Keep Moving

Some of you may have noticed the long break we took. Since December of 2021, from New Year's and the Omicron surge last January 2022, it became a challenge for us to go back to the market. The constant change of schedule, the adjustments needed to be made with online schooling and the preparation of going hybrid for work made it difficult for us to manage, until the Greenhills Weekend Market met its own challenges and eventually closed down.

We were taking few orders online from our weekly clients from the market but we did not go full on as we might not meet demand with our schedule. On top of that, we had some health issues we attended to as well. It was only this May when we sort of, got back on track.

We are currently looking into joining a nearby weekend market so we can push for the expansion of our humble bakery business.

Making bread has been the epitome in our family to be always at our best because we serve other people. With that, we are always 100% in everything we prepare. Mistakes are welcome for improvement, but to fail is something we want to avoid.

Thank you for always checking with us, it really means a lot...

Brioche Fest

 

2 Months Hiatus

Hi everyone! it has been exactly 2 months since we last participated at the Greenhills Weekend Market, and if you noticed, within the same timeline, we also stopped getting orders online. 

Here's the story:

It started middle of July when the Mr. was called for his first dose of Covid- 19 vaccine. As expected, he felt some side effects and had to rest. The following week, the Mrs. got her first jab as well and the scheduled appointment fell on a Saturday. You see, the people behind Frank & Mike's Bakery are the very same faces you see at the market every Saturday. Frank & Mike's Bakery is literally a family business.😅 It's quite challenging, but we are still grateful to be able to establish and run a small business during this difficult time. 

Anyway, there were other reasons why we were not able to go back to the market. One was because of the inclement weather that followed. Then, the ECQ, the entry of the Delta variant and and the rise of Covid- 19 cases.  Within the past 2 months we also got our 2nd dose of the Covid- 19 vaccine. So yes, we are fully- vaccinated under the A4 catergory.👍

It was just one thing over the other that we decided to take the opportunity to rest and get the much needed break, gather our thoughts and of course, so we can smoothly move forward once we open the bakery again.

Frank & Mike's Bakery will open soon with a simplified menu. We will start posting updates and hope to see you at the market on our return.😀

 Please stand by...

Frank & Mike's Soft Pandesal

We finally have the most sought after Filipino bread roll "Classic Pandesal" on the menu. It took quite awhile for us because this particular bread is available for anyone and anywhere in the country. It is often associated to our typical, local panaderia or bread shop which is found in almost every street in every town.

Since Frank & Mike's Bakery has been about what we love as a family, we decided to add Pandesal on our menu of specialty breads but we leveled it up a notch. No there's no ube or cheese, but the F&M Classic Pandesal is enriched with more premium bread ingredients to make it natural as it remains soft, fluffy but not airy. 

It takes us some time to come up with a new kind of bread product because we study everything down to the simplest recipe, it is a process we don't want to play around with. As mentioned in the previous blogs, we don't use additives and commercialize ingredients, and we want to be consistent with every bread we make.

A lady once asked why our pandesal look different,  The Frank & Mike's pandesal is made extraordinary because it is weighed according to how we like our bread if we're to buy it, at least at 55g each roll. 

Yes, you can buy a piece of pandesal from a local bread shop for just 2.50php each, but it's all air and it becomes hard a day after. Not to forget, it gets moldy in less than a week.

The Frank & Mike's Pandesal remains soft and fluffy up to a week if stored properly. We recommend transferring your bread in an airtight container and keep out of direct sunlight. If it's in a bag, refrigerate. It's more delicious if you toast our pandesal fresh in the morning even if it's a 3- day old bread.👍

Choconana Ganache

With the booming amount of banana bread sellers online, we're proud to say that we have been doing this for 7 years. We are confident that if not the first, we are "one of the first" to release this product--- Banana Cake with Chocolate Ganache--- CHOCONANA GANACHE

We needed to put it out there to credit the beginnings of our humble bakery. It all started with our Classic Banana Cake that was later on enriched with our decadent chocolate ganache. Why ganache? because our kids love it! We love it!

Since then, this has been the most requested item from our list. To be honest, we did a lot of experimentation with our classic banana cake to make it more appealing and appetizing, but we never changed anything with our Choconana Ganache. The amount of ganache oozing in every slice, mixing with the natural flavor of the banana came out perfectly. 

Commonly, well for some, they would pour and cover the whole cake with icing, or ganache for this matter. In our case, we don't want to overpower flavors so balance is key when it comes to toppings. Some like it sweet, but not too sweet. Some like it plain, searching not only for the chocolate, but the original banana flavor or the taste of the cake itself.

Our Story

In the end, this was created because of the trust we have given ourselves, that we can come up with something our own, hence, Choconana Ganache. It is how much effort you put on being original and transforming simple things as your own that matters.

Greenhills Weekend Market day 2

 

Grab your fresh produce and visit us at the Greenhills Weekend Market from 6am up to 1pm on March 13, 2021, this coming Saturday.

 

Get your freshly baked bread and cake loaves only at 150php!

Understanding Our Bread

We had an inquiry sometime in February and was asked how much were our bread loaves. We gave our menu and our terms, but the person found our price high which was 160php each,  at 600g per loaf . 

We gladly accepted her feedback and reaction, and that inquiry became an opportunity for us to come up with a post to further show the kind of bread we make. Like coffee, there's instant coffee and there's freshly brewed. Same idea with bread. 

We need to get the difference between commercial bread and artisanal bread out there so people will have an idea what they're looking at and to give understanding why artisan breads are priced in such way. 

We consider our bread collection under Artisan because the ingredients we use are properly selected.

We choose quality. 

We knead and shape it with our clean, bare hands. 

We only make the bread on the day of pick- up or delivery. 

Aside from the basic bread ingredients, it is healthier because it's free from additives, hence a shorter shelf life. 

There's a personal touch to it because we made a common bread our own by redefining its shape and texture. Enhancing a flavor through the natural component of an ingredient like the sweetness of raisins.

The softness and freshness of the bread is maintained through proper storage once it's purchased and opened. Based on our observation, our bread loaves maintain its soft texture up to one week if sealed. But ideally, a person who likes bread in the morning and for snacks can consume it in less than a week. Yes, it's that good if you know your bread.😀

Brioche French Toast

We made the recipe, did a lot of adjustments and had a fair amount of fails. We went back to reading an old library of recipe books and compared recipes. Whatever we have now is surely an achievement. There is a sense of accomplishment in being able to create something. Even with no proper schooling in bread making,  we tried our best to learn and followed our instincts as consumers. What we want in bread if we're to buy it and what is healthy for the family.

Food Affirmation #1

Pininyahang Adobong Manok

Original recipe from: Life Gets Better Del Monte Kitchenomics

The only thing I made to make my finished product land according to my preference, was instead of marinating the chicken, with a few adjustments on the measurements but still with the same ingredients:

•  I first cooked the chicken like a typical Adobo, then fried it. 
• Added the remaining sauce, pineapple tidbits and then topped it with additional red bell pepper for color and added flavor.

4 cloves garlic (minced)

2 tablespoons red cane vinegar

1/2 cup soy sauce

1 cup water

1/4 teaspoon granulated black pepper

reserved pineapple syrup (equivalent to 2 small pouches) 

Peppered Pork Belly

If it weren't for a friend who asked for the recipe of this dish, I wouldn't be posting anything at all. So thanks! It's about time I update and post a recipe on this blog.

The story behind this pork dish goes around with my love for scallions or onion leeks. Recently, I've replaced the usual onion toppings with these attractive green vegetable.

 I love to top any of my prepared Filipino stews with fresh and finely chopped scallions. For some reason it enhances the food itself, makes it more delicious. Plus, the green garnish on top makes it even more enticing to eat.

