The production method of spring cakes still follows the ancient baking or steaming methods. The size can be determined by personal preference. A large one can be as big as a round fan, and a small one can be as small as a Dutch shell. The basic production steps are as follows:
Making materials:
1. 250 grams of flour, 120 grams of boiling water, 50-60 grams of cold water, and a little vegetable oil.

2. Side dishes are optional according to personal preference, such as shredded green onions, fried shredded pork, fried bean sprouts, and cucumber shreds wait.
Production process:
Cake embryo 1. Add the flour to boiling water and stir to form a loose dough. Add cold water in batches and knead with your hands into a smooth dough of moderate hardness. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Take out the rested dough and cut off a piece, sprinkle with dry flour and knead slightly, roll it into a long strip, and use a knife to divide it into small pieces weighing about 15 grams. Press the small dough pieces into small pancakes, brush a layer of oil on the pancakes and set aside.
3. Take two small dough pieces and put the oiled sides together. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a pancake about 15 cm in diameter.
Pancakes
1. Heat the pan, then add the rolled out dough and bake over medium heat.
2. When there are bubbles bulging in the middle of the cake, it means one side is almost cooked. Turn it over and cook the other side. If both sides are slightly light yellow, it is considered done.
3. Take out the baked pancake and divide it into two pancakes. Stack the baked cakes together and cover them with a damp clean gauze. This can not only keep the cake warm, but also increase the humidity of the cake, making the cake more pliable and delicious.
4. Take out a piece of baked pancake, put on your favorite toppings, roll it together and eat.
Tips:
Brush the small pieces of dough evenly with oil, otherwise the two cakes will stick to each other after baking; because the cake is relatively thin, be sure to use medium heat when heating. If you are skilled, you can turn the dough several times to prevent it from burning; the baked cake must be covered with a damp cloth to increase moisture. The side dishes should be crispy and should not have too much vegetable soup; the pancakes that are not eaten up can be cut into thin strips and made into fried pancakes like fried noodles, which tastes very good.
