Melon bread


Today, on my day off, I made this bread which is very popular in Japan known as Melon pan. Baking on my day off is so relaxing for me, no need to be in a hurry, no yelling, no worries. This is one of favorite bread at the same time. I remember growing up eating these guys ever since I can remember. Immediately, I took them out of the oven and smell the bread, when I took a first bite, so many memories came right back to my head so vividly. Memory associated with food is so strong anyone can even remember the small details when aroma and/or taste triggers your sense. For example with me and melon pan, I remember going to bakery after school with my mom and sister before going to grocery stores and getting few of melon pans. Memories, maybe that's one of the key ingredients in every delicious meal.
