The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, so try to make moon cakes yourself. Here are some methods I recommend to make moon cakes. Let's take a look.
Multicolored iced moon cakes:
Ingredients: appropriate amount of moon cake powder with ice skin.
Accessories: jujube, yam, purple potato, pumpkin and spinach.
Production method:
Step 1. Remove the core and slice the jujube, and steam it in a steamer.
Step 2. After cooking, mash it, use a non-stick pan, do not put oil, and fry it with low heat.
Step 3. Peel and cut the yam, purple sweet potato and pumpkin, and steam them in a steamer.
Step 4. Put it into a cooking machine and mash it. Wash the spinach and mash it.
Step 5. Next, mix the dough, add the moon cake powder with ice skin, knead it into dough, and the colored dough is ready.
Step 6. Pack the mud jujube stuffing, put it into the mold, and press it out of the film.
Step 7. Put the prepared moon cakes into a pot and steam for 5 minutes.
Cantonese lotus seed paste egg yolk moon cake:
Ingredients: 200g moon cake powder, Taikoo invert syrup 150g, 50g peanut oil, 3g Chencun water, 0/8 salted duck egg yolk, 7 10g red lotus seed paste or white lotus seed paste.
Accessories: egg yolk (brush) 1 piece, egg white (brush) 1 spoon.
Production method:
Step 1. Put the salted duck egg yolk in the baking tray, put it in the oven 140 degrees, bake it for about 7 minutes, take it out and let it cool. Pay attention to the time and the heat, just cook it for 7 minutes, and don't crack it or bake it out. (It's best to buy raw salted duck eggs from the market and knock them out yourself, because the egg yolk purchased online is too smelly);
Step 2. Pour the syrup into a glass bowl, add peanut oil and scooped water, and stir well.
Step 3. Sieve in the moon cake powder and knead it into dough by hand;
Step 4. Move into another clean container, cover it with plastic wrap, and put it in the refrigerator for cold storage and standing 1 hour;
Step 5. Take a small piece of 1 red lotus seed paste or white lotus seed paste, put it together with the egg yolk, and weigh out 53g (75g moon cake is made, the crust is 22g, and the stuffing and egg yolk are 53g. Because the size of the egg yolk is not fixed, there is no way to determine how much the stuffing needs, only weigh out 53g together with the egg yolk);
Step 6. Wrap the egg yolk into the lotus paste stuffing, knead it into balls, and wrap eighteen in one package;
Step 7. Take out the pastry dough from the refrigerator and divide it into 18 portions, each portion is about 22g (I divide it according to the ratio of 75g to 3:7);
Step 8. Squeeze a piece of dough, wrap it on the lotus paste stuffing, gently push the dough down with the tiger's mouth, and rotate while pushing until it is near the bottom, then turn it over, continue to slowly push it together with the tiger's mouth, and close the mouth;
Step 9. It is better to wear the disposable anti-sticking gloves when stuffing, which is easier to operate.
Step 10. Put the wrapped moon cake in low flour, slightly dip some flour into the mold, shake it to make the flour adhere to the mold, then pour out the excess flour, put the wrapped dough into the mold, and press out the shape of the moon cake;
Step 1 1. Sprinkle a little water on the surface of the moon cake with a watering can, then put it in the middle layer of an oven preheated to 200 degrees in advance, bake it for 5 minutes, take it out after the pattern is set, and brush it with a layer of egg yolk water, which is mixed with 1 spoonful of egg yolk protein. Bake in the oven, and then lower the oven temperature to 180 degrees;
Step 12. Continue 180 degree baking 15 minutes.
