These chocolate muffins are made following the recipe from Joy of Baking. The muffins stayed soft for 2-3 days (kept in zip-lock bag in room temperature).
My notes:
- reduced sugar to 110g of dry demerara sugar
- baked at 190 degC for 30 mins
- to replace buttermilk: use 1 tbsp of vinegar and fill up to one cup with fresh milk, let sit for 5 mins
This is an easy recipe and you really do not need to pay for that expensive chocolate muffin from Starbucks :p
Looks YUMMY la...... （^^）
ReplyDelete:) Long time! I see that you've been baking bread. I really don't know how to make bread so can only envy yours!
ReplyDeleteHaha, nowadays Im in love with bread leh, so try the best to make it better lol....
DeleteNo need to envy mine, as you can make it as well, if you want :)
Hehe 看来真的很难，我还真不知道要从何做起 :p
Delete有心的话，就得要开始了解面包的做法，然后去做，去体会妳就会懂了唷
Delete开始了，就会越懂越多，也会爱上它，嘻嘻
其实我不了解的时候，也是觉得难，现在了解了，就ok了
你说的对 ：）我是想到过程就打退堂鼓了，听说面包机能代替手工kneading, very tempted to own one :D
Delete我听有面包机的朋友说，要打两次面团，面包组织才较理想哦
Delete她们用搅拌机打面团，效果比较理想
其实手工Kneading也不难，掌握技巧也是没问题的
只是，用搅拌机和面包机的话，会省时省力，呵呵
两年前我用手工，满头大汗，发现做面包真的不容易，加上新加坡太热，象三温暖 哈哈！ 有什么tips吗？
Delete妳可以参考网络上分享出来的视频，看人家怎样摔打面团，然后再动手做，慢慢就会上手了咯！面团一定要摔打至可拉筋状态，面包组织才会理想哦，加油咯！^^
DeleteOk! 该再次鼓起勇气了！ 谢谢你的鼓励噢 ：）
DeleteHi Baking Scientist,
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what oven you use for all your delish baking? Care to share if you recommend your oven brand or model? Many thanks!
Hi Boon Suan, thanks for visiting :D I am using Bosch HBN331E2J. it is a built-in oven and what I like about this oven is its digital timer, which is very useful when it comes to baking cakes. It was a breeze to call a popular neighbourhood electrical store, got a price quote (better price than big electrical store), and delivered, payment by cash/cheque upon delivery! I read up on HHB's blog http://happyhomebaking.blogspot.sg/2010/11/is-it-b-b-or.html before making the decision :) Hope the info is useful. Good luck to your oven hunting!
