There are many flavors of Cantonese-style moon cakes. The most classic lotus seed paste and egg yolk filling is my favorite and my family's favorite. It is said that mooncakes with lotus seed paste and egg yolk are the soul of Cantonese mooncakes, presumably, most people will also like them.
The process of making mooncakes does not seem complicated, but to do it well, there are many details that need to be paid attention to. The frying of the fillings, the recipe of the crust, the baking temperature..., each level needs to be careful. , More experience is needed.
For this mooncake, I use 5 100g molds, and the ratio of the skin to the filling is 2:8. This kind of skin is relatively thin, and some recipes have a ratio of 3:7. This is based on your preference. "

Tips:

Poetry heart phrase:



1: The fillings used to make Cantonese-style mooncakes should be fried slightly dry, otherwise it will easily cause the skin and fillings to separate during the baking of the mooncakes.



2: The ratio of skin filling 2:8, the mooncake skin is very thin, so it should be as even as possible when pushing.
