(28 & 29 June 2017) 日式蒜香炒飯

20g dough each from the Kopitiam Milky Buns main dough
I kept these 2 mini doughs in the freezer, can keep up to 1 week.
Just take out and thaw, press to shape, spread tomato sauce, pizza toppings, bake at preheated oven of 180'C for 10mins.






Kopitiam Milk Bun茶室奶香面包
食谱参考:Vinnie老师和厨房找快乐
材料:
中种面团~
高筋面粉 214g
全脂牛奶 128g
酵母 2g

主面团~
高筋面粉 92g
全脂牛奶 12g (我用香兰汁,更香和有颜色)
蛋30g
速溶酵母 3g
盐5g(我只用1/8 茶匙 -给幼儿食用)
糖60g(我只用35g的有机蔗糖 - 给幼儿食用)
奶粉 12g
无盐奶油45g

面包机方法〜
1.混合“中种面团”的面粉,酵母和牛奶,用手揉搓5分钟。
2.在室温下发酵中种面团至少4-5小时,或保存在冰箱12-16小时(隔夜)。
3.将中种面团撕成一小块一小块,并和主面团的材料(除了无盐奶油)一起放进面包机的桶里,用Tesco面包机的功能8“面团”打20分钟。
4.然后加入无盐奶油继续打10-20分钟。
5.休息面团10分钟。然后分割40g的小团,滚圆后排放在抹上油的烤盘上。

今天我把面团分成3种:
1)9份 X 35克 (无馅料)
2) 8份 X 28克 (起司奶油馅)
3) 2份 X 20克 (迷你批撒底,收在冷冻库,一个星期内用完)


6. 发酵45分钟-1小时或双倍大。 (由于时间紧迫,我把烤盘放进烤箱,放一碗热水,关上门,让它发酵30分钟而已)
7. 在预热170'C的烘箱,烘烤15-20分钟或直到金黄色。


Kopitiam Milk Bun
Ingredients:
Sponge~
Bread Flour 214g
Full Cream Milk 128g
Instant Yeast 2g

Main Dough~
Bread Flour 92g
Full Cream Milk  12g ( I used pandan juice for better fragrance and color)
Egg 30g
Instant Yeast 3g
Salt 5g (I used only 1/8 tsp as for baby/toddler)
Sugar 60g (I used only 35g for baby/toddler)
Milk Powder 12g
Butter 45g

Bread maker Method~
1. Mix the "sponge" flour,yeast and milk, knead for 5 mins by hand.
2. Ferment the sponge dough at least 4-5 hours in room temperature or keep in fridge 12-16 hours (overnight).
3. Tear the sponge dough into pieces and mix together with the main dough ingredients except butter into the bread machine, beat by function 8 "dough" of Tesco breadmaker for 20mins.
4. Then add in butter continue beat another 10-20mins by the same function 8 "dough" again.
5. Rest dough for 10 mins. Then divide into 40g each.

Today I divided the dough into three kinds:
1) 9  X 35g (no filling)
2) 8 X 28g (cheese cream filling)
3) 2 X 20g (mini pizza base, keep in the freezer, use within a week)

6. Proof for 45mins-1 hour or until double size. ( I put into oven and place a bowl of hot water, close the door and let it proof for 30mins only) 
7. Bake at preheated oven of 170'C for 15-20 mins or until golden brown.

什麼是丙烯酰胺(Acrylamide)
丙烯酰胺是生產聚丙烯酰胺的原料。聚丙烯酰胺主要用於水的淨化處理、紙漿的加工及管道的內塗層等。澱粉類食品在高溫(120℃以上)烹調下容易產生丙烯酰胺。丙烯酰胺可見於吸煙、經高溫加工處理的澱粉食品及飲用水中。 2002年4月瑞典國家食品管理局和斯德哥爾摩大學研究人員率先報導,在一些油炸和燒烤的澱粉類食品中檢出丙烯酰胺,而且含量超過飲水中允許最大限量的500多倍。之後多國家也相繼報導了類似結果。

製作烤肉、醃肉易產生致癌物已不是稀奇之事,然而香港食物安全中心近日發表的《首個總膳食研究報告》卻稱,炒蔬菜也可能致癌。因為在高溫炒製的過程中,蔬菜中的氨基酸和還原糖發生美拉德反應,釋放出令人致癌的丙烯酰胺,且炒菜時間越長、溫度越高,釋放出的丙烯酰胺就越多。

油炸食物會致癌
2012年8月,美國《國家癌症研究雜誌》報導,炸薯條等油炸澱粉類食物會產生一種稱為丙烯酰胺的成分,可能會致癌。瑞典科學家也證實,炸薯條、炸洋芋片等高溫油炸或烘烤的澱粉類食物,含有大量丙烯酰胺,會增加多種癌症發病的風險。

根據目前各國提供的數據,富含丙烯酰胺的食品主要有炸薯條、炸薯片、爆玉米花、咖啡、餅乾、麵包、蛋糕、炸雞等等。另外,世界衛生組織對17個國家的調查發現,人體攝入的丙烯酰胺主要來源的食品為炸薯條16%~30%,炸薯片6%~46%,咖啡13%~39%,餅乾10%~20%,麵包10%~30%,其餘均小於10%。

