27's Baking Diary—puff Pastry Mooncakes (inspired by Old Beijing Zilaihong)
1.
Kidney bean stuffing (this is to press the kidney beans in a pressure cooker for half an hour, drain, add appropriate amount of sugar and oil to fry)
2.
Let's make the filling first. Fry the pork cubes according to your favorite taste. After cutting the raisins and orange zest, put all the ingredients of the filling together, stir evenly, and knead it into 12 balls of the same size. If there are various weights in this, 27 are all made by feeling~ 恩恩~ Let’s show your creativity~
3.
Start making the skin, first pour the white sugar, maltose, and baking soda into a bowl, then add boiling water, stir well, pour in the oil, and stir well.
4.
Add flour and start kneading vigorously! Weight loss has started~ Knead vigorously for 20-30 minutes until the dough becomes very smooth and elastic. Huhu~so tired~~
5.
Roll out the dough into rectangular pieces.
6.
Then fold the dough sheets like a quilt. Roll out the dough again and fold it up, repeat 2 or 3 times until the dough becomes smooth and flat.
7.
Roll up the rolled dough. Cut into 12 uniform portions.
8.
Roll the small noodles into a thin skin and start wrapping~
9.
After closing the mouth, the mouth is facing down, then, dip a little coloring matter with the lid of the drink and buckle it up~
10.
Put it in the preheated oven, middle level, upper and lower heat, 200℃, 25-30 minutes, bake until the surface is brown.
11.
The baked meringue is a bit hard~ but it will be crispy when you bite it~ Be sure to work hard when you knead the noodles, otherwise the skin will not be crispy and delicious~
12.
Before 27 made with sesame oil, the color was darker and more beautiful. Today I changed to corn oil, and the color became a lot lighter~because the flavor of sesame oil is stronger~so, 27 used corn oil~as for the filling part~fry For the meat cubes, I added melon seeds, walnuts, and sesame seeds to stir-fry together, so that the flavor is more fragrant~ The meat cubes are salty, with sweet kidney bean filling, orange red and raisins~ the clashing taste is an unusual combination~
