Merry X'mas & Happy 2013!

圣诞树和圣诞花圈造型面包

  我很爱圣诞节。虽然不会像“红毛人”一样很正式的庆祝,有圣诞聚餐,交换礼物什么的。不过也会在家里摆放圣诞树,还有为小孩买圣诞礼物。我也都会给我的小孩添购圣诞服饰,然后到乌节路逛一圈。看着他们穿上圣诞服饰走在街上,煞是可爱!
我的作品! ^.^


今年的圣诞有一点不一样,今年女儿的圣诞裙是我自己缝制的,为了这个我超骄傲的。因为这件裙是我第一次用缝纫机缝制成的,还要是那种古董式的缝纫机哦~哈哈哈!裙子缝好后我超骄傲就是了,毕竟是第一次用缝纫机~哈哈哈哈哈!儿子的上衣是用了妹妹去年的连衣裤改成的。好像小了一点。哈哈~

这两款圣诞系列的面包是我上网逛时无意间看到的,我就很无聊的搜寻“圣诞面包”就跑出来一堆列表。看一下真的马上整个圣诞节气氛就来了!呵呵~

我没有根据原来作者的食谱做,因为食谱里用了南瓜泥、椰子粉和奇异果籽,都是我手上没有的食材。我不想一直添购不常用的食材,就只为了可能只会用一两次的食谱。所以我选用了同一个作者的另一款面包。

面包弄出来的效果我很满意、光看着就满满的圣诞节气息。

另外我还弄了14个树桐蛋糕送给亲朋好友~ 好忙哦!

还有还有,另外还弄了发夹给老公的同事的女儿,谢谢她一整年都不断给我们家小宝贝送过来二手的衣服,我几乎都没有买衣服给宝贝呢!
发夹,送给老公的同事的女儿的 ^.^

写完这篇文,我2012就正式休息了!我最近都一直躲在厨房里,好像有一点小忽略了我的两个宝贝,我得花一点时间陪他们呢~
我的宝贝!

祝大家(迟来的)圣诞快乐和美好的2013

Milk Bread 牛奶面包


我的烘焙kaki Ivy 传了这个食谱给我说可以试一试。刚好我正愁不知道要弄什么当今天的早餐,顺理成章它就变成了我的昨晚的烘焙目标,哈哈!


整个烘焙过程,从打面团到送进烘炉之前,我的心情是忐忑的,这个食谱的操作完全和我以前试过的食谱完全不一样。到了做造型的阶段我还一度以为面团出来应该能够用来丢人了。怎知道一出炉的面包软的吓死人。我才轻轻一碰,面包表面就凹了进去,不过又慢慢的反弹回来。哇!!!比中奖还要快乐!出乎预料的蓬又软。太开心了。

面包的组织很柔软、很细致。一口咬下去的浓浓牛奶香,果真是货真价实的牛奶面包呢!

看得到面包的组织吗?拍照的时候我不舍得把面包撕开,只好请你们看部分的边边好了,呵呵~

Danish Butter Cookies 丹麦牛油小饼



我在脸书参与的烘焙族群里最近刮起一阵“蓝铁盒丹麦牛油饼”风。大家都忙着烤这个大家小时候又爱又恨的小饼干。爱,因为它真得很好吃,香香的,脆脆的,一口咬下去满口的奶油香,我最爱其中有一款加有葡萄干的,超好吃的!那味道真的让人忍不住会一口接一口吃不停。恨,是因为那一小盒饼干价钱真的贵得吓死人,爸妈不会常常给我们买,所以一盒饼干我们都得省着吃,好吃得来又不能满足口腹之欲,真的好悲惨呢!

我的脸书里现在有两个版本,版本(一)是一位Ms. Caryn 分享的食谱,后来又出现了版本(二),分享者Mr. Alan使用的食谱取自Youtube,据说是道地丹麦烘焙师傅分享的食谱,即简单又好吃。我两个版本都试做了。试做时使用的是本地超市随手可得的Lurpak牌丹麦奶油。烤出来的香气真得很棒~ 刚烤好马上吃的话要属Ms. Caryn的版本较好吃。Mr. Alan的版本需要时间让奶油“融入”饼干里。我三天后试吃,味道“柔顺”了许多。香气也更足。不过我做好Mr. Alan 的版本后再看回他的部落格里分享的视频,才看到他稍微更改了食谱的比例。我想我很快会就原来视频的比例再试做一次. 

