Making custard filling is actually not difficult. Just prepare the required ingredients and follow the steps. It is very simple. For some friends who like to think about, drink and study gourmet cooking, it is really not difficult. It is the favorite filling of southerners for making moon cakes and steamed buns. It is so delicious that I no longer need to buy it. It turns out that it is so easy to make your own custard filling, it is rich and delicate, and the mooncakes are so delicious. I will not buy it again. Next, I will present the detailed method. If you like it, keep it.
Prepare ingredients: 50 grams of butter, 25 grams of fine sugar, 2 eggs, 20 grams of starch powder, and 40 grams of milk powder.
1. First add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, boil the water and set aside.
2. Take a small plate, put the butter into the plate, place the plate in hot water and warm it over water to soften the butter.
3. Add fine sugar and beat the butter with an electric whisk until the volume of butter doubles. (The specific effect is shown in the picture above).
4. Then beat in an egg liquid,
5. Use a whisk to mix the eggs and butter thoroughly.
6. Then add another egg liquid and mix the eggs and butter thoroughly. There are 4 eggs here, so we add the eggs in 4 steps in this step. Each time you add the eggs, mix the eggs and butter thoroughly.
7. Mix the eggs and butter thoroughly every time you add eggs. Add the eggs and beat until evenly mixed, as shown in the picture above.
8. Add the milk powder together.
9. Add the orange powder together and mix evenly with a manual egg beater.
10. At this time, the custard paste is in a state of oil and water separation, which is normal.
11. Put the custard paste (put it into the hot water that has been heated in advance) and stir evenly until the separation of oil and water slowly disappears.
12. Mix thoroughly, cover and steam for 5 minutes.
13. After 5 minutes, open the lid and stir evenly again. (Keep medium-low heat throughout the process, and the water temperature is still warm).
14. Cover the pot and steam for 10 minutes without covering the pot (be sure to keep the heat low at this time), and the water should be kept boiling.
15. Keep stirring until the custard paste is completely solidified.
16. Stir until there is no liquid, then it is cooked. At this time, continue to stir until the custard paste can feel the hardness, that is, it will not stick to the spatula, and then it can be put on a plate.
17. Take the cooked custard filling out of the pot and let it cool down at room temperature. Divide it into small pieces and put it in the refrigerator. Take it out when it is time to make the filling. In this way, a homemade version of custard filling is ready. In addition to being used to make moon cakes, it is also very fragrant when making bread and buns. And it’s not particularly difficult to do, but it does require some patience. The delicious food is worth the wait.
