This Japanese style milk bread loaf is made by using discard sourdough starter and sweet potato puree. Soft, fluffy and pull-apart bread with an earthy flavour. You must try it!

SWEET POTATO SOURDOUGH JAPANESE MILK BREAD

Ever since I start making my own sourdough starter, I always search for new ideas to utilise the discard starter without waste. This recipe made a traditional soft, light and fluffy Japanese milk bread without using the water roux method. I love Tangzhong/water roux bread!! But since I have the discard sourdough starter handy, I replaced it with water roux. It works well and still give the bread a very light and airy texture with an addition of the earthy flavour from the sweet potato.
