Mini Bluder, the bread of love



Why is it called the bread of love?

What else can you call the bread, when hubby was actually the one kneading the dough! It's so sweet of him. I went to the room, sweating and tired of punching and kneading the dough, and it's still not done yet. So I begged him to help me with the kneading part, and to my delight, he actually stood up, washed his hands, and started to help me with kneading part.

Those of you who don't know bluder, it's actually a higher class form of bread. This bread consumed more eggs, preferably egg yolks, and butter. The end result should be a softer bread. Some old recipe passed down from my mother, actually uses up to more than 10 egg yolks in the recipe. 

While I wanted to try some old recipe that I got from my mother, I just could not take the risk of failure and decided to take an easy way out. This recipe, only used 6 egg yolks and 2 egg whites.

The result? Hubby, my dear food critics, commented that it was like those that he could find from those "abang-abang", and I was like, "What???? You mean my bread can't even be compared to Bread Talk?"
Then again, without any bread improver, this bluder was soft and it stayed considerably soft and fluffy after I put them in fridge.

Since I still have a lot of yeast, expect more bread from me..
