loaf-ing around

I had forgotten about a quarter loaf of bread I bought a couple of days before and thought of making chocolate bread pudding before the molds kick in. I searched for a suitable recipe that does not require too much igredients as I don't feel like going to the grocery, I came across a ham and cheese bread pudding which I decided to make so I'd have something for breakfast.

Ham and Cheese Bread Pudding
ingredients:
- 4 slices of bread
- 1 egg
- 1 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of cooked cubed ham
- 1/2 cup cubed cheese
- salt and pepper

how to:
- cut the slices of bread into cubes, place in a big bowl and combine with the ham and cheese
- beat the egg and mix in half of the milk.
- pour milk mixture into the bread and mix until moistened, add more milk gradually if needed
- season with salt and pepper
- bake for 15-20 minutes at 200 degrees or until edges are browned and center in spongy



easy breakfast!

whole-y moley wheat bread!!!

 I have been trying to master making bread using whole wheat flour, my first attempt was a complete failure even though I followed the recipe exactly. I don't know where I went wrong but the 'bread' didn't rise even after a couple of hours. I still went n to bake it and though it was edible to texture was not fluffy as shown in the you tube video tutorial but very dry and crumbly - almost like the puto seko of my childhood...  I continued to search for recipes and finally decided on combining methods from 2 recipes - and it was a success! Whole Wheat Bread Loaf: ingredients: - 2 1/2 cup whole wheat flour - 1 cup plus 2 tbsp water - 1 tsp yeast - 2 t tbsp oil (I used olive oil) - 1/4 tsp salt how to: - bloom yeast in lukewarm water about 5-10 mins or until frothy - add half cup of flour, mix until combined and set aside for about 30 mins. The mixture will rise and be frothy - add the rest of the flour and mix just until combined, rest again for 30 mins -  turn the dough ...

beefy buns

Nothing goes well with a big bowl of hot and hearty beef noodle soup than soft and fluffy steamed buns!  This dish reminds me of my childhood fascination of the vibrancy of a busy marketplace. During summer vacation, before going to work, my mom would take us to the market to buy our meals for the day and the corner noodle shop was often than not our main stop. We would order a couple of servings of beef noodles and steamed buns... I would often discreetly watch the people inside the shop - fascinated by the diversity of the patrons coming and going. There are families dinning out for a treat... couples maybe on a date... lone diners and working people like my mom dressed in office uniforms. Our take away package seems to come too quick for me to enjoy my time people watching and making my self dizzy going round and round on the bar stools. With a plop the server would hand us bulging bags full of hot soup and that would be the signal ending my market adventure as my mom wo...