这一篇幅先分享Mr. Alan使用的食谱。

食谱:
(取自这里

60克 鸡蛋一粒

200克 牛油
130克 糖粉
320克 普通面粉
2汤匙 香草精 (或是一支香草莢

做法:



使用桌面式搅拌器:
1. 全部的材料放进搅拌盆用最低的搅拌速度搅打至全部食材混合。
2. 把面团装进挤花袋用喜欢的挤花嘴挤出喜欢的形状。
3. 放入预热200c的烤箱烤大概7-8分钟。
4. 饼干摊凉后收进密封盒即可。

喜波妈妈温馨小叮咛:
1. 牛油放置在室温到很软的程度。
2. 面团搅拌至看不见面粉就好了。千万不可搅拌过渡影响饼干的口感。用机器搅拌的时间不应该超过两分钟。
3. 把面团分成几次装进挤花袋有助于顺利挤出面团。
4. 烘焙时间需视花嘴的形状和厚度作调整。
5. 避免使用手握是搅拌器。

没有桌面式搅拌器的话,可以用一支比较硬的搅拌棒搅拌,只要搅拌至看不见面粉就可以了。普通木制的搅拌棒就可以了。

Pai Bao 排包


This was one of my favorite childhood foods. I like the one with cream and lots of chocolate rice in the middle. I always licked the cream and chocolate rice before I bite on the bun. Hoho~

I told my husband I am going to make this. He requested to have it with butter cream and sugar sprinkle in the middle. He said this is version of childhood memory. How amazing right? One type of bun presented in different way to two persons.

To make this pai bao is a new experience to me. The method use in this recipe is totally different from what I learnt previously. It mixes all ingredient together till it becomes smooth and non sticky to hand while the previous recipes I tried add in butter after the basic dough forms. I was in doubt but I decided to trust the recipe since I have chosen it. 疑人不用,用人不疑嘛~ haha! I am glad I try it. I like the texture very much as it is very soft and smells so fragrant compared to the other recipe that I used! Could it be the flour that I use? Well, I will not know until I try it again with the usual flour that I use.



Pai Bao 排包
(Recipe adapt and  from here:)

225g Bread flour 
60g Castor Sugar
45g Butter
110g Warm milk 110g (abt 120ml) *see mini note.
½ nos Egg 
7g Custard Powder
4g Instant Yeast

Method:

1. Mix all ingredient with dough hook/hand till the dough is smooth and non sticky to hand.
2. Place the dough in a big greased bowl. Let proof till double or 2.5x of its’ original size.
3. Deflate and divide the dough into 8 equal portions. I weigh and cut them into 8 equal portions.
4. Cover the let rest for 15mins under room temperature.
5. Flatten dough with a rolling pin. Then roll the dough. Pinch to seal. Roll and stretch the dough into a long dough about 2/3 of your baking tin’s width.
6. Place the dough in the middle of your greased baking tin with about 1cm apart between dough and dough with sealed side face downward.
7. Cling wrap/cover and leave proof till double of its’ size.
8. Egg wash and bake in pre-heated 180c oven for 15mins.

Hippomama’s mini notes:
1. Warm milk temperature shouldn’t exceed 40c as the yeast will die at 40c


华文食谱:
(原文照抄)

225g 高筋麵粉
60g 砂糖
45g 牛油
110g 温牛奶 (120ml)
1/2隻 
7g 吉士粉
4g 即溶酵母

1. 將所有材料在盆中混合拌勻成麵糰,將麵糰搓揉至麵糰光滑,有彈性而不黏手為準。

2. 將麵糰放在塗油大碗中,蓋上保鮮紙進行發酵。

3. 直至麵糰發酵至約3倍大小。(我只让面团发到两倍半)

4. 將麵糰分成8等份 (最好用磅量度!),蓋上保鮮紙鬆弛15分鐘。

5. 壓扁麵糰,並將麵糰由外向內捲。

6. 捲至尾部,將尾部的麵糰拉爛,繼續捲至收口。

7. 將麵糰收口位向下,排好造型放在己塗油的焗盆上,再蓋上保鮮紙進行第二次發酵至3倍大小。(也只发到两倍)
(焗盆最好預大一點,因為進行第二次發酵麵糰會再發大!)

