For the penultimate day of this series, I hurriedly baked this colorful bread. This bread is from Korea and probably is meat based. I have followed this recipe almost as is from Varada's space. She has used colored peppers and onions and made a delightful bread.
The day I baked this bread, I was in a hurry to take the pictures before the sun light disappears and made a blunder of slicing it while it was still hot. So the bread turned out a little soggy. But it tasted awesome when toasted the next day.
