Wholewheat/ Wholemeal Bread That Stay Soft For Days 不会变硬的全麦面包

This is another recipe that I have tried using Alex Goh's Flour Gelatinised Method. If you have tried his method, you would know how good it is...if you haven't, then try it now. This is the recipe I highly recommend!

This video shows the texture of the bread on day 5, without toasting or steaming the bread.

The bread that made with this method never turn hard, it will remain soft for at least 3-4 days. However, this wholewheat meal does not turn out super fluffy like the previous Japanese Sweet Loaf  and the Plain Sweet Loaf that I made using this method. But, it is very soft and fragrant and it stay soft as it is for days. No need to toast or warm it, thus it become my favourite food to pack in my boy's recess snack box that I prepared early in the morning and he simply loves it! 

Packed this for my boy to eat during his field trip ~ on school excursion.