The recipe will flow with my version of Teriyaki sauce minus the sesame seeds and the Japanese condiments. It will be sweet, peppery and the hint of ginger will make its taste like any Asian cuisine.

Yield: 3-4

Ingredients:

• 1/2 kilo of thinly slice pork belly (Menudo cut for Pinoys)
• 4 cloves of garlic (minced)
• 1 medium red onion (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon of chopped ginger 
• 2 stalks of onion leeks thinly chopped
• 2 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper granules
• 1 medium bell pepper
• a handful of chicharo or chickpea
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil

Procedure:

• In a sauce pan, heat cooking oil.
• Saute onions, garlic until translucent.
• Add ginger and stir for a few seconds.
• Add pork belly and turn heat or fire to medium and stir until the meat is half- cooked.
• Add black pepper, soy sauce, honey, water and simmer until pork is cooked.
• Add vegetables (bell pepper and chickpeas) and oyster sauce.
• Simmer in low fire until vegetables are half- cooked.
• Transfer in serving platter.
• Garnish with onion leeks.

Note: You can add cornstarch to thicken the sauce and add roasted sesame seeds.

Tip: If you have sake/ mirin or white wine, add 1-2 tablespoons and you'll have a Teriyaki sauce.

Enjoy!

Popcorn Makeover

Like potato chips, popcorn has given us that "it" factor when it comes to munchies especially partnered while watching flicks. At home, one of our family past times is watching movies and television series. We always have popcorn on stock just for weekend movie nights and even game nights. It's light and at the same time you get to control the flavor you like. My husband like it plain and salted. But on a personal note, I'm not a fan of plain popcorn, I've always wanted mine buttered or flavoured. 

Popcorn is easy to eat and it is available all the time. Yet, the ways it's served is very limited. So let me share my thoughts on how to enhance popcorn to make it more enjoyable to eat. What I came up with is very simple. My only basis are the ff:

1. It should not be messy to eat.

2. Availability of basic ingredients at home.

3. A healthy side to it.

After popping some in the microwave, I placed my popcorn in a clean, dry bowl. Top your  popcorn with the following ingredients:

• 1- 2tablespoons of olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese mixed with garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon of chopped scallions/ spring onions
• 1/2 teaspoon grated black pepper

Other options:
cayenne
paprika
melted butter
sour cream

Check out these flavors from SkinnyPop

Top it all and spread it out well. No need to mix. The olive oil will do its job by sticking to the rest of the dry ingredients, it won't be messy. As you dig in the bowl,  the ingredients will blend accordingly.

From Canned Fish to Glammed

As a homemaker, one of the things that is so important to me is to serve good, healthy food all the time.  But it doesn't often go our way right? There will be times when we want to rest so we buy food to go or we open a can or two.

Let me focus on how to make processed food more inviting to eat, particularly canned products. Personally, I love packing on sardines, Spanish- style sardines to be exact. My kids love it and I serve it for breakfast paired with hot rice.

I always assume that anything processed outside my kitchen is a risk. Though canned products follow a certain standard when it comes to preparing down to canning, still, just the idea that I don't see how they prepare these products makes me more meticulous. In order to meet the thought of making sure that what I serve my family is okay, I cook these canned products like any dish made from scratch. Believe me, it will taste better and somewhat being able to create your own out of some random sardine can is fun.

I brought life to this canned Spanish- style sardines by:

• Sauteing minced ginger, freshly- pressed garlic, red tomatoes and onions in olive oil. 
• Let it cook for a few seconds until the juice from the tomatoes comes out.
• Drain half of the oil from the canned sardines. Best to replace that oil with olive oil.
• Pour the sardines with the sauteed ingredients and mix everything well.
• Add black pepper and simmer for a few seconds.
• Serve!

I also use this very same dish for pasta drizzled with Parmesan cheese.

