Add the powdered milk,

Yes we tried
the tangzhong method recently and were very pleased with the result.
I've been making
Tangzhong bread for last couple of years with my bread machine and they are great.
We did not yet add
tangzhong to other recipes.
Gave it a try in the weekend, changed 10 % in the recipe with
the tangzhong.
When the yeast is ready, add
the tangzhong and egg into the yeast mixture, then whisk to combine.
Tangzhong is not the same as bread improver.
I tested
the tangzhong dough was not good enough after 20 minutes kneading.
Christine, In response to your explanation to Sarah about incorporating
TangZhong into normal bread recipe, can I ask, when you mention «all the wet and dry ingredients of any bread recipe», do you also include butter and egg?
Other reasons (I can think of)-
my tangzhong?
The leftover
tangzhong can be stored in fridge up to a few days as long as it doesn't turn grey.
Hi CarinE, As I said
the tangzhong dough is more sticky than the regular dough.
Don't ever cook
tangzhong too long and too thick.
As
tangzhong retains much moist inside, the bread would be a bit heavier than the regular ones.
The tangzhong can be used straight away once it cools down to room temperature.
Hi Quinn, For making
the tangzhong, I often use 50 grams of bread flour and 250 ml of water and then I can get about 245 grams tangzhong (How can I know?
Anyway, just a quick reply: The unsed
tangzhong should be kept in fridge.
Now to see if
the tangzhong will really keep the bread soft for 3 days or more, if they don't get eaten before then LOL!
you're right,
the tangzhong bread method IS addicting:) i'm a beginner at baking and stumbled onto your site after searching for hokkaido milk bread.
I didn't use my bread machine to bake the bread, just used it to knead
the tangzhong dough.

tangzhong in all my attempts =\.
So much that I made
teh tangzhong recipe last night... going to finish off tonight.
Add all ingredients (except butter) into a breadmaker, first the wet ingredients (milk, cream, egg,
tangzhong), then followed by the dry ingredients (salt, sugar, milk powder, bread flour, yeast).
I do agree that the breadmaker is the best way to knead
Tangzhong dough.
Hi Christine, Thank you for
your tangzhong recipes.
Christine - Thanks for the guidance on using
tangzhong.
@Lisa: I have tested
the tangzhong method with my stand mixer too.
I cooked
my tangzhong to the thick paste consistency until lines formed as you mentioned.
Tangzhong method definitely make s bread looks delicious and airy.
I don't think the fresh
tangzhong was the cause of your flattened bread coz I always made breads with cooled down
tangzhong right away.
@Anonymous: I tried with both of my stand mixer and bread maker, and found that bread maker performed much better than stand mixer in kneading
this tangzhong dough.
I also used
the tangzhong paste straight away when it was cooled to room temp.
How would you know how much bread flour and water is used to obtain 120g
TangZhong?
As
the tangzhong batter is too sticky, the batter just sticks to the hook and curls up to top, and not properly being kneaded at all.
To Yvonne, Not necessary to chill
the tangzhong.
Yes, you can use milk to make
tangzhong, or use half water and half milk.
That's why I put the warning along side with
my tangzhong recipes.
In fact, when comes to making
this tangzhong bread, I just rely on my bread machine to do the hard work of kneading for me.

a tangzhong variation on my standard 75 % hydration sourdough ciabatta.

The first bread with
tangzhong I made night before and store in the fridge.
(Note: The chilled

For
me tangzhong is a new tool in the box for managing high hydration doughs.
I've already added a remark in my latest recipe of apple custard buns made with
tangzhong, it's better to use a bread maker, as it seems to be too difficult to knead by hands at all.
Can u convert the amount of water for
tangzhong method from 250 ml to gram (any formula)?
And when you say subtract, do you subtract from the 120g
TangZhong amount or do you subtract from the original amount?
