When I was small, I used to pick wild Japanese mugwort from my neighborhood to use for cooking. Since I don't see them anymore, I used yomogi flour instead.

To prevent the hot water splashing onto the bread, be extra careful with the amount of water you use. Also take care when you're removing it from the pan. You can prevent the hot water from dripping if you double the liners (or place muffin cups inside), in which case you'd only need to lift out the cups inside. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru
