Korean Mochi Bread

I have tried this Korean Mochi Bread many times and documented it in my old blog but each time, though it was good, it did not match the one I like from the bakery.

Finally, I found out the missing component and am glad now I can finally bake one that is close to my liking.

The texture is chewy and it stays so even after it has been cool completely.  


Source: Apologise as I cannot recall where I adapted this recipe from.

Learning experience:

When adding in the bread flour, this round, I only let it thicken slightly.

After adding in the tapioca flour, I had a hard time mixing it to smooth so I used a beater to do it.

Though it stated 2 eggs, I used less than 1.  Not too sure whether it is because mixture (bread adding stage) was not done too dry.

I will increase the salt a little to 3g next round and add another 5 - 10g cheese more next round.

Texture-wise, it is chewy and has a crispy crust while still warm.  The crust softens once the bread cools completely.

I will need to pipe it taller and 5cm diameter next round.  It did not lose its shape during baking and it does not spread.  So next round, I will do it in one pan instead.

Overall, it is good.

What you need:

2 eggs (I used less than 1)
30g bread flour
30g unsalted butter
2g salt
20g sugar
150g milk
130g tapioca flour
30g cheddar cheese

Method:

Preheat oven to 180°C.   Line a baking sheet.

Whisk egg and set aside.

In a bowl, whisk bread, salt, sugar and milk until smooth.

In a pot, melt butter.

Add in the flour mixture and stir until it thickens.  Remove from heat.

Mix in tapioca flour until a smooth dough is formed.

Slowly mix in eggs, making sure each addition, the egg is fully incorporated.   The batter should have a triangle shape dangling from the spatula.  Stop adding egg once this step reached.

Add in cheddar cheese and fold well.

Transfer to piping bag with a big round tip.

Pipe about 4 cm onto tray and smooth out the tip by damping your finger.  The dough does not spread much so you can keep them closer.

Bake for 20 – 25 mins.

Enjoy!
