Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the salted egg yolk in cooking oil for one to two hours to remove the fishy smell.

   

2. 2 Use kitchen paper to absorb the oil on the surface of the soaked salted egg yolk, then steam for 8 minutes.

   

3. 3 Pour the invert syrup, peanut oil, and water into a bowl, and mix evenly with a manual egg beater.

   

4. 4 Sift flour into syrup.

   

5. 5 Gently stir with a spatula to form a dough. If the freshly mixed dough is very sticky, cover it with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for more than 1 hour.

   

6. 6 Peel and steam purple sweet potatoes, add milk and mash them into puree.

   

7. 7 Add pork floss and mix well.

   

8. 8 Divide into small portions of about 25g.

   

9. 9 Take a portion of purple sweet potato and meat floss filling and wrap it with a salted egg yolk.

   

10. 10 Tie it up, roll it into a round shape, and wrap the egg yolk in the center.

    

11. 11 Divide the crust into 12g portions. Generally speaking, the ratio of skin to filling is 2:8 or 3:7.

    

12. 12 Take a piece of pie crust and flatten it in the center of your hand. Place a portion of the egg yolk-coated filling on the crust and press the crust tightly. Cooperate with each other with your left and right hands, use the tiger's mouth of your left hand to slowly push the mooncake skin, and use your fingers to continuously turn the skin and filling so that the skin is slowly and evenly wrapped around the filling.

    

13. 13 After wrapping, carefully close the mouth.

    

14. 14 Sprinkle some cooked flour into the mooncake mold, press the mouth of the mold with your palm, shake it a few times to spread the flour evenly in the mold, then pour out the excess flour, and put the mooncake embryo into the mold.

    

15. 15 Place the mooncakes on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper.

    

16. 16 After everything is done, spray a layer of mist on the surface of the mooncake embryo.

    

17. 17 Place in the preheated oven at 175 degrees, middle layer, upper and lower heat, bake for 5 minutes before taking it out.

    

18. 18 Brush the surface with a thin layer of egg yolk water.

    

19. 19 Put it back in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes, until the surface is golden brown.

    

20. 20 Cut in half, the salty aroma of the egg yolk hits your nose.
