Ingredients

Katie Cantonese Mooncakes

1. Wash the raw salted egg and take out the salted egg yolk, wash it gently in clean water and remove the film, place it on a baking tray lined with tin foil, put it in a preheated oven and bake it at 150 degrees for 10 minutes.

2. Bake until oil droplets emerge on the surface of the egg yolk, take it out and let it cool for later use.

5. Take an appropriate amount of filling and weigh an egg yolk together, each serving a total of 60 grams.

6. Round the filling and squash it, put the whole egg yolk in the middle, close the mouth and round it for later use.

8. At this time, prepare the moon cake mold first, and buckle the pieces into the mold.

9. Take a pie dough and flatten it in the palm of your hand. The middle is thin and the sides are thick. The area is about half the filling.

Tips:

1. The ratio I made is 2:8, that is, 75 grams of a moon cake, 15 grams of crust, 60 grams of filling + egg yolk, but it is difficult to operate, 3: 7 will be easier.
2. Corn oil can also be changed to peanut oil.
3. Moon cake pre-mixed powder is good-run and easy-to-baking. It does not need to add liquid water by yourself to increase the success rate. The oil will return the next day.
Liquid soap mainly affects the coloring and oil return speed of moon cakes. Adding liquid soap by yourself requires more attention to the concentration and dosage of liquid soap.
4. The salted egg yolk used in this recipe is freshly peeled and does not need to be soaked in oil.
5. The egg yolk film must be removed when making the egg yolk liquid, and a very thin layer must be brushed when brushing the mooncakes.
6. Moon cakes cannot be moved just after they are out of the oven. They will be easily deformed. They can only be moved after the cake crust becomes hard after it is completely cooled.
7. 75 grams of moon cakes are suitable for salted egg yolks under 15 grams.
8. This square cake can make 26 moon cakes with a ratio of 2:8.
