Butter, softened
- ½ cup (115g) Sugar
- ½ cup (63g) Powdered Milk (full cream is better)
- 1 cup (165g) Bread Flour
- 1 cup (100g) Grated Cheese (Cheddar)

For Coating:
- ½ cup Evaporated Milk or Full Cream Milk

𝗜𝗡𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦:
1. Make the Tangzhong: In a saucepan, cook bread flour and milk over low heat until thick and paste-like. Remove from heat and let cool.
2. Prepare the dough: In a bowl, combine bread flour, milk powder, salt, sugar, yeast, Tangzhong, milk, and egg until a sticky dough forms. Add butter and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10–12 minutes by hand or on medium-high speed with a mixer.
3. First rise: Cover and let the dough rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
4. Make the streusel: Mix butter, sugar, milk powder, and flour until crumbly. Add grated cheese and mix again, then set aside.
5. Shape and fill: Punch down the dough, divide into 40g pieces (12–16 total), and roll into balls. Rest 10 minutes. Flatten each ball, add 1 cheese cube in the center, seal, and roll smooth again.
6. Coat with streusel: Lightly dip each ball in milk (quick dip only) and roll in streusel until fully coated.
7. Final rise and bake: Arrange on a lined tray with space in between. Cover and let rise for 30–45 minutes until puffy. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown.

𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗦 :

My streusel turned out a bit clumpy (hence the clumps on the toppings) because I combined everything all at once—add the cheese last when the ingredients are already well combined to avoid this.

My favorite quick and easy high-protein bowl! I typically add a bunch of greens for fiber but I ran out so feel free to experiment! 🥗

PS tuna is a great protein source better if fresh but for days when you have to make a quick one, in Springwater talaga but lmk if you also have other recos! 🐟

𝐁𝐨 𝐍𝐞 (𝐕𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐒𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐤)

Full video : https://youtu.be/oToVjtoWc7g

Bo Ne is a fusion of Vietnamese and French cuisines, and it's all about that sizzle. It's surprisingly simple to make, but the flavor is out of this world!

𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬:

• For the Beef:
o 2 boneless beef steaks (sirloin or flank steak works great)
o 1 pack Bo Ne Sauce
o Or if you’re making from scratch (1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp black pepper, a pinch of minced garlic

• For Serving:
o Fresh baguette, sliced
o 1 small onion, sliced
o 2 slices of liver pate (optional, but highly recommended!)
o Cucumbers and tomatoes, sliced (optional)

𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬:

1. Slice the beef into thin strips. In a bowl, mix the steak with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, pepper, and garlic or the marinade and let sit for 15mins.
2. Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil.
3. Add the marinated beef strips to the hot pan and sear quickly, about 1-2 minutes per side. We want a nice brown crust but keep it tender!
4. Transfer the beef to a sizzling plate or directly to a heat-proof plate. Serve it immediately while it's still sizzling, with a side of your fresh baguette slices for dipping and any veggies you like.
