This weekend my family and I went to Japan town and enjoyed bento boxes and tofu salad. The tofu salad had a great dressing and the tofu was fresh and a palate cleanser from the greasy dressing.
The bento boxes had sushi rolls, grilled meat, rice, salmon and tuna, and a side of miso soup!
Today I will be sharing a recipe for doughnuts covered in sugar. They were delicious and filling as I got the crunchy exterior and the chewy interior. It had a nutty yet sweet flavor from the golden brown crust and sugar crystals.
Step 1: Measure 100 grams of flour, 15 grams of sugar, 2 grams of dry yeast, and 10 grams of cornstarch. Add a pinch of salt and mix.
Step 2: Microwave a bowl of water so it is hot. Into a smaller bowl, mix half an egg and 35 cc milk. Put the smaller bowl into the water and heat the milk, egg mixture until its warm.
Step 3: Combine the dry and wet mixture until it forms a ball. Grease the bowl with vegetable oil and place that bowl into the warm water. Leave covered with plastic wrap for an hour as shown above.
Step 4: Punch the gas out of the dough and separate the dough into 3 or 4 balls. Let rest for 15 minutes covered with a damp cloth.
Step 5: Poke a hole into the dough and make a hole that is a little bigger than the size of a quarter. Let rest for another hour.
Step 6: Heat vegetable oil in medium low heat. The oil is ready to fry when you the oil bubbles if you stick a wooden chopstick into it. Fry for a minute on each side. Make sure the oil isn't too hot or it will burn the doughnuts while not cooking the interior.
Step 7: Place the finished doughnuts on a napkin or paper towel to absorb the rest of the oil. Enjoy with sprinkled sugar or by making a glaze with powdered sugar and water.
