Cantonese traditional five-nut mooncake

Overview

Five-nut mooncake. This is a classic you can never tire of. Although, that year, I heard that it was criticized. Wuren is actually a very general concept. It can be a specific real number, that is, there are actually five kinds of nuts; it can also be an uncertain virtual reference, which only indicates that there are more types of nuts. On the other hand, even if the five kernels are the real five kinds of nuts. Which five kernels are different will vary according to the preferences of each family in each region. Therefore, although Wuren mooncake has a definite name, it does not have a definite taste. It will undergo endless changes as the fruit material changes. For some traditional and classic flavors, the taste of Wuren is often certain. For example, it is said that olive kernels must be used in traditional five-nut mooncakes in Guangdong - this should be related to regional products. Therefore, the traditional five-nut filling will have its own unique taste. Moreover, it seems that the price of olive kernels is higher than that of ordinary nuts such as peanuts and melon seeds. Therefore, it is said that any mooncake that uses peanuts and other nuts instead is called shoddy and cannot be considered authentic. However, peanuts are a must-have in five-nut mooncakes since I was a snack. For so many years, I have been eating inferior products. However, even such defective products are still loved by people. Olive kernels are not easy to find. Even a small amount is not worth going to Taobao. As a last resort, I have to replace it with peanuts, etc. and pass it off as inferior. Don't be superstitious about the formula. Dry first, then wet, oil first, then wine, and finally water. As a result, before the wine was poured out, the dryness and humidity of the filling were already ideal. If you add all the ingredients at once regardless of the actual situation, I'm afraid the filling will become soft and difficult to form. Thank you for being more cautious. If you're not in Guangdong, you can't eat five-nut mooncakes with olive kernels, but this unorthodox five-nut mooncake still tastes good.
