Ingredients
Steps
-
Process the egg yolks first and soak them in wine for a few minutes,
-
Bake it in the oven at 150 degrees for 7 minutes. Don't dare to bake it all at once for fear of it being damaged. Take a few experiments first.
-
After baking, place it in a bowl and pour in peanut oil to cover the egg yolks. Spare.
-
Convert 160k of syrup into a container, add 2k of syrup and stir evenly. Add half of the peanut oil and mix well, then add the other half and mix well. Sift in flour. Mix slowly with a spatula to form a dough.
-
Form into dough and set aside for 1 hour.
-
Wrap the egg yolk with the prepared bean paste, roll into a ball and set aside.
-
After the dough has rested for 1 hour, cut it into small pieces of 25 grams, wrap it in bean paste, and use a mooncake grinder to press it into a mooncake dough. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees for 10 minutes. Put it in the oven and spray a small amount of water on the mooncakes. Bake for a few minutes, take out to cool, apply egg wash, and bake again for 10 minutes.

Baked mooncakes, wait for them to return to oil.............
