Easy Butterfly Pea Baguettes 简易紫蝶豆花法国面包 (中英加图食谱)


This is my first attempt making baguettes and using natural butterfly pea flowers to achieve a lovely blue hue. Don't you think it's pretty? Super love the natural blue coloring and health benefits the blue pea flowers offer. Blue pea flowers are high in antioxidants, improves eye sight, improves memory, sharpen the mind, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, can reduce the risk of developing diabetes and boosts immune system. 

Here are other blue pea breads that I've tried in the past and recently.

Ogura Colour De Quad 四色相思蛋糕 (中英食谱教程)




This is my first attempt making an ogura cake and I was bold enough to try it out in four colours. As usual using only natural colourings as I dislike using artificial colourings made of chemicals. I wanted a pretty looking cake as I was making it for my grandmother's 92nd birthday. 

这是我第一次做相思蛋糕。为了烤出一个亮丽的蛋糕给阿的92岁生日,就很大胆地尝试用四种颜色。跟往常一样,我只选择用天然色素,因为不喜欢用化学而成的人造色素。

Not long ago, I made my Yoga Cotton Cake for granny and she loves it much. This time, I decided to try out the Ogura cake which is also known for it's soft and moist texture. I have named it Ogura Coleur De Quad, a French name which means Orgura with four colours. The four colours batter were poured into the baking mould one after another and baked at the same time. I was really curious how the colours will turn out after baked and was pleasantly pleased and surprised with the nice pattern formation! My granny even gave a thumbs up for the cake! 


不久前,做了瑜伽棉花蛋糕嬤吃,她特别喜欢。这次想尝试这款也有着柔软湿润质感的相思蛋糕给她试,希望她也一样喜欢。 我把蛋糕的四色面糊一层接一层倒入烤模一起烤,蛮好奇烤出来的图案会是怎样的。蛋糕出炉后,我非常满意形成的图案,是不是很漂亮?吃了蛋糕之后还竖起拇指说好呢!

I want to thank my dear hubby here as after hearing how I wished I can have a Blue Pea plant at home so that I can extract natural blue colourings for my bakes, he immediately searched on the internet and bought the plant for me. Here's one flower which bloom yesterday morning after I have plucked out all to make this cake. Isn't it pretty? Looking at it lifts up my mood! :)
