How A Family Bakery Makes Brooklyn's Favorite Conchas | Insider Food

[@bopvan9146]

The first time I had concha I fell in love with it. Then I started microwaving them for 10 - 12 seconds. BOY it made the texture even more satisfying!

[@vientoerrante]

A warm concha is so delicious, and the smell is seducing

[@soixantecroissants]

Love when family is highlighted on cooking shows, having a strong unit is a blessing. Moving forwards together is a great slogan!

[@czar8318]

The best way to eat conchas is to dip them in hot chocolate or coffee.

I love Mexican sweet pastries. They are the best because they are not too sweet or to bland. My favorite Mexican pastry is the concha!

[@jadecummings8093]

Conchas, never seen and had it before, I hope it tastes good!

[@l.a.1254]

Theyre so good. They arent overly sweet either. 👌

Thanks Insider, I am officially dying for food because of you! 😩😋

[@baguette1021]

OMG!! There’s a really similar bread in Japan called melon-pan because it looks like melon.

[@ultimasolucion6904]

Interestingly enough, the word for bread is the same in both Spanish and Japanese

[@alarm35m]

Yeah, as far as I've read conchas were taken back to Hong Kong from Mexico by Chinese immigrants when Mexico initiated anti Chinese policies and the Japanese obtained the process during WW2 when they invaded Hong Kong.

[@yolismartinez8537]

Cochas y bolillos en cada mañana 🌆 I remember going to the Azteca bakery with my mom and choosing my favorite concha And how the bolillo and all these other pastries smell filled the bakery . Just by opening the door you can already taste the bite of a concha .

[@l.a.1254]

Conchas!!! My favorite!💜

[@sincerelymia7488]

For those that love conchas you should give pineapple buns a chance. The process of making conchas are similar to pineapple buns with putting a layer of the sugar to create its shape. Both taste amazing in their own way.

[@alarm35m]

Yeah, Chinese immigrants to Mexico took the process back to China.

[@jennifermarieherron7948]

That's how my grandma made pan ('bon'). She scrubbed her table and measured everything by feel, mixed the ingredientes into a big flour well and then she made the shapes from bolitas. I'd love to go here one day and brunch. Believe it or not, bon is tasty with savory foods as a side dish and yes, we eat bon ("dulce": 'dual say') with hot soup, stew or whatever's for dinner. Bon has a seriously wide array of flavors and they have the more savory fragrant spices in them too. Cardamom, anise, peppercorn.. My grandma made alot of bon in her lifetime. She was raised on a wheat field and helped run the family bakery. Perfect bon. Just bread so delicious it has brought tears to ever-hungry eyes.

[@whitealliance9540]

Wonderful story.

[@ultimasolucion6904]

[@whitealliance9540]

2:38 come to NYC and find a small hole in the wall mexican store... Theres a lot in the bronx. This entire plate is about $5 these pastries are dirt cheap to make and if the bakery works fast they will sell them all day and omg they are the best fresh.

If they get too hard or cold just microwave em for a few seconds. Get em soft and dip it in milk. Or a protein shake works. I would say that it’s the best combo ever.

[@noelmakarth156]

Used to hate eating these as a kid. Too thick for my little tummy. Now, I enjoy them with a glass of milk.

[@PartanBree]

I don't know what it is about these, I've never had them, but they press my happy button. I'm going to try making them. I've made Japanese melonpan, very similar technique and the same cute happy vibe. Wrapping cookie dough around bread is such an unusual idea that I'm curious if the two are somehow related or if they appeared independently. Are Mexican sweet breads generally eaten plain, or do you cut them open and put things in them? I've only ever eaten the melonpan plain and warm out of the oven.

[@JoliBaePop]

You can eat the bread with coffee, milk, or even hot chocolate. Or, if you’d prefer it, just plain haha there is no right way of eating it but my family always ate them by dunking them in milk 😋 It’s however you prefer them 😁

[@mawlinzebra]

Conchas were first made in the mid 19th century. Melonpan was first made in 1917 by a eastern European chef living in Japan. I don't know exactly but my bet is he was influenced by conchas.
