When I took my first bite of the Kouign Amann (pronounced as kween a-mon), I was totally blown away. It looks like a cinnamon pastry roll but it is actually a Breton cake made of plain flour dough, folded multiple times with plenty of butter and dusted with loads of sugar. In French, ‘Kouign’ means cake and ‘Amann’ means butter so it’s very much like a crusty layered bread cake. When it bakes in the oven, the sugar melts between the layers and caramelises at the surface. The kouign amann tastes
When I took my first bite of the Kouign Amann (pronounced as kween a-mon), I was totally blown away. It looks like a cinnamon pastry roll but it is actually a Breton cake made of plain flour dough, folded multiple times with plenty of butter and dusted with loads of sugar. In French, ‘Kouign’ means cake and ‘Amann’ means butter so it’s very much like a crusty layered bread cake. When it bakes in the oven, the sugar melts between the layers and caramelises at the surface. The kouign amann tastes so crispy on the outside yet moist and sticky on the inside. Layers and layers of rich buttery sweet salty flavours. Excellent balance of savoury and sweet. I-S listed this as one of the 50 items to eat in Singapore before one dies. I concur, wholeheartedly. A comfort food to die for with no regrets.For full review and pictures, please visit http://springtomorrow.com/2013/06/30/tiong-bahru-bakery-by-gontran-cherrier/
