A Day Full of Bread Making Fun

It was a very busy, tiring but fun day for me yesterday, I'd started making doughs for bread/ buns from about 2pm and finished baking the last batch at about 9pm!

Eve (she has made a few comments at my chat box, & met her personally for the 1st time on last Mon) dropped by at 3pm to join me with the bread making fun. We made 4 batches of bread doughs, inclusive 1 of Eve's.

The 1st batch we made was whole meal sausage buns + about 6 dried prawn sambal buns:

The 1 at top right is the dried prawn sambal bun (in round shape), the rest r sausage buns in different shapes

Common looking sausage roll, the sausage was totally hidden by the dough after proofing & baking

The sausage was rolled with a long strip of bread dough

After folding in all the sausages, I still have 6 bread doughs left, found the sambal dried prawn (cooked by Serdang aunt) in fridge, decided to fill it into the remaining doughs

The 2nd batch was ham & cheese bread loaf:

It was very tall, spongy & creamy

I made the 1st & 2nd batches of dough b4 Eve arrived, as she wanna look see the process of it, I showed her with the 3rd batch. We turned the dough into bacon & cheese swirls.

So yummilicous!

Eve handled the 4th batch, which turned into more sausage buns and bacon & cheese swirls.

I was glad that I didn't make any mistakes during the bread making process, was extremely satisfied with those buns & a bit hyper too at the end of the day, think was due to the tiredness. Also, felt a bit paiseh (sorry) to let Eve (and her son GV) for staying til so late (about 9+pm), hope it was a fun & fruitful day for both of u too, Eve.
