The Same Moonlight, A Different Life——cantonese-style Matcha Five-ren Mooncakes
1.
For the raw material map, I directly poured peanut oil and transformed bran pulp together.
2.
Mix the matcha powder and low-powder powder and mix them evenly, sift them twice to mix them completely.
3.
Pour peanut oil, invert syrup, and liquid water together and stir well.
4.
Sift in the low-powder matcha that has been sieved twice, stir evenly with a spatula, and cover with plastic wrap for half an hour.
5.
Huhao matcha dough and homemade five-core filling are divided into small portions at a weight ratio of 2:8. I used 50 grams of five-core filling and 13 grams of matcha dough.
6.
Take a matcha dough and pat it open with your hands, and put in a ball-shaped five-core filling.
7.
With two hands, use the tiger's mouth of the hand to gently push up the mooncake skin and slowly climb it up until the mouth is closed.
8.
After closing the mouth, use both hands to roll in the palm of your hand to make it into a smooth spherical shape.
9.
The mold is installed with the flower pieces, a small amount of flour is filled, the mold is shaken to make the surroundings evenly covered with a layer of flour, and then the excess is discarded.
10.
Step 8 The processed spheres are put into the moon cake mold.
11.
Spread tin foil on the baking tray, press the moon cake mold on a flat place, and then gently push out the pressed moon cake.
12.
Make a plate of moon cakes in this way, paying attention to leaving enough space between each moon cake. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.
13.
The pressed moon cakes are put into the preheated oven, middle layer, upper and lower fire. Bake for 5 or 6 minutes, take it out after the surface is set, and lightly brush with a layer of egg yolk water.
14.
Continue to put in the oven and bake for about 12 minutes, until the surface is evenly colored to golden brown and then turn off the heat.
Tips:
1. The specific oven temperature and baking time should be adjusted according to your own oven, which is on the high side.
2. The freshly baked mooncakes are very hard. Take them out and let them cool and put them in a fresh-keeping box for oil return. Generally, it takes 3-5 days. Wait until the mooncakes are soft before eating, so that they will have a real mooncake taste!
