The combination of crispy freshly baked melon bread and cold ice cream is a popular dessert. Since opening in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture in 2013, it has become a popular store where you can line up.
How to make melon bread ice cream is very simple. You can do it with melon bread and ice cream. In that case, I thought that I should buy melon bread and make it. I don't have the skill to bake melon bread myself, so I decided to find the best combination to make "the third delicious melon bread ice cream in the world" using the melon bread I bought.
We prepared two popular melon breads that can be lined up in Tokyo, one melon bread that you can buy at supermarkets, and vanilla ice cream. Which combination is the most delicious?
To make delicious "melon bread ice cream" ...
First of all, I tried melon bread ice cream, which is the second most delicious freshly baked melon bread ice cream in the world. A little thick melon bread that came out of the oven is sandwiched with plenty of ice cream. Melon bread is made by pasting a square cookie dough on a smooth round dough, unlike the one that is patterned with a general streak.
The point is a slightly unusual skin
When I grabbed it, the best match was a slightly warm melon bread (although it had cooled down in the cold sky) and cold ice cream. The cookie dough has a crunchy texture and you can enjoy the difference in texture. The dough inside was tightly packed rather than fluffy, but it melted very well and melted quickly with the ice cream.
The taste of ice cream had a strong milky taste. Also, the dough itself is not sweet, so it is well-balanced with ice cream. It seems that the crunchy texture of the skin, the melting of the dough, and the balance between the sweetness of the dough and the sweetness of the ice cream are important.
◆ Asakusa Kagetsudo "Jumbo Melonpan" Kazukido in Asakusa is a long-established store founded in 1945. The famous "Jumbo Melonpan" (200 yen) is a popular product that sells more than 2,000 pieces a day on weekends.
Freshly baked will be put in a bag with the store name
It's just a jumbo, so the diameter is about 1.5 times that of a typical melon bread. But the inside is fluffy (or rather fluffy), so you can eat it with a sip. It is a melon bread that is moist and chewy and has the best freshly baked flavor. It is a convincing taste that there is a line.
Take this melon bread, which is very delicious freshly baked, and quickly warm it with a toaster and sandwich the ice cream luxuriously. It's too fluffy to put in a knife!
When I tried it, the texture of the soft dough blended well with the vanilla ice cream, making it a very nice food. The part where the melted ice is soaked is also more moist. The crispy skin has a slight graininess to accentuate the texture. In addition, the flavor of the dough is strong, and it is comparable to vanilla ice cream. It's not too sweet, so it's well-balanced with ice cream.
As it is soft, it is easy to crush and eat
It's too fluffy and difficult to sandwich, but it's a dish that complements each other's tastes more than expected. But after all, it's a pity that the freshly baked flavor and texture are spoiled.
◆ Tsukishima / Kuei "Freshly baked melon bread" "Freshly baked melon bread" (170 yen) from Kyuei in Tsukishima, the city of monjayaki. If you eat this, you won't be able to eat melon bread from other shops! It is a popular product that some people say.
Kuei's melon bread has an impressive difference in texture between the thick skin and the moist and soft dough. The skin is covered with plenty of sugar, and you can feel the sweetness firmly. Many people buy melon bread here after eating monjayaki or after a drinking party.
Thick, hard cookie dough is sweetly finished
Kuei's melon bread has a hard bottom like a cookie, so it may be perfect for sandwiching. The skin is crispy and thicker than Kagetsudo, and the "fluffiness" inside is about halfway between Kagetsudo and the head family, and it is finished in a smooth texture.
The bottom fabric is also crispy so it's easy to hold
When I tried it, the sweetness of sugar and ice cream combined to make a sweet melon bread ice cream. The crispy texture of the dough feels like a cookie. For those who like sweets, the type with a grainy texture like Kuei may be recommended.
◆ Familiar Yamazaki's "melon bread" Next to the two famous stores is Yamazaki Baking Melon Bread, which you can buy at supermarkets and convenience stores. When warmed, it gives off a fluffy scent.
Warm the familiar melon bread with a toaster,
Immediately after taking it out of the toaster, the surface of the skin is soft, but when it cools a little, it becomes a crispy dough like a cookie. The difference in texture of "crispy x fluffy" is not enough compared to the popular melon bread, but it is surprisingly well-balanced.
Sandwich with plenty of ice cream
It has a familiar taste, but it has a different look than usual. The melon bread itself is sweet overall, so it may be a little too sweet, but it is recommended for those with a strong taste. The dough is rather dry, but it changes moistly when the ice cream soaks into it.
[Conclusion]
・ Melon bread, which is a little unsatisfactory in sweetness, brings out the taste of ice cream. ・ Thick skin is more delicious as if you are eating cookie sandwiches. ・ The goodness of the dough's mouthfeel is important. Good and delicious
I made it with vanilla ice cream this time, but it seems that I can arrange it in various ways, such as sandwiching chocolate ice cream and sandwiching fruits. Only melon bread and ice cream, but melon bread and ice cream. How about a holiday to make your own "third delicious melon bread ice cream in the world"? "Kotatsu and melon bread ice cream" may also be good.
