Tips:

1. There is a slight difference in the water absorption of flour. The amount should be adjusted appropriately according to the situation of lard (it is recommended to reserve a 10% amount for temporary addition or reduction. The lard used last year will be solidified in time. The amount of flour is 20g less All sub lard is liquid, so the amount of flour will increase accordingly)
2. After mixing the oil skin and shortbread, it must be loose
