Last night I sent a message to my friend’s daughter on Facebook. I never know if people who aren’t my friend on Facebook will see the messages since they go to “other” or something like that but she’s probably way more computer literate than I am and she saw it right away.
Yum!
It is called “Kada Bread”. I would never have figured that out without her help and I think this is the first thing I’ve ever asked about that at least a few of you didn’t know about. I’m so glad I was able to get in touch with my friend’s daughter.
I found a couple of recipes online – really just two or three. This recipe has a filling that I think is similar to what my friend brought back but it doesn’t have yeast. This recipe looks more like what I had, except for the shape, but the filling has no sugar. I will combine the recipes to get what I think will work.
These are both obviously translated from another language and I question if I’m really supposed to bake these at 180° or 150° but maybe so because the sugar in the filling does not melt. It stays pretty solid.
I will do my best to combine these two recipes to make what I think is similar to what we had, I will probably bake it at 150° and see what happens. It’s just a little flour and sugar that will be wasted if it doesn’t work and the only way I’m going to be able to have these is if I make them myself or . . if I drive to Katy (about 5 hours away) to get them and somehow, I’m thinking Vince would not agree to that trip.
Today is not a day when I’ll be able to bake but I’ll let you know how it turns out when I do try it.
Louisa Robertson says
Sounds delicious! If the recipes are from another country, those could be metric temperatures (Celsius degrees). Equivalent to 300 or 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Judy Laquidara says
You are correct. Thank you! I’m glad I didn’t try baking them at 150.
Dianne says
Judy – if the recipe is from Europe perhaps the 150 degrees is in celcius. It converts to about 300 F.
Judy Laquidara says
You’re right. I was thinking . . during the summer, I could just cook these out on the front porch at 150°. I never thought about the C vs. F difference. Thank you!
Sue S says
I think Dianne is right… it always gets me when I’m watching the Great British Baking Show when they reference the Celsius. 15- = 300 and 180 = 350. Sounds more likely than 150; my oven doesn’t go down that low.
Judy Laquidara says
You’re right. I was thinking about converting the ingredients but never thought about the temp. Thanks!

Yay! I can’t wait for your review. I need to try a new recipe! 🙂
Carol says
Googled it—from Kingdom Bakery on Falcon Landing Blvd off Westheimer. Road trip!
Judy Laquidara says
I think you may need to call and order them ahead of time.
carolyn says
Oh good my sisiter was unable to help, as Katy is ‘rather large’
Sandie says
When you make it, if it turns out like the one in the picture, please share your merged recipe too! I spent 2 hours trying to come up with a recipe that looked like your picture last night, because I wanted to try it!
Ruth says
A friend in Virginia got new double ovens in December. I went to help her bake cookies and we had such trouble with the temperatures. One batch burned very quickly, and then she realized the new ovens were still set for Celsius, not Fahrenheit!
Plus, you have to push the digital button until it beeps, indicating it recognizes the number you put in. We sure wished it just had old-fashioned dials.
