Tips:

The mixed noodles must be soaked for two to three hours. Do not leave the noodles in the refrigerator for a long time. The longest time should not exceed 4 hours, otherwise it will cause diarrhea;
The temperature of the baking oven should not be too low, otherwise the mooncake skin will stick to your hands, and the side of the mooncake will also be easy to bulge. That is to say, do not brush too much with the bulging egg yolk, otherwise the pattern will not be clear after baking.
