Rice Wine Cheese Sandwich Bread
Overview
This bread uses the Zhongzhong method, and Zhongzhong uses home-brewed red yeast rice wine as the fermentation starter. Because red yeast rice wine contains natural red yeast rice and is red in color, the bread is also red. The cheese is also homemade and has a natural milky aroma. It contains absolutely zero additives and is a healthy and delicious bread.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Homemade red yeast rice wine works well in making dough. Take the required amount
-
Add 180 grams of flour and make a thick paste
-
Ferment naturally until the volume swells to 2 times, and you can see a lot of bubbles when you peel it off. The medium-sized seeds are fermented.
-
Put the remaining flour into the bread bucket, pour in all the fermented Chinese seeds, eggs, rock sugar powder, and salt
-
Start the dough mixing process and add softened butter after ten minutes
-
A dough kneading process is completed. I use the Petrus 9500. It takes 30 minutes to complete the dough kneading process. After a program is completed, the dough has just reached the expansion stage
-
Thin and flexible glove membrane can be pulled out
-
It is still fermented naturally until it doubles in size. If you poke it with your finger and there is a pit that does not bounce back, the second fermentation of the dough is complete.
-
Deflate the fermented dough, then cover with plastic wrap and rest for 10-15 minutes.
-
Cut the homemade cheese into slices as needed. My homemade cheese is original, so I added a little more rock sugar powder on top
-
Press another piece of cheese on top of the cheese piece with powdered sugar
-
Roll out the rested dough and add a piece of cheese
-
Wrap it tightly and put it into the mold with the seam facing down
-
I always made different shapes according to my own molds. The braided one in the middle did not have cheese sandwiched in it, and the others were filled with fillings
-
The shaped bread dough is put into the oven, add a little water to moisturize it, then keep it at 37 degrees, let it ferment until it is about doubled in size, and brush the surface with egg wash
-
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees, then bake in the oven for 17 minutes
-
The baked bread is cut open and the bread is red. It has two layers because of the cheese and sugar
-
The heart-shaped slice is cut horizontally, and there is a big piece of cheese inside. When you bite into it, the aroma of the bread is mixed with the aroma of cheese, and you will be satisfied after eating it.
