I have been assured that this is an authentic bibimbap recipe, but it’s basically a dish made with leftovers that you have in your (Korean) refrigerator, so it can be made in 100 different ways. Many of the vegetable options that I make in this recipe and common, so you will get a good and varied dish.

It is the softest, most fluffy bread made with wheat flour you will ever try. It’s not brioche bread because there is no butter in the recipe. So to enrich the dough, we add egg and whipping cream. That will help with flavor and retain the moisture in the bread. This is my recipe for Hokkaido milk bread.

This bread is known by many names: Japanese milk bread, Asian milk bread, Shokupan, Pai Bao, and Tangzhong milk bread. Whatever the name, this is the best and most fluffy bread you will ever make.
