Hokkaido toast (direct method)

Hokkaido toast (direct method)

Overview

I make a lot of toast and am always trying new varieties. It wasn't until I made Hokkaido toast that I ended my attempts. I have also tried various methods in Hokkaido, including medium-sized, soup-type, blanched, and today's direct method. The softness is definitely no less than that of the medium-sized method. The taste is also great, and the texture is very delicate. For a foodie like me who insists on eating what he wants, the direct method is really tempting. You don't have to wait as long as the medium-sized method.
