Optimizing San Choi Bao

Prepper Bread
05/05/2026 | 7 mins.
Yumi and guest-host Jennifer Wong share their anxieties about what useful skills they'd have in a post-apocalyptic wasteland...

...And Yumi comes through with a really good Yoghurt Flatbread - which is good for right now - tonight even? But may also come in handy if we run out of bread but can still use a frypan.

A very good recipe here, and here, and this is the one Yumi uses which is 3/4 cup Greek yoghurt + 1 cup SR flour.
