Tips:
1. Although the steps are cumbersome, as long as the raw materials are good enough, following the procedures will basically not fail.
2. Oil return is the last stage of moon cakes. Determine whether a moon cake is a success. Oil return time is 1 to 7 days. Those who are still tough for more than seven days don't have to expect to return to the oil, and basically failed. The mooncakes after oil return need to be sealed and preserved. Eat as soon as possible within a week.
3. You can put it in the refrigerator if you can't finish it, but the taste is not so good. Personal preferences. o(∩_∩)o
