Black Tea Cheese Steamed Bread. The black tea flavor is strong, and I can’t taste the cheese.

This time, I tried making steamed bread with black tea and cheese. When it was done, I had put in a lot of cheese, but even so, I couldn't taste the cheese, and it ended up being a somewhat cloying black tea-flavored steamed bread. I wonder if cheese and black tea (tea leaves) are not compatible flavors […]

Black Tea Steamed Bread 5. Uses 35g milk, 20g oil, and 5g tea leaves to achieve a texture similar to store-bought products.

This time, I tried making steamed cheese buns with 35g milk, 20g oil, and 5g black tea leaves. The finished product had a fluffy and moist texture, very similar to store-bought items. When adding dried ingredients (like tea leaves) to steamed buns, […]

Steamed Cheese Bread 3. 35g milk, 20g oil, 20g cheese, surface slightly bumpy.

This time, I tried making steamed cheese bread with 35g milk, 20g oil, and 20g cheese. The finished product had a slightly uneven surface, which might have been due to too much moisture. Also, the cheese aroma was faint, and the texture was fluffy and moist […]

Coffee Steamed Buns. Even fluffier with oil.

This time, I tried making steamed bread using rice oil and instant coffee. I forgot to add oil last time, so this time I re-challenged it with oil.   The finished product was fluffier with the oil. The taste is the same, so the oil […]

Steamed Black Tea Muffin 4. Increasing milk and reducing oil makes it a bit sticky.

This time, I tried making steamed tea bread with extra milk and less oil. The finished product had a soft texture and was slightly sticky. If I were to add any more moisture, it might turn out like uiro (a type of mochi). Tea steamed bread […]

Pound cake

Okara Pound Cake 2. Even 10% of the flour amount is sufficient.

This is my second time making pound cake with okara. The finished product only contained about 10% okara to flour, but it tasted of both okara and egg. Also, I felt that adding okara made the texture heavier. And […]

Okara pound cake. Quite a crumbly texture.

Today, I tried making a pound cake with okara. The finished product was neat with no shrinkage, but the okara flavor was strong, and there was no egg flavor. The texture was also crumbly. I think the amount of okara powder (20g) was too much […]

Pound cake

Soy milk pound cake. I added too much soy milk and it turned out raw and was a failure.

This time, I tried making a pound cake with soy milk. The finished product was a bit undercooked, perhaps because I added too much soy milk. The bottom half, which was undercooked, didn't rise, resulting in an odd shape. Perhaps because it wasn't baked properly, the soy milk taste […]

Pound cake

Pound cake with rum syrup. Boiling down the rum makes it lose its aroma.

This time, I decided to boil down rum and sugar to make a rum syrup and pour it over a pound cake.   The finished product was a sweet egg pound cake, as the rum aroma had dissipated (there was almost no alcoholic bitterness either) […]