The Cheesecake Factory

Father's Day 2016 was extra special because my husband celebrated it with us and our dear ones in America. We arrived in Atlanta a day before Father's Day. Even with jet lag and with much excitement, we welcomed this special day with lunch at The Cheesecake Factory.

I've never tried anything from The Cheesecake Factory even though I see some of their pastries in S&R. I've always thought that it was all about cheesecakes and pastries, but I was surprised when I saw the menu. It was the perfect place to celebrate my husband's first Father's Day in America.

The Cheesecake Factory offers a fine dining appeal for customers ordering scrumptious dishes from their menu and they also have a bar for those who just want to have a drink or two. The ambiance of the whole restaurant is family- friendly and caters large groups especially those on tour. We're glad the queue wasn't that long considering that it was a weekend, there's an occasion and it's lunchtime. We were welcomed with a warm greeting and seated in a cozy corner of the restaurant.

Our food went around with orders of Filet Mignon, Grilled Rib- Eye Steak, Fettuccini Alfredo, Spaghetti and Meat Balls and tall glasses of sweet tea (not pictured).

My Shrimp and Chicken Gumbo

Orange Chicken

All served in satisfying big portions.

Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake for dessert.

My main dish (Shrimp and Chicken Gumbo) is a house specialty. It's always best to try house specialties when in a new restaurant. It was also my first time to try Godiva's  Chocolate Cheesecake and so far, the richest I've tasted.

The Keurig Corner

 A coffee machine and a coffee corner are the ones missing in our new home. I've searched for nice, affordable coffee makers but most of the time I end up with nothing because some are too expensive, some are too "complicated" in terms of maintenance, and others may be cheap but the taste and the availability of the capsules are compromised and difficult to find.

With our recent trip to America, one of the travel finds we made was a Keurig coffee machine. It's in every household we've visited. We stayed in the US for months and making coffee with my mom-in-law's Keurig was enough to say that it's worth our humble coffee corner. It didn't end there. Once we've decided that it's the machine we wanted, we needed to look for the right Keurig model with the best deal. From Walmart to Target and even Kroger all 3 had their own offers, but it was Costco that gave us the best option.

For $99 we got the ff: (sale price in Lazada: 17,000php updated 9/2018)

Keurig 2.0 K525C Plus Series

12 K-Cup pods Variety Pack

K- Cup reusable coffee filter (which we intend to use for our Kape Barako)

Water filter

We take that it was meant for us because with the no. of times we've been to Costco, it was only when we were about to leave for Manila that this Keurig model was made available, and without hesitation, we took it.

Finally, a coffee corner.

Coffee Wood Decor (Hobby Lobby)

The K- Cups was in our list of concerns when we got the Keurig. Aside from the reusable coffee filter that came with the machine, we made sure we have enough K- Cups. Aside from that, we discovered stores like S&R sell K- Cups.

I personally found Keurig as the most flexible coffee machine. It's affordable and at the same time, it can make your cuppa moment extraordinary with the wide variety of K-Cups both for coffee and tea. Most of the capsules contain fresh ground coffee. (see: http://coffeegearathome.com/is-keurig-instant-coffee-heres-whats-inside-your-k-cup/ ) I like the breakfast blend (any brand) then I mix it with a little cocoa, sugar and frothed milk. Plus, freshly brewed Tazo Peach Black tea.

I'm not a hardcore coffee drinker, a cup or two makes me happy. For me, having a coffee corner whether you're a coffee lover or not is a must in every household, at least something to serve your guests. Nowadays, coffee plays a big part in ones daily grind. A coffee break with co-workers, a relaxing and cozy afternoon with friends and just for the simple reason it completes us both inside and out.

Learn Something New and Have Fun by Taking up a New Hobby

The Internet has made it so easy for people to learn how to do something new. In the past, a person would have to get many books from a library, take classes, or talk to an expert in order to learn how to do something new. Nowadays, a person can simply sit in their living room while using their laptop and search for videos on how to learn a new hobby. They will be able to get expert advice as well as many tips and suggestions on how to learn how to do something new. Learning a new hobby is a great way to have some fun.

