Melon bread is a popular item that is always lined up in the bread corner even at convenience stores. Of course, ready-made products are delicious, but how happy would you be if you could eat freshly baked products at home?
I found a product that would make such a wish come true ...! "Frozen melon bread" sold at Tomizawa Shoten. The editorial department, who tasted it with
KALDI's frozen croissants , immediately tried it,
and the melon bread was horribly serious !

● Just leave it at room temperature and bake
Melon bread seeds made by layering biscuit dough with melon juice on bread dough and freezing it as it is. It costs 356 yen (tax included, same below) for 3 pieces.
To make it, just leave it at room temperature (thaw and ferment) and bake it in the microwave. You don't need flour or eggs.
First, lay a cooking sheet on the top plate and arrange the dough at intervals. Wrap it to prevent it from drying, and leave it at room temperature for less than an hour to thaw it.
Be careful as the dough will become sticky if left too long!
After thawing, sprinkle granulated sugar on the biscuit dough if you like and arrange it on the top plate again. Leave at room temperature for about 90 minutes to ferment until the dough swells to about 1.5 times its original size.
Once inflated, just bake in a 180 degree oven for about 15 minutes. … But it may take longer than expected to ferment in winter. I left it at room temperature for 90 minutes, but it didn't swell enough, so I fermented it in a microwave oven at 40 degrees for about 20 minutes. This change depends on the season and temperature, so please adjust while watching the situation.
Well, 15 minutes after putting it in the oven. Here is the baked melon bread.
It's shockingly inflated ...! How lovely it is because it's plump and round.
When it bites irresistibly, the surface has a fragrant texture that is "crispy, crispy, crispy". The dough inside is so fluffy that you will be impressed, and the more you chew, the richer the butter and the elegant aroma of melon will spread. The sweetness of the crunchy granulated sugar is also a nice accent. The bakery's freshly made melon bread itself is really delicious!
The correct answer is to sprinkle with granulated sugar.
● "Frozen French bread" is also good!
In addition to frozen melon bread, Tomizawa Shoten also sells "frozen croissants" and "frozen French bread." This time, I also tried frozen French bread (345 yen for 5 pieces).
Frozen French leaven that has been carefully aged. It can be molded into any shape you like, so this is recommended for people who want to create originality.
You can make 3-4 pieces into a baguette by stretching them into a long strip, or you can make a table roll while keeping it round.
As with melon bread, wrap it in plastic wrap and thaw it at room temperature for 40 to 50 minutes. Mold it into your favorite shape, ferment it again at room temperature for about 1 hour, and bake it in an oven at 180 degrees for about 15 minutes to complete it! This time, I made a cut in the round dough to make a table roll.
After fermenting, just make a cut and bake
French bread was also surprisingly baked in earnest. The outside is crispy and fragrant, and the inside is plump and fluffy! First of all, the texture is very delicious. It's softer and easier to eat than I expected.
The taste is light and salty, so it's perfect for bread. I want to entwin the remaining sauce of pasta and steak with this and cheek it.
● Bake with plenty of time
Both frozen melon bread and French bread are super delicious just by thawing and baking. The price is reasonable, so it may be necessary to keep it in the freezer.
The only drawback is the
long waiting time . It doesn't take much time, but it takes time to thaw and ferment the dough, so it's best to wait at least 3 hours before baking. Well, the more you wait, the more delicious it is, so it's cute!
