Salted Butter Bread


Today, I stopped thinking about chocolate for a while ^^.

And making bread as it's one of my favorite things, well, I think that making bread can reduce my stress.

The recipe that I will share with you is Japanese-style bread 塩パン (shiopan), or salt bread. A small bread that comes with flakes of salt on top and there are many recipes for this kind of bread with different textures and shapes.

The bread is filled with butter that you can use salted or unsalted (depending on your taste), for me I use salted butter. You might think that 8 g is too little but too much of it can cause leaking and your bread will end up in a pool of butter while baking with nothing inside.

The texture of the bread depends on the type of flour that you use and the amount of water you can start with 130 of the water and add more until you get a pliable dough.
