Chinese pastries are made up of two parts: oil crust and oil pastry. You skin is kneaded with flour, lard, water, and sugar, while puff pastry is kneaded with lard and flour. After the dough is made, cut into equal number of small doughs, respectively wrap the shortbread with oil crust, roll and roll twice, and then roll into small round pieces, and then put fillings in it, bake it in the oven or oil Fried. The puff pastry that is made really melts at the touch of a touch.
Lard can be made by yourself. First, you can use the ingredients safely, and second, you can make it as you use it, which is very convenient. To boil lard, you can use pork suet, which is the piece under the pork belly, or fat pork. Cut it into small pieces, put it in an iron pan, add a small bowl of water, and boil slowly. It is often said that oil will splash everywhere in the water pot, but boiled lard is really an exception. Adding water to boil the lard can make the boiled lard clear and free of impurities, and it can also have a cooling effect, so that the lard will not be boiled dry in the pot, resulting in excessive oily smoke or discoloration of the lard.
This article only presents the making of puff pastry, please refer to my previous recipe for the article about boiled lard. "