 8. 在包面塗上蛋液,放入預熱焗爐180C,焗15分鐘至表面金黃即成。

喜波妈妈温馨小提醒:
1.温牛奶的温度不能超过40c

Tri-Colored Swissroll 三色瑞士卷


This was a last minutes bake. I totally forgotten my dear friend’s birthday is approaching when I saw my calendar marking that Sunday afternoon. I am like: “OMG! Her birthday is approaching!” I am not sure if I have sufficient time to prepare for her a decent birthday cake as it is just 3 days away, I need to work on weekday and little hippo #2 is entering school on the very next day. So I decide to come out with something simple yet special for her. My Orange Swissroll is a big hit among my tasters, so I decided to tweak from the recipe!
Tri-colored Swissroll

I am glad the roll turns out well without practicing. Think back now, I am so daring to tweak my bakes without even a trial run. This is so not me! Phew~

All I did was bake, roll and use a chocolate pen to write “Happy Birthday” on the swissroll. I didn’t manage to take a picture of final product as I was really rushing to go out. I am already late for my appointment with the kids’ godma!

Tri-colored Swissroll with Rum Raisin Butter Cream
Recipe:

Pre-preparation:
Raisin 2 TBSP
Rum Enough to cover raisin.

*Soak raisins in rum a few hours to 1 day in advanced.

(Make a 12” x 12” square cake tray)

Egg Yolks 4 nos
Fresh Milk 70g
Vanilla Essence 1 tsp
Vegetable oil 40g

2. In a bowl, whisk egg yolk, fresh milk, vanilla essence and vegetable oil till well combine. Add in flour, mix well.
3. Divide batter into 3 equal portions, add desire food coloring into the yolk batter.
4. In another bowl, beat egg whites and lemon juice till foamy, add sugar in 3 additions. Beat till stiff.
5. Weigh and divide meringue into 3 portions.
6. Fold in 1/3 of the meringue into 1 portion of egg yolk mixture. Repeats 2x for the other 2 colors.
7. Pour one colored batter mixture at one side of your baking tray. Repeats at the middle and lastly at another side of your baking tray, you can pour them side by side or any pattern that you like.
8. Smooth the surface and knock a few times on table top to get rid big bubbles in the batter.
9. Bake in preheated oven for 12-15mins or till golden.
10. Remove the cake from cake tray once it is out from oven. Tear the side parchment paper and leave it on cooling rack for abt. 5 mins (till the cake is warm and touchable). Inverted the cake and tear away the baking paper but leave the baking paper remains cover on the cake to prevent the cake from drying.

Rum Raisin Butter Cream filing:
Abt. 2 spoonful of soaked & drained rum raisins
80g Unsalted Butter (soften under room temperature)
125g Icing Sugar
½ tsp vanilla essence (optinal)

Hippomama’s mini note:
1. 60g eggs are used in this recipe.
2. I use salted butter to balance the sweetness from icing sugar although my recipe stated unsalted butter. You can sprinkle some salt if you find your butter cream is too sweet to your liking when you are using unsalted butter.
3. The usage of lemon juice or cream of tartar is to stabilize the meringue.
4. Weigh your empty bowl so that you are able to get the actual weigh of your batter/meringue and divide them accurately.

华文版食谱:


蛋黄4
鲜奶 70g
Vanilla 香精 1tsp
沙拉油/菜油 40g

Hippomama’s mini note:

2. 如果怕奶油内陷太甜,可以用含盐奶油。盐的咸度可以稍微中和甜度。
3. 蛋白加入柠檬汁/塔塔粉可以使打发的蛋白比较稳定,不容易消泡。
4. 开始操作之前先把空碗(或容器)先一一称过,这样就可以轻松的知道蛋黄糊/蛋白霜的重量,亦更方便把面糊/蛋白霜分成等份。

One Pot Meal #2 - Minced pork Tofu 肉碎香菇豆腐煲



Every full time working mom wish they have 8 pairs of hands so that they can multitask better and spend more time with their kids. I am one of them! Even when comes to weekend, we have dozen and dozen of house chores to do, (cannot close one eye, we already close one eye on weekday, no more eye close on weekend!), we have laundry to wash, we have activities to involve with our loves one, we need to do marketing, we need to pay visit to grandparents.... etc etc! Oh gosh! (OK, enough for the ranting!)

So one pot meal is a time and life saver to us at times! It uses the least ingredient and minimal preparation time for a hot warming food to be ready. But it is not so healthy to feed my kids one pot meal all days! Now, they have grown up a little (yes, just a little, =P), mummy can be lazy a little at times! (Oops!)

Minced pork Tofu pot is a good choice of one pot meal that suits young kids as they still require lots of proteins (from meat) and calcium (from tofu!) which the 2 main ingredients provide very good source of them.