熱鍋滾油炒蔬菜會致癌
2013年8月,香港食物安全中心發布的一份研究報告稱,在對肉類、蔬菜、豆類及麥製品等共133種食物進行檢測後發現,樣本中47%的食物含有可能令人致癌的丙烯酰胺,其中讓人大跌眼鏡的是蔬菜及其製品的丙烯酰胺含量排第二位,僅次於零​​食類食品。該中心又對22種蔬菜樣本進行測試,發現炒菜時間越長、溫度越高,蔬菜釋放出的丙烯酰胺就越多,加入食用油炒和乾炒的檢測結果無異。

在送檢的蔬菜中,西葫蘆高溫加熱後釋放出的丙烯酰胺最多,其次為大蒜、洋蔥,緊隨其後的是空心菜、燈籠椒、茄子、芥藍、絲瓜、西芹、芥菜,而生菜、菠菜、莧菜在炒製後釋放出的丙烯酰胺較少。

By Dr. Mercola

Acrylamide, a cancer-causing and potentially neurotoxic chemical, is created when carbohydrate-rich foods are cooked at high temperatures, whether baked, fried, roasted, grilled or toasted.

Some of the worst offenders include potato chips and French fries, but many foods cooked or processed at temperatures above 250 F/120 C may contain acrylamide.

As a general rule, the chemical is formed when food is heated enough to produce a fairly dry and brown/yellow surface … so if you're eating cooked foods that contain this characteristic, even if it was once a "healthy" natural food, like a sweet potato, it could be increasing your risk of cancer significantly.

WARNING: Some Potato Chips Contain Acrylamide in Levels 900 Times Over the Legal Limit

Acrylamide forms from a reaction between sugars and an amino acid (asparagine) during high-temperature cooking. While many foods – from coffee and breakfast cereal to bread – contain it, the highest levels have been detected in starchy plant-based foods, particularly French fries and potato chips. The federal limit for acrylamide in drinking water is 0.5 parts per billion, or about 0.12 micrograms in an eight-ounce glass of water.

However, a six-ounce serving of French fries can contain 60 micrograms of acrylamide, or about 500 times over the allowable limit.

Similarly, potato chips are notoriously high in this dangerous chemical. So high, in fact, that in 2005 the state of California actually sued potato chip makers for failing to warn California consumers about the health risks of acrylamide in their products. A settlement was reached in 2008 when Frito-Lay and several other potato chip makers agreed to reduce the acrylamide levels in their chips to 275 parts per billion (ppb) by 2011, which is low enough to avoid needing a cancer warning label.iii

Can You Reduce Your Exposure to Cancer-Causing Acrylamide?

Acrylamide levels vary greatly among processed foods, even among different batches of the same food item. The chemical has so far only been found in foods heated above 250 F/120 C, which includes most processed foods. Basing your diet on whole foods, with the majority or a significant portion eaten raw or only lightly cooked is therefore one of the best ways to avoid this cancer-causing cooking by product.

For the times when you do cook your food, here are some tips to keep in mind:
  • Frying, baking and broiling appear to be the worst offenders, while boiling or steaming appear to be much safer
  • Longer cooking times increase acrylamide, so the shorter the duration of cooking, the better
  • Soaking raw potatoes in water for 15-30 minutes prior to roasting may help reduce acrylamide formation during cooking
  • The darker brown the food, the more acrylamide it contains (for instance, dark brown toast compared to light brown toast)
  • Acrylamide is found primarily in plant-based foods, such as potatoes and grain products (not typically in meat, dairy or seafood)
  • In addition, the HEATOX scientists discovered that you're far less likely to ingest dangerous levels of the toxin when you eat home-cooked foods compared to industrially or restaurant-prepared foods. And when you do eat at home, the best advice they could give was to avoid overcooking your food.

from wikipedia
The yacón (Smallanthus sonchifolius, syn.: Polymnia edulis, P. sonchifolia) is a species of perennial daisy traditionally grown in the northern and central Andes from Colombia to northern Argentina for its crisp, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots. Their texture and flavour are very similar to jicama, mainly differing in that yacón has some slightly sweet, resinous, and floral (similar to violet) undertones to its flavour, probably due to the presence of inulin, which produces the sweet taste of the roots of elecampane, as well. Another name for yacón is Peruvian ground apple, possibly from the French name of potato, pomme de terre (ground apple). The tuber is composed mostly of water and fructooligosaccharide.

學名:Smallanthus sonchifolius
英文名稱:Yacon
產地:原產於南美洲的安地斯山脈.
功效: 塊根的部份 - 具有清肝解毒、整腸健胃、脂質改善的功能

「雪蓮薯」又名「菊薯」或「雪蓮果」,形狀酷似地瓜,味道卻像水梨一般甜脆。 為菊科多年生草本植物,原產於南美洲的安地斯山脈居民做為根莖類蔬菜食用,菊薯的塊根含有豐富的水份與果寡糖,嘗起來即甜又脆,也可以當做水果食用。
