Is Yuntui moon cake delicious?
Yuntui moon cake is made by cutting the best part of Xuanwei ham into small pieces, adding winter honey, lard and white sugar to make stuffing, and then baking it with purple wheat flour in Chenggong County, a suburb of Kunming. Its appearance is brownish yellow and slightly hard, and it is crisp when eaten, so it is commonly known as "hard shell ham cake". The crisp rosin pine is sweet, salty, oily but not greasy, and has a strong ham flavor. It is a necessary food for the Mid-Autumn Festival and a good gift for relatives and friends.
The practice of cloud-legged moon cakes
material
Flour, lard, butter, eggs, cloud legs, sugar, salt.
manufacturing process
Making dough: lard, butter, eggs, proper amount of sugar, and a teaspoon of salt, break up and stir evenly (in fact, I just stirred it dozens of times, which is easy), then add proper amount of flour and knead the dough evenly;
Filling:
1, diced cloud legs and steamed in a pot;
2. Stir-fry the cooked noodles: put a little lard in the hot pot, until the lard turns into dry flour, and keep stirring until the color is slightly darker;
3, diced cloud legs, cooked noodles, sugar, stir evenly, if it is too dry, you can add a little lard;
Wrap moon cakes:
1, the prepared stuffing is put in the refrigerator for a while, waiting for the lard to form a block, which is easier to wrap;
2. Take a proper amount of small pieces of dough, knead them evenly by hand (it is easy to soften and knead them because of oil), pat them into cakes by hand (it is ok, but a little sticky), wrap the stuffing, pinch the openings together, then turn them upside down and put them on an oiled baking tray;
Baking:
Preheat the oven at 220 degrees and bake for about 25 minutes, during which the egg liquid is brushed twice.
Which brand of cloud leg moon cake is delicious?
1, Kunming Yuanmao Park
This is a famous pastry factory in Kunming, which is loved by local people. By the way, his flower biscuits definitely surpass some flower cakes advertised all over the sky. I have to mention his double ham, which is one of the best ham cakes I have eaten in recent years. In fact, this is not a ham moon cake in the strict sense, but the meat stuffing is really first-class. The ham is oily but not greasy, with a thin skin and thick stuffing, a large proportion of lean meat and a full sense of meat. When eaten in the mouth, it is the kind of oily ham stuffing in the propaganda picture. The only drawback is probably that the skin is too crisp, and it often breaks when picked up. But it's called ham crisp, so it's okay. Of course, a penny is worth a penny, and the price of Taobao is about 56 per box, a box of 800g, with 16 cubes.
2. Qujing moon cakes
Qujing because of Xuanwei ham, Yuntui moon cakes are well made and delicious, and have a good reputation in Yunnan. Basically, every brand of Qujing moon cakes tastes not bad. I studied in Qujing and ate various brands of Qujing moon cakes. Almost all moon cakes in Qujing are hard-shell ham, and the tastes of several brands are similar. The quality of ham materials is very high, depending on which one you prefer.
3, cigarette factory moon cakes
Yunnan is a big province of tobacco leaves, the welfare of various tobacco factories is better, and the canteens are naturally good, so the moon cakes produced by several tobacco factories in Yunnan have a good reputation. When I was a child, when I was in the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone looked forward to the oldest cigarette factory moon cake wrapped in red paper, which was full of meat and crispy skin, and could make people think about it for a year. Now perhaps it is the improvement of living standards, and I feel that the moon cakes produced by the tobacco factory are not as delicious as before. However, the moon cakes in the tobacco factory are still the memory of a generation, and the taste and quality have remained unchanged for many years. By the way, another kind of food, the milk fan Saqima, which is not sold in the canteen of Kunming Tobacco Factory, is also a must. After frying the milk fan, it was made into a crispy milk fan with a little milk fragrance and sour cheese. It can't be praised with milk, which is delicious for local people.
