How to get Ensaymada delivered to you?
Check the list above contact on their social media page or website and ask if they have delivery, another option is to go download foodpanda and search for bakeries online or restaurants that offer your ensaymada in their own style, have you ever tried the triple cheese ensaymada of starbucks? (don’t think its offered anymore)
Ensaymada is a popular snack Makanan in the Philippines. It has become a staple food in the country due to its affordability and ease of preparation. In fact, it is often considered as the national snack of the Philippines.
Tips to making soft fluffy Ensaymada bread
Baking soft bread and in this case Ensaymada, is one of those things that seems really complicated until you learn how to bake it right.
It takes practice and patience to master the art of baking soft bread. If you don’t have these two qualities, you may find yourself frustrated and disappointed after trying to bake soft bread.
So here are five Tips to help you bake soft Ensaymada bread successfully.
#1. Use Bread Flour Instead Of All Purpose Flour
All purpose flour is made from wheat, corn, rye, barley, oats, and other grains. This flour has been processed extensively, resulting in a fine texture and flavor. However, bread flour is made from whole grain flours, such as wheat, rye, and spelt.
This means that bread flour has a coarser texture and stronger flavor. As a result, bread flour is easier to knead and makes softer baked goods.
#2. Mix Water With Yeast Before Adding To Dough
Mixing water with yeast before adding to dough helps prevent the dough from becoming too dry. Dry dough doesn’t rise properly.
Add 1/2 cup of warm water to 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast. Stir thoroughly and let sit for 10 minutes. Then add remaining ingredients and mix together using a wooden spoon. Continue mixing until dough comes together.
#3. Let Dough Rise For Longer Than Normal Time
Letting dough rise longer than normal Masa gives it more time to develop gluten strength. Gluten is the protein found in wheat that allows dough to stretch easily without breaking apart.
When dough rises, the gluten proteins expand and strengthen. This results in a chewy crust and tender crumb.
To determine how much time to allow for rising, divide the total amount of time needed for rising by the number of loaves you plan to bake.
For example, if you plan to bake four loaves of bread, divide 4 hours by 4 to get an average rise time of 1 hour per loaf.
Then multiply the rise time by the number of lofts you plan to bake. For example, if you plan on baking four loaves, multiply 1 hour by 4 to get 4 hours of rising time.
#4. Add Salt During Rising Period
Adding salt to dough during the first half of the rising period improves the taste of bread.
Salt draws moisture from the air and prevents the dough from drying out. This keeps the dough moist and supple.
During the second half of the rising period, sprinkle additional salt over the top of the dough.
#5. Bake Soft Bread At High Temperature
Soft bread should be baked at higher temperatures than regular bread.
Regular bread requires a temperature between 180°F and 200°F. Soft bread needs a temperature between 220°F and 240°F.
A hotter oven produces a crisper crust and better browning.
In conclusion, if you live in Metro Manila, you should definitely consider buying ensaymada from the vendors in this list. They have the best quality and taste, and their prices are very reasonable. Their ensaymada is also available in different Perisa like chocolate, strawberry, banana, and even coffee. Try them today and let us know which is your best pick!
