I don’t like to eat this kind of old Beijing traditional moon cake the least, because the rock candy in the filling is too toothy. But Dad likes it, and this year someone’s mother was added. In order to honor the elders, although I don't like to eat, I have to make it for the elderly to taste. According to a report from someone, the old man said after tasting it, “This Zilaihong is a bit of Daoxiang Village (someone’s mother used to do financial work in Daoxiang Village, and her old man’s words are probably authoritative), but the rock sugar is less.”
Alas, my mother, your old man is right, I just didn't put too much rock candy because I was afraid of it, so I ate it all at once if I didn't think of you. Now I know where someone’s mouth is inherited from. "

Self Red

1. Pour sugar, maltose, and baking soda into a bowl, add boiling water and stir well, add sesame oil and continue to mix well.

2. Add flour and knead into a dough.

3. Put the dough on the cutting board and knead vigorously until the dough is smooth and elastic.

4. Mix the fillings well.

5. Divide the dough into dough pieces of the right size.

6. Take one and roll it into a piece.

7. Put the fillings and wrap them carefully.

8. Place the joint underneath. Dip a little red yeast rice with the cap of a mineral water bottle and cover it with a red mark. Put it in the preheated oven, 200℃, middle level, and bake for 25-30 minutes.

9. Until the surface of the moon cake turns reddish brown.

10. Let cool and eat.

Tips:
The filling ratio is not too strict. I used the leftover fillings for the five-ren mooncakes, and added sweet-scented osmanthus, rock sugar and green red silk. If you want to make a strict traditional self-made red, you can refer to "Junzhi" The teacher's prescription.
