Pretzel Bao With Sweet Sesame-Hot Mustard Pork Recipe

This recipe looks like it will be interesting as written and as a great way to use up leftover seasoned meat that is/was already fully cooked.


Pretzel Bao With Sweet Sesame-Hot Mustard Pork Recipe was included with a list of “Game Day” suggestions from Serious Eats

Most “store brand” Stone Ground or Dijon brown mustard – offered 12 oz squeeze bottles are pretty much the same. Either makes a good base for different condiment needs. (sandwich spread, dipping, glazing, etc)

Wheat’s Hot-n-Spicy Mustard Dip
3 Tbl Stone Ground Mustard
1 tsp Horse Radish POWDER
….. or 1 TBL Prepared Horse Radish
3 Tbl Water or other liquid to thin to dipping consistency
– Mix well and allow to sit at room temp for a few hours OR overnight in fridge
– Store, covered in refrigerator up to 3 weeks.

Although I will use most of their recipe for the ingredients and the technique, as of those with chronic arthritis, the dough for this recipe could easily be prepared using the dough cycle of your Bread Machine – Just remember to follow your machine’s recommendations for the order in which to add ingredients. My suggestion/rule of thumb for things like sourdough and in this case, the tangzhong is after other liquid

So far the only sub I will make is using a comparable amount of previously prepared shredded pork that needs to leave the freezer and used. It only slightly differs from the recipe in that it was modified to avoid certain ingredients which do not sit well with us. Just the first of what I suspect will be many experiments.

Egg Food Math

Continuing my dig thru unpublished Tiplet Drafts…
While doing a recipe conversion, found this link – it has quite a few “Egg” Facts – so worth a read, or you can just scroll down a bit to the Weight Class chart for the Food Math.

Alina Zeranska The Art Of Polish Cooking

This book is often my “starting point” for adapting recipes to the appliances #InMySmallKitchen – My copy is the 1968 edition. Treasured for its many notes written by me, those from aunts, cousins, and even Peggy Masterson one of the “Ladies in the office” If you are interested I did see some reasonably priced copies on line, possibly Alibris or you can use this affiliate link to see what Amazon has in new & Used versions.

Back To The Fun Stuff

Having tired of the learning the truth of this meme pretty much every day…


The plan for 2023 is to focus more time on what gives me enjoyment.
Starting with what’s going on InMySmallKitchen
Ongoing Focus on more recipe conversions to take advantage of my countertop appliances
and accessories. ( so yeah, there will be affiliate links, but only for things I used at least a few times a month to cover batch prep and special meals. )

P.S. My “big” oven continues to be an excellent place to store cook and bake ware –
P.S.Jr My policy of responding to those who choose to communicate with civility (which includes being adult enough to use your real identity) even on the most painful of topics, remains in place.
