Shokupan is the softest, fluffiest bread you will ever make. ☁️🍞 The equipment I used to make this bread: Matsunaga Seisakusho Shokupan Mould Tadafusa Hocho Kobo 230mm Bread Knife If you end up picking any of this up from Knifewear, put “cookingwithcarby” in the discount code for a small discount. Recipe and measurements below 👇🏻 Yudane: * 80g bread flour * 80g boiling water Dough: * 315g bread flour * 210g 3% milk * 32g white sugar * 6.5g salt * 5g dry active yeast * 32g softened butter Recipe: * For the yudane, mix boiling water and flour, and mix until a sticky paste forms. Cover with plastic wrap, and leave at room temperature overnight. * For the dough, warm the milk to 110°F mix in yeast, sugar, bloom for 5-10 minutes. * Add the flour, salt, and yudane (in pieces) and mix for 3 minutes. * Increase the speed to medium for 3-5 minutes, until the dough forms 1 smooth mass and cleans the sides of the bowl. * Set mixer to low and add in small pieces of the butter, until fully incorporated. Turn back to medium, and mix for 8-12 minutes. * Check if the dough passes the windowpane (stretch a small piece, see if it goes thin enough to let light through without tearing), otherwise keep mixing. * Lightly oil the bowl, cover and proof for 1.5 hours. * Divide into 3 equal balls (roughly 250 g). Cover and rest for 15 min. * Lightly grease the shokupan mould. * 1 at a time, roll out each ball into a large rectangle, roughly 25 x 13 cm. Fold the long edges in towards the middle, slight overlap in the middle. Then roll lightly into a long rectangle roughly 30 x 8 cm. * Roll up the rectangle from the short side to form a log, place seam side down in the shokupan mould. * Slide the lid closed, and proof until about 1.5 cm from the top (90 minutes). * Bake at 375°F for 34 minutes. * Remove from oven, and drop from a few inches above a towel-lined cutting board to “shock” the bread. * Remove loaf from pan, and cool completely before slicing (15 min on side 1, then side 2, then upright). #bread #shokupan #japanesefood #kitchenware #recipe
