Going to the zoo! 烤餅乾, 鮪魚三明治

Lat Friday was Good Friday and also the last day of school vacation. I thought it's the perfect day to take my little niece to the local zoo. She is two and a half years old, and this is her first time in the zoo. I thought to see live animals in front of her (rather than in a book) would make her excited.

 
My husband went to a busy fish market with my father-in-law. It would take them a good half day to come back. My mother-in-law and me took my little niece to the zoo. I baked some animal cookies and cheese cookies for snack on the road. I also made tuna sandwiches for lunch for everybody, starting from baking the bread.

Raspberry walnut bread

• 300 g bread flour
• 100 g whole wheat flour
• 2 1/2 Tbsp sugar
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 Tbsp butter
• 180 g water
• 100 g milk
• 3/4 tsp bread machine yeast (instant yeast)
• 1/3 cup raspberry raisins and chopped walnut (combined)

1. Combine all ingredients in a bread machine. Use the dough function.

2. After a dough is formed, let it rise until twice in volume.

3. Roll it out into a rectangle, about 8" x 10".

4. Roll it into a log from the short side (8" side).

5. Put it in a pullman pan (4" x 4" x 8"). Let it rise until 80% to 90% full).

6. Put on the lid and bake at 320 degree Fahrenheit for 55 min. (I was also baking cookies, so that's why I use such low temperature, but I bake it longer.)

After let cool overnight, I prepared the sandwich in the morning. I like tuna sandwich, you can put anything you like and it still taste very good. The things I like to put is: canned tuna, mayonnaise, shredded carrots, sliced black olives, sweet corn, celery, etc. 

As you can see from the picture, I put sliced Japanese cucumber and cheese on the other side of the sandwich. Everybody loved it!
