Seaweed bread, a delightful fusion of umami and soft texture, is a favorite in many Asian cuisines. Here’s a simple guide to crafting this treat at home.
Basic Ingredients:
- 300g all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp instant yeast, 1/2 tsp salt, 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 egg, 120ml warm milk, 2 tbsp melted butter
- 20g roasted seaweed sheets, crumbled
- Optional: sesame seeds or furikake for coating
Steps:
1. Dough Preparation: Mix flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Add egg, warm milk, and butter, knead into a smooth elastic dough (about 10 mins). Let it rise in a warm place until doubled (1-1.5 hrs).
2. Seaweed Integration: Punch down the dough, knead in crumbled seaweed evenly. Divide into 8-10 portions, roll each into a ball.
3. Shaping & Second Rise: Flatten balls into oval/disc shapes. Place on a baking tray, cover, and let rise for 30 mins. Brush with milk, sprinkle with sesame/furikake if desired.
4. Baking: Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for 15-18 mins until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
Variations:
- Sweet Version: Add 2 tbsp honey to the dough and fill with red bean paste.
- Savory Twist: Mix shredded cheese or chopped scallions into the dough.
- Healthier Option: Use whole wheat flour and add chia seeds.
