HOT UBE PANDESAL (FILIPINO PURPLE YAM BREAD ROLLS)
What I'm sharing here is my version of the hot pandesal we ate for breakfast as kids and even for merienda (snack time), with hot chocolate or warm milk. I love food with ube flavor thus incorporating it with my favorite breakfast bread. I know there are many pan de sal recipes online but hope you give this a try and let me know what you think. Thank you! Serve hot with or without spread/butter of your choice. For leftovers, warm in a toaster oven before serving for better taste.

PAN DE SAL - FILIPINO BREAD ROLLS
I grew up eating pan de sal for breakfast or merienda (snack). My favorite was Baliwag-style, enriched with milk, butter and egg. Knead dough in bread machine, then shape and bake in regular oven. Breadcrumbs provide that distinctive crunchy crust. Masarap (delicious)! **Dough ball should be as sticky as the back of a Post-it Note. Otherwise, add up to 2 TBL of flour or water, as needed.**

Steps:
- Microwave milk on High for 30 seconds; Warm uncracked egg to room temperature by placing in hot water for 60 seconds, then beat lightly; Melt or soften butter to room temperature.
- Select "Dough" cycle; Add all ingredients, EXCEPT for breadcrumbs, in the order your machine requires.
- First Rise: When the machine is done kneading, the dough will be sticky (gooey dough means moist pan de sal); Place dough in a bowl greased with Pam spray and spray top of dough with more Pam; Cover and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until doubled in volume (To test: gently poke dough with two fingers; if it leaves an impression without springing back, it is doubled).
- Second Rise: Gently deflate dough with your fist, then use a plastic spatula to divide dough into 24 ovals and roll them in the breadcrumbs.
- Line up ovals in a 9x13" ungreased cake pan with the rolls touching; that way, the pan de sal use each other for height support and not spread out like ciabatta; Let rise a second time for 30 minutes; Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 deg. F.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until tops are golden brown.
Tips:
- Activate the yeast properly: Make sure to use warm water (around 110-115°F) and add a pinch of sugar to help activate the yeast. Let the yeast mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy and bubbly.
- Knead the dough thoroughly: Kneading the dough helps develop the gluten, which gives the pandesal its chewy texture. Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise properly: After kneading, let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This allows the yeast to produce carbon dioxide gas, which creates the air pockets in the bread.
- Shape the dough gently: When shaping the dough into rolls, be gentle and avoid degassing it. This will help retain the air pockets and prevent the bread from becoming dense.
- Bake the pandesal at a high temperature: Baking the pandesal at a high temperature (400°F) for a short period of time helps create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
