chefs in the block!
Day 3 in Maya and I'm super late!!!@#$%^! Damn traffic everywhere! plus they already finished taking the exam! :( gotta take a special one later...

We're doing commercial bread today like the ones you buy from your local panaderia or french baker..why I said that? Chef Subida told us that bread making is an exact science that everybody uses the same recipe, the only difference is the quality of ingredients one is going to use! So it means if you're willing to spend a lot with your bread ingredients, like getting the best stuff out there, it will taste better..:))

So to the kitchen we go!...There are only two recipe that we're going to make..one is the regular dough and the sweet one...in one kind of dough mix one can make different kinds of breads, like on the sweet dough we are going to prepare some cinnamon rolls, enseymada, and spanish breads! On the regular dough we're going to prepare our favorite breakfast bread which is pandesal..oh yeah!

Bhel started mixing the dry ingredients together and it was my job to knead the dough manually since they did not allow us to use the mixer, it's a way to make us feel the proper texture of the dough..I have some experience kneading onboard that it's not a big deal for me, Ms Charina even commented that "praktisado"..hehehe..I turned it over to Bhel and I saw that she knows it too..then Fatz had her shot and...hmmm..a little bit more..?? :)))

Disaster struck on the other dough mixture...Ms Elvie noticed that it's too white and immediately commented that all purpose flour was used instead of bread flour! hahahah! One of my group mate did not notice that the recipe needs bread flour and put in the" mise en place" ( pronounced miz on plas, a french term literally meaning putting in place...soo frenchy! ) all purpose one...to late to change since they already started the kneading process...

Notable technique I saw was the preparation of the bread pan for the cinnamon rolls...putting water, butter, and sugar all together to make the bread super moist!! Got one there!

Time passed and time to taste our creations...the best is the cinnamon rolls..it has dreamy sugary delight taste !! The enseymada was a close second with it's puffy soft texture, then the Spanish bread can be improved upon..and lastly was the pandesal..maybe because of the flour fiasco..:))

Sum it all up it was an entertaining day!! plus a little bit of side note for miss Fatz and Dan "wala sa amin nyan" Surigao boy..hehehe..
