I’m not known to be bread baker, probably because I am known to be impatient. Bread is Wolf’s department. But I had an urge and a big bag of all purpose flour and nothing better to do on a Sunday. So here’s my Pao Doce using Pao Doce recipe #2 in the Buddhist Church cookbook. With 1 c. of sugar in recipe w/ about 4 1/2 c. of flour, it’s nowhere near as sweet (or tender) as King’s Hawaiian bread. Closer to the bread we had from Punalu’u Bake Shop on the Big Island.
I couldn’t document the whole process because this happened in the midst of mixing the dough. Needless to say, mixing the dough is the easy part. It’s the two rises that make it time consuming. So what happened to Winston? I think he had a yellow jacket join him for breakfast. Luckily our vet is open on Sundays and advised getting him some Benadryl, which worked like a charm. We didn’t even have to go in for a shot.

>Glad Winston was okay! The bread looks amazing. Too bad I'm trying to cut back on carbs. :-(
