Temporada 10 - Desayuno / S10B16
Pan de Mallorca (Sweet Bread)
Historia
Every Sunday morning, Don Luis would wake up before the rooster 🐓, tie his signature jean-y-leather apron, y hum an old salsa tune as he prepared *Pan de Mallorca* — the sweet, soft bread that brought his whole family to the kitchen table. He’d gently roll the dough con love y laughter, telling stories about his childhood in Puerto Rico, when he’d run to the corner bakery y ask para the biggest Mallorca they had. Powdered sugar would fly everywhere like snow ❄️, y his abuela would laugh y say, *“Echa bendición, mi amor, ya tienes azúcar hasta en las orejas!”* 😄 Today, Don Luis is passing on the joy de Mallorca bread, hoping kids y grown-ups alike will smile at first bite — just like he did back in the day 💛 Time & Info
