Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut kabocha squash into even pieces, and either steam or microwave until tender. Mash it while it's hot, add sugar and salt, adjust the consistency with milk, then divide it into 10 even balls.
- 2
To make the kabocha squash bread: Put flour for making the hot-water-kneaded dough in boiling water (it must be boiling temperature), and use a spoon to mix. Once it forms a dough, lightly shape into a ball.
- 3
Add a pinch of sugar (not listed) in lukewarm water, sprinkle in the yeast, then stir it until the yeast dissolves.
- 4
In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt (at a good distance from the sugar), butter, and the hot-water-kneaded dough. Pour the dissolved yeast over the sugar mixture, and mix the flour and hot-water-kneaded dough until the consistency is even.
- 5
Once the flour is blended in, add one heaping tablespoon of the mashed kabocha. Press the dough into the bottom of the bowl until forms a ball, then knead it lightly with both hands.
- 6
After about 3 minutes of kneading, the dough will stop sticking to your hands, then it's ready. If it continues to stick, wash your hands, then knead it again.
- 7
Divide the dough into 10 portions. Round the surface of each piece of dough, seal the cut ends, and using your palm, gently form a ball by moving your hand in a circular motion. Let the dough balls sit for 15 minutes.
- 8
For the cocoa dough: Make the hot-water-kneaded dough and yeast mixture as in the steps to make the kabocha dough. Combine the ▲ ingredients with the yeast mixture, then, as with the kabocha dough, knead, divide into 10 portions, form into balls, and let rest for 15 minutes.
- 9
Flatten both the kabocha dough balls and the cocoa dough balls, making sure that it's thick at the center. Inside the kabocha dough, place a ball of mashed kabocha filling, then wrap the dough around it and seal tightly.
- 10
Wrap the cocoa dough around the kabocha-filled kabocha dough and seal well.
- 11
Using your finger, press the center of the dough balls. With a knife, make 6 cuts into the dough from the top down to the sides, until you can slightly see the yellow dough underneath.
- 12
Place on a baking sheet, spritz water, and let rise for a second time (2nd proof) or 30 minutes. Once it's finished rising, the yellow dough should be more visible.
- 13
Preheat the oven to 360°F/180°C. Brush the surface of each ball with a beaten egg (not listed). Bake in oven for about 15 minutes, then they're ready to serve.
- 14
If you spread melted butter over the tops of the rolls when they're finished baking, they'll become shiny.

If you are using unsalted butter, then the same amount plus 0.1% will be sufficient.Please soften in the microwave if you are using uncooked pumpkin. I like boiled pumpkin so I often make it. I always have leftovers, so I decided to make bread. It doesn't bother me even if it is really rich (you wouldn't really know its pumpkin unless I told you). This is pumpkin-colored, but it doesn't taste much like pumpkin. Please enjoy the fluffy and soft texture of the bread.I think it's okay for the amount of pumpkin squash to vary a bit. Use warm and soft pumpkin squash ). The amount of milk I used was enough for me, but please adjust the amount according to the softness of the pumpkin squash. (The dough will soften if you add in margarine, so please keep that in mind and adjust the amount before adding in the margarine). My favorite way of making newspaper molds is listed in detail in Pekuchin's "Castella", so please refer to it. Recipe by SALASA -

Fluffy Kabocha Squash Bread Fluffy Kabocha Squash Bread
Since I love kabocha squash so much, I made fluffy and sweet kabocha bread!!Everyone loves this soft and sweet bread!! Use Bocchan Kabocha (mini-sized, sweet Japanese kabocha squash) for an even sweeter bread!The amount of liquid depends on the type of Kabocha squash. You can adjust it by reducing the amount of milk to 10 ml if the squash is very moist.Even though the squash might seem hard originally, it will gradually soften up and its juices will come out. Bocchan Kabocha (smaller, sweeter type of squash) would make this bread sweeter and give it a nicer color. Recipe by mzhroom -

I filled my usual kabocha bread with kabocha filling, and made it into a pumpkin shape for a Halloween flair. My children completely raved over them. When I took them out of the oven, they were given a ♪ "cute" ♪ rating. （＾－＾）This recipe uses a simple kabocha filling, but they're also tasty mixed with koshi-an or tsubu-an (puréed or coarsely mashed sweetened bean paste). Of course, even without the filling, these kabocha rolls come out nice and moist. I used milk for the glaze, but for a shinier finish, try brushing a beaten egg instead. This step is optional.
