I have been baking for a long time and this is the first time to bake a wife's cake. Because I was tired of eating egg yolk cakes at home recently, I changed the pattern to make meringues, and they sold well after baking. Wife pie has a loose crust, a moist and soft filling, and a sweet but not greasy taste. It is indeed a good dessert, but its most attractive place lies in its warm name and the touching legend.

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. "

Tips:
1. If you want to not break the skin when you want to roll it up, knead it as much as possible. If you knead out the glove film, you can avoid not breaking the skin. However, I generally did not knead out the glove film, and basically there was no broken skin.
2. Remember to cover with plastic wrap and relax for 20 minutes after each roll up.
3. The baking temperature is adjusted according to the own oven.
