Well, dear readers, here you go then. Just for the record, this isn’t traditional pandesal, but it has been a constant hit with my family and friends! So here you go….

    pandesal:

    kung puro flour ang gagamitin ko mga ilang cups ang kailangan ko? pareho din ba nitong recipe mo,idagdag ko lang yung cups na para sa wheat flour? mga 4 cups flour imbes na wheat flour at 5-7 flour ulit sa regular? tama ba iyon?

    Sorry, ngayon ko lang nakita ulit ang comments dito.

    Edita, much as I’d love to specify the amount of flour, I say 5-7 kasi it’s really dependent on the conditions in your kitchen. Humidity, your equipment, etc. What you’re shooting for is a sticky dough (para light s’ya), not too floury or dense kung hindi masyadong magiging mabigat and it won’t rise properly. BUT it shouldn’t be so sticky as to be hard to work with. That’s why I can’t suggest specifics, kasi working with dough is really a trial-and-error thing. You learn by making mistakes — and getting successes. It’s really difficult to get points across when online — kung andito ka I’ll just invite you over and we can have a breadbaking session.

    Carmen, pareho din ang amount kung regular flour lang lahat, yup. It’s all in the feel of the dough when you knead it.

    Yes, Lori, if you’re using all-purpose flour, same directions. Just watch that you don’t add in too much flour. It’s always easier to add more flour once you’ve got everything in a nice even mass than try to rehydrate, i.e., add more liquid.

    Malambot s’ya, Nald, pero s’yempre iba ang texture kasi nga may whole wheat.

    Tomas — I’m afraid I’m out of the loop. I have no idea what you mean by soya and repapip :D.

    Sige Lina, let me know how it goes.

    where is the recipe?

  17. on 21 Jul 2007 at 11:58 am donna

    hi stef,

    mga gaano karami ang 1 packet of dry active yeast? nasa can kasi ang yeast namin kaya di ko alam kung gano karami. many thanks.

  18. on 21 Jul 2007 at 12:51 pm stef

    hi jude, how are you storing it? i let them cool and then i put them in plastic resealable bags. this is really not the type that will stay soft all the time, partly because of the whole wheat, partly because of the other ingredients. if you want a really soft pandesal, i suggest you add an egg and use all milk instead of water and milk. Use the butter instead of oil.

    jan, you’ll see the recipe when you click the link. i found it easier to put it on a page rather than a post.

    donna, 1 packet of yeast is about 2 1/4 teaspoons. what kind of yeast are you using? if you are using instant like SAF you need to use less.