One thing that has been of interest to many people is learning how to do woodworking. One of the first things that may have made them interested in woodworking is making pallet furniture. Individuals who had absolutely no woodworking experience have been able to look at videos online and learn how to take apart pallets, clean up the wood, and then make beautiful and interesting pieces of furniture. Thanks to the Internet and the many how-to videos that have been posted there, they have learned a completely new skill and found something that they enjoy doing.

The same thing is true when it comes to working with metal. There are so many videos that teach beginners how to work with metal. Metalworking can be something small like making jewelry or pens and then go all the way up to making large pieces of decorative metal items. It is also easy to purchase tools for metal cutting, including carbide inserts for example, online. Even if a person lives in a small town or in an area that does not allow them to have a lot of access to metalworking tools, the Internet allows them to search for tools they need and then have them shipped to their home in just a matter of days.

When it comes to learning how to do something new, your imagination is the limit. You can find things online about how to crochet, how to knit, how to work with wood, how to cook, and how to do many new things. You could build a boat, build a tiny house, do nail art, and much more. You just need a little bit of patience in order to learn how to do something new and then you have to practice.

Homemade Ice Cream

In connection with my new KitchenAid Stand Mixer, I got a free KitchenAid Ice Cream maker worth 8,000php. I think I got a pretty good deal in terms of getting freebies from KitchenAid for every KitchenAid mixer.

Here's one of the best things I made from my kitchen--- Ice Cream!

KitchenAid made everything easy with their KitchenAid Mixer, you can basically connect any KitchenAid attachment using the very same machine and that includes an ice cream maker. Again, I never thought that I'll be making ice cream on a regular basis at home. A lot of ice cream recipes are featured online and you can watch demos on Youtube as well. Being a chocoholic, of course, Chocolate Ice Cream was first in my list to try.

In order to achieve a good result, I watched demos online on how to attach and use the KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker first. I suggest you do the same. After securing myself of the how tos of the machine, I immediately searched for ice cream recipes with actual demo using the featured KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker.

With a good equipment at hand, making ice cream was easy. The KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker is just right for the size, it's not too big or bulky. To describe, it's a bit smaller than a 5qt. mixing bowl.

My children are always excited... I mean, isn't it fun just to have the thought that we can make ice cream anytime? Experiment with flavors and ice cream container sizes. We can go unlimited even. The last thing I enjoyed making with my children was a banana split using homemade ice cream. 

Fresh bananas, rich chocolate ice cream, oozing whipped cream and dark chocolate ganache, nuts and caramel to top... who can say no to that!

Make Your Living Space Your Own

You love your home and you wouldn't trade it for anyplace else in the world. You might have some changes you want to make or some features that you really admire in other homes. That doesn't mean you have to contact a real estate agent to get what you want. You can transform your living space into exactly what you want with a home renovation project. Whether you have outgrown your existing space and need to put on a new room or you want the bathroom of your dreams, the possibilities are endless. You simply need to think about where you want to begin.

Prioritize

 

Think about what you want out of your home. You may want to freshen up your kitchen or put a deck on the back. Maybe it's time to take that unused spare room and turn it into a home office. Make a wish list of improvements for your home. The next step is to consider your budget. You may not be able to do everything at once. If you must be choosy, think about the changes that you want to see the most. You can always take on other improvements in the future.

Find the Right Person to Do the Job

One of the biggest mistakes that homeowners make is trying to do their own remodeling jobs. Even if you, your friends, or your family actually know what to do, time is always a factor. You want someone who can be completely dedicated to completing your project in a reasonable time frame. When you turn to people you know or family members, you may run into trouble. Your best bet is to find a contractor who is a good fit for your home improvement plans.

