So I have made an extremely similar iteration of this recipe not too long ago using black mission figs – this recipe uses the same bread dough and the sweet and savory miso-ricotta spread, which I am obsessed with. But this time around, I wanted to use Momotaro tomatoes. Momotaro tomatoes are these light pink…

Baymax Sourdough Loaves
I have been seeing videos of people enjoying these adorable Baymax sourdough loaves at Disneyland’s San Fransokyo, and I just had to take a swing at making these myself. I will be honest, I felt a bit read when I saw the first Big Hero 6 trailer, mostly because Hiro Hamada totally ripped off my…
Matcha Swirled Conchas
So I was not actually trying to make concha originally. These were going to be swirled matcha melon pan, but what ended up happening was that between how I was attempting to swirl my matcha and regular bread dough together and how my topping dough baked, I ended up with breads that looks like conch…
Trio of Milkbread Shio Pan
So I had zero clue what shio pan was until the beginning of 2024 when I saw someone make shio pan and referring to them as “salt bread”. This whole time, I just thought that they were chubby croissants, and as someone who has studied Japanese for 5 years and lived in and visited the…

Herb and mushroom focaccia
So this recipe was actually inspired by a dinner I had at Etta in Culver City. Originally from Chicago, Etta is a modern Italian restaurant that features a lot of upscale versions of Italian classics, namely pizzas, pastas, and bread. The focaccia I had there was super pillowy and light, while speckled with tons of…
Mini milk bread toasts with homemade bread and jams
I just randomly had an epiphany the other day to make mini brick toasts with ricotta and jam. Mostly because I was missing the brick toasts from Sqirl(yes I know that’s controversial to be a fan of that restaurant with all of the moldy jam and recipe-stealing scandals, but you can’t deny that the food…