Just simple ingredients to make a delicious dish!


One Pot Dish #2–Minced Pork Tofu
(enough for 2 adults to go with rice!)

Ingredient:
1 box of Silken Tofu
100gm of Minced Pork (quantity can be adjust according to your preference)
2 – 3 Chinese Dried Mushroom (omit if you don’t like)
2 tsp chopped garlic (abt. 2 cloves)
Chopped Spring Onion (for garnish)

Seasoning:
1 tsp light soy sauce
A few drop sesame oil
A few dashes white pepper powder (omit if you don’t like)
½ tsp corn flour

Sauce:
½ tsp cooking oil
1 TBSP Oyster Sauce
½ TBSP light soy sauce
Pinch of sugar
Water for stewing (Water leftover from soaked mushroom, add hot water if you need more)


Pre-preparation:
1. Soak Chinese dried mushroom in room temp water, drained the water and cut into small cube. This step has to be done at least 3-4 hours in advanced depends on the thickness of your dried mushroom.
2. Marinate minced pork with seasoning for about 10-15mins.
3. Cut silken tofu into 6 or 8 small pieces and soak them in a bowl of salt water (tap water mixed with ½ tsp salt)

Method:
1.  Heat cooking oil in a wok and stir fry garlic till brown.
2. Add in soaked mushroom and stir fry till fragrant.
3. Add in minced pork and stir fry till fragrant. Keep stirring to prevent the minced pork form into big cube. Break them into smaller piece with your spatula if the minced pork cube is big.
4. Add in water, Oyster Sauce and light soy sauce and bring to boil.
5. Add in tofu and gently stir a few times, lower the flame and simmer for 10 minutes.
6. Garnish with chopped spring onion and serve.

Mini notes from hippo:
1. Water used to soak dried mushroom should always room temperature water as hot water destroys natural flavors in dried mushrooms.
2. Request the butcher to grind the minced pork twice if you are using the minced pork for steaming/stewing for smoother/finer texture.
3. Always taste your finished cook before scoop them out from your wok. Adjust the taste to suit individual palate.

One Pot Meal #1 - Hippo Grandma’s Stew Mui Choy Pork Belly 梅菜扣肉



My grandma is a good teochew and Hokkien cuisine cook. But she passed away too young before I have the chance to learn all her skills.
Luckily my mom learnt a few dishes from her, and this is one of my favourite dish. I have bad cravings for Mui Choy Kou Yok so I gate crash my mom house to learn about this dish on last weekend afternoon. Haha!

To prepare this dish is not tough, this is a very easy and simple dish to prepare especially when you are too busy to prepare a proper 3 dish 1 soup meal, this will be a very good choice. Just a bowl of rice, tadah! Gao dim!



Hippo Grandma’s Stew Mui Choy Pork Belly (Stew Preserved Green mustard with Pork Belly)

Ingredient:
(Served about 6-8 person)

Mui Choy 500g
Pork Belly 300g
Garlic 2-3 cloves (chopped) + half a bulb for stewing.
Dark Soy Sauce 1 TBSP
Cooking oil 3 TBSP
Hot water enough to cover mui choy for stewing purpose.

Method:

1. Rinse, wash and clean Mui Choy thoroughly and soak for at least 30 mins to 1 hour.
(Remarks: Soaking is to reduce the saltiness of mui choy, soaking time will depends on the saltiness of mui choy you get.)
2. Clean the pork belly and cut into big cube.
3. Wring out the excess water from mui choy and cut them into about 1cm length.
4. Heat up cooking oil in a wok and fry the chopped garlic till fragrant (pic 1), put in the pork belly and stir fry till the surface is cooked. (pic 2), now put in the garlic bulb and mui choy, stir fry for awhile (pic 3 & 4). Pour in the dark soy sauce and stir fry till all mui choy is coated with dark soy sauce, (Pic 5, this step is also to fry till the dark soy sauce is fragrant.) Pour in hot water to cover the mui choy for stew. (pic 6)
5. Bring the pot of mui choy to boil for 20-30mins then lower the flame to small medium and stew till the pork and mui choy is soft. In a normal pot/earth pot, it should takes about 1.5-2hrs for the stewing process. Now, it’s ready to serve.



Notes from Hippomama:
1. Make sure you wash and rinse thoroughly to remove the tiny sand or dirt leave in the mui choy.
2. For unfinished mui choy, you can heat up and leave it in pot for next day consume. The longer the mui choy is boil, the tastier it is!