Cut Down on Your Options

You'll be on the way to improving your home sweet home.

KitchenAid Heavy Duty Stand Mixer K5SS

When I started baking, I thought that it will just be an additional hobby, a past time. Since I love to cook, baking came with a breeze. I gotta say, quite an achievement for someone who did not study baking at all. But in everything that involves the kitchen, one must have a good equipment to aid you to be more efficient and to be able to get better results. I am already happy with my Homemaker Stand Mixer but at some point, knowing that I bake a lot, I don't want to over use my only and the very first mixer I have. Other than that, my husband offered that he'll help me start up a small business so I can share my creations. 

Share... sharing is a strong word. To be honest, everytime I would bake something, I always make a little more so that my husband can bring some for his co- workers. Not to sell but just to share, since their working hours are intense. In the end, those same people who had a piece of what I make later  encouraged us to sell the pastries so we earn something instead of giving it out.  So eventually I agreed and created a pastry that's not often sold in the market and it became a hit. From then on, and as we reached the Christmas Season, I decided to upgrade to a more suitable mixer in order to meet  demand and also preserve the old one.

 

What else will I get but a KitchenAid Mixer. The choice went around an Artisan and the Heavy Duty Stand Mixer K5SS mixer. I ended up with the Heavy Duty Stand Mixer K5SS mixer (at 33kphp) because of its functions and simply because it is in the Professional Heavy Duty Series, a more powerful batch more than the Artisan and Classic KitchenAid mixers. So if you're in search of a good mixer that's not too expensive yet, powerful, this is the one.

The set includes:
Powerknead™ Spiral Dough Hook, Flat Beater, and
Stainless Steel Wire Whip
5-Qt.

Actually I was torn between the Artisan and the Heavy Duty. I like the Artisan because of its color choices and it comes with a pouring shield. But I don't really need those. It's really all about the bang for the buck thing. As expected a freebie came with my purchase. I guess it was meant to be because I got the best deal. I got a free KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker worth 8Kphp! 

I'll post about it soon!

It's about time that I made this upgrade. Whether my humble business will be a success or not, this mixer will make people happy through my pastries given or bought from us. I don't spend so much on my personal needs, but for every gift I give myself, there will surely be a story behind it and why it's worth it.

Three Fun Food Businesses You Can Start from Home

Food Network is one of the most popular television stations in the United States today. Even if you don't watch that network, you might come across shows like Hell's Kitchen or Top Chef that show professional and amateur chefs competing for big prizes. If you keep watching those shows and thinking about how you could make better dishes, now might be the right time to start your own food business. There are some great business ideas that require a small investment upfront and help you make big money.

Create a Brand

Creating a brand around your food is a great way to make some extra cash, especially if you have a few recipes that others love. No matter where you live, the odds are good that there are flea markets and farmers markets that have space available for sellers like you. You can sell products that your customers can use at home, including spaghetti sauce or salsa, but you can also sell prepared items that they can eat while wandering around the market like pulled pork sandwiches or cupcakes. Check with your state regarding the rules you need to follow to sell food products made at home.

Become a Cart Seller

You can also make money setting up a food cart in your city or at special events like car shows. Some owners of food carts even go directly to local businesses and sell food to employees on their lunch breaks. With ice cream carts, you can purchase packages or ice cream or make your own ice cream and sell cones and dishes to customers. Other carts let you sell hot dogs, sandwiches and other foods. Unlike food trucks that are often large and bulky, food carts are easier to handle.

Develop Your Own Blog

If you love the idea of starting a food business but have limited funds and time, you can create your own blog. Take clear photos of all the dishes that you prepare at home, post those photos on your blog and give detailed instructions on how readers can whip up those dishes themselves. Once your blog becomes more successful, you can reach out to advertisers, sell products through affiliate programs and even sell e-books that feature some of your top recipes. No matter how much time, money or even experience you have, you can find a food business right for you.
