What is the Delicious Pandesal Recipe? That question has been boggling my mind since the pandemic. I love to bake! I tried baking cupcakes, chiffon, brownies, and cookies before. This time I encourage myself to bake this because it is my daughter’s favorite bread.

After months of planning to bake, I finally got a chance to do it. There are many recipes available online. You can watch several recipe videos and read blogs on how to bake or cook. I compare the recipes I found online until I end up with Chef’s RV’s recipe. Why? I found it doable and reliable seeing how he bakes it.
Because I have successfully baked a pandesal, I am now sharing it with you. I carefully write the step-by-step procedure on how to bake it based on Chef’s RV video.
While baking, I recall the yummy breads atFresh Treats at Harina Artisan Bakery Cafe,which I also blogged eight years ago. I love their pull-apart Italian loaf with basil puree and an assortment of melted cheese. I am thinking of baking that kind of loaf someday ahaha!
When baking you have to consider the oven and the available ingredients. For the ingredients, I am thankful that most of the ingredients can be bought online. I use delivery Apps such as Metromart and Puregold to buy groceries and most of my basic baking needs are available at Robinsons Supermarket. Sometimes there is a free delivery when there is a promo.
Which oven is better in baking? Is it the gas oven or the electric oven? It actually depends on your preference and usage. I prefer the electric convection oven. I have used the gas oven before, but to minimize the space and maximize the oven function, I switched to 3 in 1 convection and rotisserie Oven. This electric convection oven is a table oven type. It is convenient to bake when the oven is on the table.
For the bread crumbs, I make my own bread crumbs. I use a bread loaf like the gardenia loaf bread. To make bread crumbs, simply bake loaf at 100 degrees Celsius for 35 to 40 minutes. Turn sides when golden brown or lightly brown. Let cool then grind. I use a food processor to easily grind the crumbs.

Grease some margarine or butter on the kneading table and on your hand before kneading to prevent the dough from sticking to the table and your hand.
