Best 4 Pandesal Recipes

FILIPINO PANDESAL

Steps:

• Pour yeast into water. Add 1 teaspoon sugar and set aside to soften, about 7 minutes.
• Mix 1/4 cup sugar, oil, and salt together in a bowl. Add softened yeast mixture and 1/2 of the flour. Mix well. Add remaining flour little by little, mixing constantly, until dough does not stick to the sides of the mixing bowl.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth. Form into a ball and place in a lightly greased bowl. Brush surface of dough with more vegetable oil and cover with a damp cloth. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Punch dough down and roll into 2-inch rounds. Cover rolls with 1/2 of the fine bread crumbs and let rise again, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut rounds into 1 1/2-inch pieces and arrange on a slightly greased baking sheet, cut-side up. Sprinkle with remaining bread crumbs and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes more.
• Bake in the preheated oven until slightly brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

PANDESAL

Steps:

• Combine milk, 2 teaspoons sugar, and yeast in a large bowl; stir until sugar and yeast are fully dissolved, about 5 minutes.
• Mix remaining sugar, flour, and salt together in a large bowl. Pour in milk mixture and vegetable oil. Mix until dough comes together.
• Turn dough out onto a flat work surface. Knead until smooth. Shape into a ball and return to the bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled, at least 1 hour.
• Divide dough into 4 equal portions using a bench knife. Roll each portion into a log; slice diagonally into 1-inch pieces.
• Pour bread crumbs onto a large plate. Roll each piece of dough in bread crumbs and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let rise until puffy, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

UBE PANDESAL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a 4-cup spouted measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the milk, warm water, and egg. Whisk in the ube flavoring.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt and mix well.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour the wet ingredients into the well. Slowly mix together using a whisk or your hands until all of the moisture is absorbed by the dry ingredients and a dough begins to form, about 3 minutes. Add the butter to the dough and knead until incorporated, about 5 minutes.
• Spray a clean surface with nonstick spray. Transfer the dough to the surface. The dough will be sticky, but resist adding more flour as it will make the finished product tough and dry. Knead the dough by picking up from the center with both hands on either side of the dough and slapping the bottom end onto the countertop, then folding the top end forward. Rotate your hands 90 degrees and pick up the dough from the center again and repeat the slap and fold motion. Repeat until the dough is more elastic and has a significantly smoother texture, 8-10 minutes.
• Transfer the dough to a clean large bowl greased with nonstick spray and spray the top of the dough with more nonstick spray. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30-60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
• Once the dough has risen, grease your hands with nonstick spray and portion the dough into 24-25 pieces, about 50 grams each, then roll into balls. Cover the portioned dough with a kitchen towel to prevent a crust from forming while you shape each pandesal.
• Flatten a piece of dough evenly in your palm to create a disc about 3 inches in diameter. Place a cube of the easy-melt cheese in the center, gather the edges of the dough around the cheese and pinch to seal, then roll into a smooth ball. Immediately roll the finished pandesal in the bread crumbs to coat completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• Place 8-12 pandesal on each of 2-3 baking sheets lined with parchment paper and lightly cover with plastic wrap. Let proof at room temperature until doubled in size, 60-90 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Remove the plastic wrap from the baking sheets. Bake the pandesal, working in batches if needed, for 18-20 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden on the bottoms. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
• Enjoy!

PANDESAL (FILIPINO BREAD ROLLS - PAN DE SAL)

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, combine water and yeast. Allow to sit for 10 minutes until mixture becomes bubbly. Stir well.
• 2. In a small bowl, combine milk, butter, eggs, sugar and salt. Stir together until incorporated.
• 3. Add milk mixture and 2 cups flour to yeast mixture. Using an electric mixer, beat to combine. Gradually add the remaining 2-1/4 cup flour in ½ cup increments and continue to combine all ingredients.
• 4. On a lightly-floured surface, turn over dough and knead, lightly adding flour as necessary, for about 10 minutes or until smooth, supple and elastic.
• 5. In a lightly-oiled large bowl, place dough. Cover with film and allow to rise for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until double in size.
• 6. On a lightly-floured surface, transfer dough and divide into 24 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and roll on breadcrumbs to coat. Arrange balls about 1-inch apart on a lightly-greased baking sheet. (If you don't want them to be pull-apart but instead rise and bake separately, set them about 2 inches apart on baking sheet.) Cover with a cloth and allow to rise for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until double in size. Near the end of the rising time, start preheating oven to 350°F.
• 7. Bake in a 350°F oven for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot.
