Why would u find the yellow skin nicer? I'm not particularly vested. But Ive made dumplings with the brand recommended by Tohto and the yellow skin one made by my mum before.

My preference is towards the white one. Texture is nice. If it doesn't taste nice. Then it should be your filling problem lol. 

Maybe you are right, could be my filling problem. I would do some trial and error on the filing using white skin. Also could be my first time eating white skin and might be my taste bud get too used to yellow skin?! Lol.

In order not to eat too much kee, i would buy the white skin from now on if i cook wanton at home. If eat outside, then no choice liao.

Covid 19 and I heard that Phoon Huat Pte Ltd had run out of baking flour.

Nevermind la  because baking bread is really simple.

Paired with yamazaki 18 yrs? 😋

Not really a fan of the yamazaki, personally prefer the hakushu myself. But in this case we were sipping rum, the Ron Zacapa 23 is a really great drink.

Butter also OOS.

You just have to say, "what do you guys know about siblings of hospital food?" and everyone will shut up and not tell you how nice is white over yellow liao....

Looks good! How’s the inside? Mine is a bit doughy/chewy. Trying to tweak ..

What flour did you use? Oven temp? Fan on? 😅

The inside texture for today's is closer to normal bread from bread maker (slightly too hollow / poorer sauce absorption), while the exterior is very crispy. But we prefer the contrast in texture of the previous batch (inside was slightly more fluffy, which offer better sauce absorption).

We use 100% bread flour for the previous batch, whereas about 1/4 bread flour and 3/4 plain flour for today. One mistake was that I never adjust the amount of water used, since different flour (plain flour has slightly higher moisture than bread flour) was used, and also it rain quite heavily in the morning (high humidity), so should reduce water by about 10ml thereabout.

Oven setting: 230°C with no fan.

Must add some plain flour for the airy feel...

My Execute Chef (wife) say one..

May I know what is the ratio of bread flour to plain flour? I also think should mix for better texture, but make too drastic changes today as running out of bread flour.

Thanks for the comments and the link. When bread flour becomes available, I'll play around with the ratio of bread:AP flour to see their effect on texture. Must be mindful to adjust the amount of water used 😅

Taiwan pineapple is good.

I've lost touch but in old days, the best pineapples came from Sarawak. I'm not sure if this is still true and how Sarawak pineapples compare with Taiwanese ones?

Because yesterday went out to some bakery shop to stock up some unusual pastry stuff for breakfast and tea break for the next 2 days. Since i am not like so many bros here so expert in baking for bread and pastries. So have to go buy off-the-shelf, if not nothing to eat liao.

Same here bro. Usually I will be lazy to go buy breakfast on my own after sending the Mrs to office. 

For this I will park the ride on the way home.
