Wife cake, wife cake, there is no wife in the wife cake.
Wife Cake is a famous snack in Guangzhou, and it also has an elegant name called "Dongrong Su".
Regarding the wife’s cake, there is a legend: there used to be a loving but poor couple. Because the father was seriously ill and the family had no money to treat, the wife had to sell herself and enter the landlord’s house to earn money to treat the disease. The husband who lost his wife was not discouraged. He developed a delicious pie, and finally redeemed his wife by selling the pie, and lived a happy life again. After this delicacy spread, it was called wife cake.
Today I bring a simple version of the wife's cake, no need to make winter melon puree, simple fillings, the taste is sweet and not inferior at all.

Tips:

Both the water and oily skin and the shortbread should be in a soft state, and it is best to cook for more than 30 minutes, so that it is easy to operate when rolling;
The divided dough of shortbread and water and oily skin needs to be covered with plastic wrap during the operation process to prevent the surface from drying out and affecting the production;
When rolling, do not roll the entire roll from top to bottom, start from the middle and roll to both sides, and repeat until you reach the length you are satisfied with. This is easier to operate and easier to roll evenly;
When filling pastry and fillings, be sure to close the mouth, close the mouth, and face down to prevent the filling from bursting when the filling is not tightly closed;
When cutting the mouth, it is best to use a sharper blade to cut a little deeper, so that it can run out of gas during baking and prevent the filling from bursting;
Please adjust the baking temperature and time according to the actual situation of your own oven.
