Part 1: Forming the rolls and baking https://youtu.be/tmHqgmllWUs

First ingredients, in order

Notes

45 ml cooking oil 

Lam Soon’s Naturel Canola with omega 3

190 ml of whole milk (about 3/4 of a cup)

Any long life carton milk will do.

90 ml of water (about 3/8 of a cup)

Filtered tap water

3-5 ml of salt

I use sea salt.  More salt (5 ml) gives more flavour but inhibits the yeast so I use less.

35 ml brown sugar

I tend to use organic brown sugar.

25 ml of yeast

LeSaffre yeast

50 grams of rye flour

Organic rye flour from Germany, sourced from HOI. 

400 grams of high gluten white flour

I like the Singaporean unbleached bread flour from Prima Flour, sourced from Bake with Yen. 

First stir, then knead. Leave in the fridge overnight.

Paint your roll pan with cooking oil. 

Second ingredients, have ready

Notes

10 ml brown sugar 

 

30 ml of Made in Canada Nine Grain

The 9-grains are sourced from HOI. 

 Sprinkle in both of the ingredients and knead into the dough for about 3-5 minutes. Make 12 rolls 9 (or 20 small ones). Set your oven temperature to 190 C (equivalent to 375 F) Bake after the rolls have doubled in size. Baking time is about 20 minutes.

A Visit to Sungai Congkak- Part 1

Image
This was my first MNS outing since my retirement and since COVID.   For a long time we were restricted to trips of 10 km or less.  Now we can travel- so long as we remain within Selangor. Insiders refer to the Malaysian Nature Society as ‘makan non-stop.’   Hence, naturally, our meeting point was the Eng Soon Hoong coffee shop in Hulu Langat.   My review is here Five Stars for a Traditional Breakfast .   After breakfast we drove an additional 11 km to our destination.   Why didn’t we find a restaurant closer to our destination?    In the Islamic calendar it is the fasting month of Ramadan.   Accordingly, all the Malay restaurants are closed during sunlit hours; buka puasa begins at sunset. In Bahasa Malay (and on the Waze map) this location is Kem Latihan & Rekreasi Sungai Congkak.   For monolingual English readers ‘latihan’ is practice or training.   Also did you   notice that ‘ch’ is rendered as simply ‘c’ in Malay phonetics?    The English letter c is redundant; i have long

Black Giant Squirrel / Tupai Kerawak Hitam

Introduction Black giant squirrels are widely distributed- from Nepal to Vietnam and as far south as Java.  About 10 subspecies are presently recognised.  With further study, it is likely some subspecies may be promoted to full species status.  In that case, our squirrel would be officially become the Malayan giant squirrel. Momentarily frozen: a serpent-eagle was flying just 2 -3 metres above the canopy. How is a giant squirrel different from an ordinary squirrel?

A Water Feature - For the Birds?

Image
Like humans, birds enjoy taking a daily bath.  Bathing cleans their feathers and helps remove parasites.  After bathing the bird looks for a sunny perch, to fluff its feathers.  Finally, the bird preens carefully.  Birds have an oil gland at the base of their tail which is used during preening to add a protective coating to the feathers.  Screenshot from a short video Malaysia’s climate is equatorial, that is to say   hot, humid and rainy throughout the year with particularly heavy rainfall during the northeast and southwest monsoons.  In the rainforest there will be small puddles, streams, and pools below waterfalls.  However, in the city there can be a shortage of fresh, clean water.  Hence, a water feature in your garden will prove attractive to most birds.  What makes a good bird bath?  Experts say a good bird bath should mimic  a natural puddle.  It should not be too deep and, like our own swimming pools, there should be a shallow end.  Some sand or small stones can be used for
