Pound cake This time, I tried making a lemon pound cake, referencing muffin ingredient ratios. The finished product was softer, lighter, and fluffier than my usual pound cakes. With 10g of lemon juice, it had a subtle lemon flavor […]
Steamed bread This is my third time making Chinese-style steamed buns (with soy sauce and baking soda). This time, to make the flavor richer, I reduced the amount of flour (from 50g to 40g). The finished product had a richer flavor than last time, but perhaps because I reduced the amount of flour, or when steaming […]
Pound cake Making a pound cake with black beans and brown sugar. This time, I added 10g of black bean and brown sugar powder. The finished cake had a stronger kinako aroma and was sweeter than when I used 5g of powder. Also, this time I added about two pinches of baking soda, which made the ca […]
Steamed bread This is my second time making steamed bread with black bean brown sugar powder. This time, I added 10g of black bean brown sugar powder. As expected, increasing the amount of powder resulted in a stronger kinako (roasted soybean flour) flavor. The texture was fluffy. Also, […]
Jelly This time, I tried making a carbonated jelly with canned mandarin oranges. The finished product had just the right sweetness by adding 30g of sugar. I used Wilkinson's strong carbonated water, but the fizziness was weak. Carbonated […]
Jelly This time, I tried making milk kanten with canned mandarins. The finished product, perhaps because I didn't use sugar this time, was subtly sweet and refreshing. I felt the kanten could use a little more sweetness. Depending on the canned fruit, [...]

The finished product had a dark appearance, but it didn't taste like kinako (roasted soybean flour). It seems I didn't add enough powder. Also, this time, the baking method [...]
Steamed bread This is my second time making Chinese-style steamed buns (with added soy sauce and baking soda). The finished product tasted more like store-bought ma lai gao than last time, but there still wasn't enough soy sauce (and sugar?). There was too much flour […]
Jelly This time, I tried using Mitsuya Cider to make carbonated jelly with plum syrup. The finished product had a different fizziness because I changed the carbonated drink. It seems the fizziness will be the same as the carbonated drink you use. Also, when pouring carbonated […]
Jelly This time, we made carbonated jelly with pineapple. The sweetness of the finished product was just right, so I think the amounts of sugar and syrup (from the canned pineapple) were good. On the other hand, perhaps because there was too much water (hot water used to dissolve the gelatin), the carbonation's fizzle […]
