Super-detailed method of production of Cantonese moon cakes with picking the egg yolks Tips on how to do it ?

The syrup is added to alkaline water and stirred well + peanut oil and then stirred well, anyway, it is to mix well, of course, you use a mixer is better, I am too lazy to wash on the vigorous stirring!

Mix well

High-gluten flour and low-gluten flour are weighed and sifted in advance

Add one-third of the flour to the liquid and mix well

Add the rest of the flour and mix well, do not need to be overly kneaded so as not to be out of the gluten

Covered with plastic wrap at least 2 hours of refrigeration, used up in 3 days, the more the later the use of mooncake crust coloring The deeper the color of the crust

Salted egg yolk, and then put on the filling adds up to 35g, the filling is based on your needs to adjust the ratio of pie crust. The best recommended 2:8 and 3:7, I am 3:7, the skin is already very thin back to the oil after the skin tastes very good, 2:8, then I personally feel that the novice is very difficult to operate is very easy to show filling, you do not feel confident you can try 4:6 (I did not try to feel that the skin may be too thick filling is not delicious are eating yolks ah haha) so the fillings I learned the right amount because the yolks have the size of the skin, filling everyone to do the proportion is not the same

Weigh good filling rolled round and flattened, put on the salted egg yolks, with the filling to the salted egg yolks wrapped up, remember to use the tiger's mouth to slowly push, wrapped evenly. Finally, knead the round.

Previously, so the crust weighed 15g each

The crust is syrup, so a little sticky hands, when the package to get a little bit of moon cake flour anti-stick, the crust should be a little bit of the filling to push up until the mouth of all wrapped up, if the crust is not uniformly wrapped, you can demolish the East to make up for the West to the crust package firmly, the process is not important to the results of the good on the right heehee

Packed up after the moon cake billet thrown into the flour

The molds should also be dusted with flour to prevent sticking. Then put it into the mold and press the shape (it's best to knead it into an oval shape and put it into the mold, otherwise it will be too flat and knock the sides of the mold and the mooncake crust will be hurt)

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, middle layer, upper and lower heat, bake for 5-7 minutes to set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes at a time. Brush with egg yolk mixture + water (or whole egg + water), remember not to brush too much egg yolk mixture on the surface, just brush the top part of the pattern that protrudes out, it is best to use a wool brush to control the amount of better, bake for 8 minutes, and then remove from the surrounding area and the surface of the brush with egg mixture. Remove from oven and cool for another 8 minutes. Repeat several times until the mooncakes are golden brown in color. Do not time more than 8 minutes, you can bake a few more times to dry, because the baking time is too long moon cake skin becomes soft to support the expansion of the internal filling will be deformed, so you need to be diligent to change the disk (I am two baking dishes to take turns to do, take out to cool the other baking dish when the baking dish into the baking, so that it will not waste time), the baking time of their own grasp, the temperature of each family's oven are different.
