Grandpa Ryan's Magic Breadboard Pandesal
Grandpa Ryan's Most Awesome Pandesal
For a while it was a secret recipe! 🥲
On several occasions when we would get together various ingredients would come out as a slip of the tongue.
I was trying to figure out each time we got together what secret ingredients was he using? 🤔
Ryan took me by surprise one day when he handed me his recipe and said "I'm giving you my Pandesal recipe, It's no longer a secret"
I explained to Ryan that Now Having the secret recipe in hand, it was a big fail each of the two times I attempted to duplicate his Pandesal.
With that being said, one day he paid us a surprise visit by coming over with not only a batch of Pandesal, but a revised detailed recipe and "Magic Breadboard!"
As you can see in all the pictures included that I used the magic breadboard in all my preparation.
So now, finally, success! at duplicating his awesome delicious Pandesal.
I personally think it's the breadboard that makes all the magic happen!
PS. Even though Ryan is now retired,
he enjoys making breadboards in his woodworking shop.
If you too would like to own a "Magic Breadboard" for making awesome delicious Pandesal. let me know and I'll get you his contact information. 🍞

• Add 1-cup milk and mix well
- 2
Heat in microwave for about 50 seconds, stir lightly and test if warm. Carefully bring
temperature up until slightly warm (105 degrees) to the touch, do not get it hot or the yeast will not work.
- 3
Add 3 tsp yeast to breadmaker.
• Pour liquid measure over yeast and mix.
• Let mixture sit in breadmaker for 12 minutes.
• After the 12 minutes, add softened melted butter
- 4
While the yeast is activating, measure the dry ingredients.
4 cups + 2 tbsp bread flour
1 tsp salt
• Add flour mixture to breadmaker.
- 5
Start dough cycle. When completed put dough on a floured cutting board.
- 6
With a digital scale set to metric measurement, cut pieces of dough and make dough balls 40-
44 grams in size. (Size is your preference). Fold the balls over several times (approximately 8-9 folds) and pinch the bottoms to complete each roll.
Breadcrumbs (Italian style)
Put about 2 cups of breadcrumbs into a bowl. As you make your rolls, roll the dough in the breadcrumbs.
Lightly oil a large cookie sheet with spray oil. Line rolls on pan.
- 7
When all the rolls are completed, cover with plastic wrap or light towel and let rise for 60
minutes.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. (Suggest you set a timer to insure not overcooking.)
NOTE: As an alternative to Pandesal style bread, eliminate rolling in breadcrumbs and brush
with melted butter AFTER baking for soft buttery dinner rolls.

Pandesal (Filipino Bread Rolls) Using The Tangzhong Method Pandesal (Filipino Bread Rolls) Using The Tangzhong Method
Pandesal is a popular bread in the Philippines 🇵🇭. My husband’s family is Chinese-Filipino, so I’ve been a huge pandesal fan for a very long time. Unfortunately, there are no Filipino bakeries near us, so we’ve ordered pandesal online in the past. I finally decided to make them at home.I prefer feathery, light and fluffy pandesal. This recipe achieves that by using tangzhong. Tangzhong is a thick pudding‑like gel made by cooking flour in liquid. Mixing this gel into the dough lets you create a high hydration dough that isn’t overly sticky. In the oven, the abundance of water turns to steam and inflates the dough, making it light and soft. Tangzhong also extends the shelf life of baked goods.This recipe requires a LOT of kneading, which is critical to obtaining the right dough texture. The dough also starts out very gooey and sticky, which is very difficult to knead by hand. For optimal results, you need a stand mixer.This recipe is from Michael Grode#Asian #Classic #Snack #Breakfast #Lunch #BreadWeek2025
