With just a few simple ingredients and straightforward steps, you can enjoy fresh, homemade Japanese milk bread that’s perfect for sandwiches, toast, and more.

Originating in Japan during the 20th century, milk bread is a type of white bread that’s also known as ‘shokupan, ’ or ‘eating bread.’ Hokkaido milk bread, in particular, is a popular variation.

Shokupan: The Most Delicious Japanese Milk Bread You Need To Try • Just One Cookbook

This type of white bread is widely enjoyed as an everyday staple in Japan, Korea, and other Asian countries. Its soft and fluffy texture is achieved through the use of a tangzhong, which is a paste made by cooking flour in water or milk.

While many milk bread recipes use the tangzhong method, there are also variations that don’t require it. Typically, the bread dough is made with flour, sugar, milk, yeast, egg, salt, and butter. The end result is a tender, soft bread with a fluffy texture.

Easy

Asian style bread is very popular these days and you will find them easily in a Korean bakery or other Asian bakeries. Both avid and beginner home bakers are searching for an ultimate recipe for this Japanese milk bread and there are quite many out there.

If you’re a fan of this feathery soft white bread, you might have some questions about the recipe. Here are some frequently asked questions and answers to help you make the perfect loaf every time:

Japanese Milk Bread Rolls (hokkaido/snow Bread)

Yes, but it’s highly recommended to add dry milk to the recipe. It provides a smoother and more mellow flavor and helps the bread to have a more tender texture and a significantly higher rise.

Of course! You can use any 9×5 inch loaf pan instead of the pullman loaf pan. However, you won’t get the straight sides that are typically seen in traditional Japanese milk bread.

Milk

Absolutely! Just follow the recipe and mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. However, because each bread machine is different, you may need to adjust the recipe to suit your situation.

Milk Bread: Easiest Method!

The size of the pan in the bread machine can vary, so the bread can come out less tall in wider pans or taller in smaller pans depending on the size of your pan. This recipe will fit a 1 lb dough size pan.

It has a milky-sweet and buttery taste. Its feathery, soft texture tears into fine strands and melts in your mouth. Good milk bread shouldn’t have naturally leavened holes or a sourdough tang.

A Pullman loaf pan has straight sides and a sliding lid that’s great for making bread with a square shape and professional-looking appearance. The pan helps the bread bake evenly and prevents the crust from becoming too thick. While most pullman pans come with a lid for compact bread, some bakers prefer not to use it to get round mounds on top.

Korean Style Buttercream Bread

Mix milk, cream, sugar, egg, yeast, dry milk powder, yeast, and sugar with a wooden spoon. Then add flour and mix well.

If using a stand mixer, attach dough hook and knead the dough on low (stir mode) setting for 12-15 minutes. The dough will be very sticky. Add extra 2-3 tablespoons of flour if needed. Resist adding too much flour. Otherwise you won’t obtain the fluffy texture.

If kneading by hand, it will take about 6-8 minutes until the dough becomes soft and elastic, and won’t stick to you hands.

Korean Street Toast Sandwich (korean Breakfast Sandwich)

Shape into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover and let it rise in a warm place until double in volume; about 1 hr.

Divide the dough into 3 equal portions. Roll each dough into a ball shape and let them rest for 15 minutes to relax the gluten.

Brush the top with egg wash to achieve a beautiful golden brown crust. Bake in a preheated 350˚F oven for 22-25 minutes. If the top gets brown too quickly, tent with a piece of foil loosely.

Korean Cream Cheese Garlic Bread (egg Free)

Recipe Tip: When the bread comes out of oven, give it a strong tap once on a counter top. That will prevent the soft crust from sagging down and wrinkle. Brush with melted butter immediately to get the shiny look. Take the bread out of pan and let it cool on a wired rack.

This milk bread recipe yields a soft and fluffy loaf without the extra step of making tangzhong. With just a few simple ingredients and straightforward steps, you can enjoy fresh, homemade Japanese milk bread that's perfect for sandwiches.

Milk bread can stay fresh up to 3 days. It makes a great breakfast toast. You can also  freeze it up to 3 months. To thaw, let it sit on a room temperature while you are preheating the oven to 300˚F. Warm the bread in the oven for 8-10 minutes.
