Steps of Salmon Fillings

(1) Prepare a fried pan. Add some oil into the pan. Fried the half of salmon (60 g) until it is Medium-Well. Chop it into small pieces and then drizzle 1 tea spoon salt over the salmon. Stir it well

Steps of Assembly

(1) Half the dough. Roll it into a round shape. Spread 25 ml pesto sauce on the top.

(2) Place half of chopped onion, 1 ea chopped mushroom and chopped salmon over the top
(3) Drizzle 30~35 g pizza over the top
(4) Brush some water around the side. Send the pizza into the pre-heated oven at 200C/392F. Bake it around 30~35 minutes until the side turns golden and crispy.

 

Of course… Serve in HOT. The taste of pesto pizza is very different. Not like tomato or BBQ sauce as base, the taste is stronger than tomato or BBQ sauce. So, pesto is not used to moisturize the dough only. You can really taste pesto at every bite. I’ll share how to bake Pesto Salmon Roll tomorrow. Enjoy it.

Wholewheat Pesto Bread Roll

Pesto is not only used on pasta, but also lots of meals. Some people spread it on the bread. ME?! HaHa… I am quite lazy in the morning. I just want to eat bread directly… Also, spread on the top of bread? Is that too oil?! I have no idea... But, I think if pesto can be spread on the bread, it should be okay to be wrapped into the bread. Right?! I think it will make inside bread more moisture because the dough will absorb the pesto. So, let’s me try it.

 

Oven Temperature Setting: 200C/392F; Baking Time: 20 minutes

Recipe: 2 Wholewheat Pesto Bread Rolls

Steps

(1) Weight all ingredients well

(2) Place Wholewheat Flour, Plain Flour, Granulated Sugar and Salt into a big bowl. And then, stir a while.
(Selena’s Kitchen Talk: Every time I bake the bread, I will mix dry ingredients firstly. Salt will kill yeast if it touches to yeast directly )
(3) Add yeast into the mixture. Mix it.

(4) Then, add Hot Batter and 150ml milk into the bowl as well. Stir and mix into well until there is no flour.

(5) Move the dough ball into a lightly floured work space. And put butter on the dough. Then, start to knead it. 
(6) Add 30ml milk several times when you knead the dough into a smooth and elastic dough ball.
(7) Move it back to the lightly greased bowl. And brush some watch or milk on the surface of the dough ball. Wait around 1~2 hours until it doubles the size.

 

 

Steps of Assembly

(1) Move the dough to the table with light flour covered. Squeeze the air out. Divide it. Roll each half into a 30cm by 40 cm flat.

(2) Spread 15 ml pesto over the surface. Leave around 1 cm at one side. So, pesto will not spill to everywhere when rolling it.
(3) Drizzle 10g of pine nuts and sunflower seeds over the top

(4) Roll it up. Then, repeat step (1) to (4) for another dough.

(5) Leave there for the second grow-up around 40 ~ 60 minutes. Then, brush water over the top. Send it into the pre-heat 200C/392F for around 20 minutes.

 

WoW… WOW… It is so YUM… It is way over my expectation. Although it looks like a regular bread roll, you can smell very strong pesto when slice it. This can serve either in hot or cold. I like it a lot. I think this idea is quite similar like garlic bread, doesn’t it? Enjoy it.

Pesto Sauce

People know there are three main pasta sauces, tomato sauce, creamy cheese sauce and pesto sauce. These sauces represent three colors of the Italian flag, red, white, and green. Pesto and creamy cheese are my favorite pasta sauce. About pesto, I like the strong basil flavor with garlic flavor. When pesto sauce is covered around the spaghetti and you eat into your mouth, it is the best thing. Pesto sauce is very easy and quick that it only takes around 10 minutes. And then, you can use this pesto sauce to your cooking and baking.

 

 

 

Recipe: Serve 3 ~ 4 people

 

Steps of Pesto 

(1) Prepare all ingredients

(2) Place olive oil, basil leaves, garlic clove, pine nuts into a bowl. Blend them well by a kitchen blender.
(3) Add grated cheese, salt and black pepper. Well-incorporated them
(4) Preserve them in a clean jar in the fridge.

 

Is it easy and simple? Although people say it can last about few weeks in the fridge, I prefer to eat them in fresh. Look for a classic pasta sauce? Here you are.
