This week we’re showing you how to make Shokupan, otherwise known as Japanese Milk bread. The fluffiest, cloud like, white bread there is. Great for sandwiches, toasting and and making Honey Butter Toast (COMING TOMORROW!!!). It gets it’s infamous fluffy interior using a Tangzhong. We show you how to make this bread two ways, a classic rounded cloud like top, with a glaze, and a super square loaf.
