Sandwich Bread
This afternoon i decided to make sandwich bread , the dough was also called milk dough , other ingredients are pretty much normal , in your pantry ingredients . It turns out really good as home made bread usually are , better than store bought obviously it’s chemical free , since there is no preservatives in the bread itself . I also used honey instead of sugar , the bread turns out really delicious ! This might take a little time to make , but really it’s not bad at all , consider it a good workout for your hand if you don’t use the mixer . You can always…

Southern Biscuit and Gravy
Home made buttermilk biscuit surprisingly isn’t hard to make ., esp, with the help of food processor , it’s so much easier to make this flaky biscuit . I made the biscuit along with the gravy and served with the sausage . No special tools is required to make the biscuit , if you don’t have food processor , you still can make this . You just have to work a lot quicker so that the butter won’t melt because of using hands , that is obviously warm in temperature . With food processor , we don’t have to touch the butter and mix the dough other than shaping and…

Sticky Rice with chicken filling , called as Lemper Ayam is a traditional snack in Indonesia . I remember me and my mom walked to the market and stopped by after grocery shopping to buy this snack . This was her favorite , wasn’t so much for me . She really liked this , it was all wrapped up in green banana leaves .

Even my mom never made lemper ayam herself , she…
