Tips:
Nuo's mother said:
1. When the Cantonese-style mooncakes are used to pack mooncakes, the general dough filling ratio is 2:8 or 3:7, and 2:8 is not easy to operate for novices, so the 3:7 ratio is used in the recipe.
2. Regarding the use of oil, I like to use peanut oil to make the crust. Some friends ask me if it’s okay to use liquid ghee. I just want to ask you why you make home baking. Isn’t it for safety and health? What are you doing with that ghost
3. The ingredients and nuts of the five-ren moon cakes can be selected according to your preference. If they are raw, they should be cooked in a dry pan in advance on a low fire, or in an oven at 150 degrees. The time varies. Pay attention to observe and take them out. Rub it between your fingers, and the skin will be cooked when you can rub it off.
4. Invert syrup can be made by yourself or you can buy the finished product. You can choose a brand you trust. The syrup you make is very variable and the consistency is not easy to grasp. If you make a thin syrup, add more flour and less thick. Flour can be adjusted with flour.
5. The amount of sugar is slowly added according to your taste, until you like the sweetness, the amount of water is not fixed, you have to slowly add it so that the filling can be squeezed into a ball.
6. The moon cake cracks after baking. Check if the oven temperature is too high, the oven temperature will cause cracks, and the crust is not dry, and it is also the cause of cracks. It does not matter if there are very small cracks after baking, because the moon cakes After cooling down completely, the small gap disappears.
7. The temperature and time of the recipe are all reference values, according to the situation of your own oven
8. Regarding the flour, Cantonese-style cake crust is a lot of low-gluten flour, so the taste will be softer, but for many friends, this kind of ordinary flour for home is more convenient to obtain, so this recipe uses ordinary flour
9. The cake crust must be proofed for more than 2 hours to increase the ductility, and it will be good when it is wrapped. This recipe is 16 pieces of 75 grams. If you like to make more, you can double it.
