The first step is to make stuffing. The filling of mung bean cake is high-quality peeled green watercress.
After washing and soaking, drain the water and roll it into mud.
Then add the right amount of sugar and stir well, and the mung bean cake becomes the filling of mung bean cake.
Then make the crust in two steps. The first step is the dough, in which refined rapeseed oil is added to the refined flour according to the ratio of 3 ∶/kloc-0 ∶, and it is kneaded evenly by hand, and sugar water is continuously added when kneading the dough until it is kneaded into dough. The second step is pastry. Rapeseed oil is added to the refined flour at the ratio of 1: 1, and kneaded evenly by hand until the dough is formed.
Rola Chen has to knead dough so hard every day.
Ask Uncle Chen why most people use lard, and you should use rapeseed oil. Uncle Chen said that lard has been used before, but now many middle-aged and elderly people and children are actually not suitable for eating more lard, which is not good for their health. Unsaturated fatty acids and essential fatty acids in rapeseed oil are much higher than those in lard. I choose high quality rapeseed oil, which is tasteless. My wife loves frying rapeseed oil when cooking.
Every little dough is the same size. Pinch it with your hands.
When the dough and stuffing are ready, the cake is ready. First, a small dough with surface crust is pressed into blocks, then a small dough with pastry crust is pressed into blocks and stacked on the dough with surface crust. The cake baked in this way can have a multi-layered taste and is crisp and refreshing.
Uncle Chen is mixing two kinds of dough, and the mixed dough is very similar in weight.
In some handicrafts, you can know the weight of each skin with your fingers.
Impartiality, which takes a long time of practice.
Mung bean cake before baking
Then knead the dough into a bowl, add the mung bean cake stuffing, then knead the mouth tightly into a ball shape, then stick a little white sesame seeds on the bottom, put it into a circular mold and press it into a cake shape with the palm of your hand, and a mung bean cake is formed.
Rapid cake turning process
The baking process of the cake is very important. You need to stand in front of the oven and observe the color of the cake, keep turning it over and add rapeseed oil in time until both sides of the cake are golden yellow. The whole baking process takes about half an hour. It takes years of experience to master the temperature, rotation time and oil brushing amount.
