Mid-Autumn Festival is our traditional festival, it is our reunion day.
Since ancient times, there have been many verses describing misses in ancient times. "Sage of Poetry" Li Bai’s "Quiet Night Thoughts" is a familiar verse. There are also many scholars who are busy on the road. Poems such as "heart and bright moon" all show that the Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of reunion.
The traditional food of the Mid-Autumn Festival is moon cakes. Moon cakes are round, which symbolizes reunion and reflects people's good wishes for family reunion.
It is said that moon cakes originated in the Tang Dynasty. I remember that when I was young, they were mostly homemade moon cakes, and the fillings were very simple. It is very luxurious to put some melon noodles and green red silk. The only sold in pastry shops are five kernels, red bean paste, and jujube paste. Several traditional fillings. Even if it is single, as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, I still hope my father can bring back a few moon cakes sold in the pastry shop.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of moon cakes and rich fillings, but they never feel the expectation and sweetness of childhood.
In addition to price factors, moon cakes sold outside have problems that affect human health, such as high sugar, high oil, and additives.
This year I made fillings, syrups, etc., all by myself to ensure that there are no additives.
If you love your family, you must make mooncakes that are healthier without additives. "

Tips:
It is best to make white kidney bean filling with large white folded kidney beans, which are made by peeling the skin, and have a better taste and appearance. I bought small white kidney beans from the market and they couldn’t be peeled because the white kidney beans I bought online have not yet arrived. I feel that they are finely crushed with a juice machine, but the bean paste with the skin will become white after roasting. Beautiful.
Peach Mountain Mooncakes are mainly made of white kidney beans, so when making the crust and fillings, it is best to add flour materials.
The amount of different materials is different, because the water absorption of various powders is different, you can try to adjust it slowly.
The addition of powder materials may make the crust dry. You can add a little pure water and knead it thoroughly to make the crust soft again.
