Cooking Tips

1. Today I am pressed for time, so I am a little anxious about baking, and the firepower is a little higher, and there are some slight cracks on the surface. After being sealed and stored for a few days, the oil will not be visible anymore

2. If the skin of the mooncakes swells and cracks after baking, it is usually because the filling contains too much water, or the oven temperature is too high.

Lower the oven temperature and extend the baking time appropriately
