Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Method for making oil crust: sift the flour, add lard, fine sugar and water, mix well, knead until the surface is smooth, cover with plastic wrap and let stand for half an hour.

   

2. 2 Pastry: sift the low flour, add lard and mix well until smooth and not sticky. Divide into 16 pieces, about 12g each.

   

3. 3 Divide the pastry.

   

4. 4 While the oil skin is resting and relaxing, make the filling and cut the egg yolks in half. I used salted eggs that I pickled myself and they were cooked. The raw ones are uncomfortable. Of course, you can buy ready-made salted egg yolks.

   

5. 5 Divide the black sesame filling into 16 equal parts, about 25g each. Cover with egg yolk.

   

6. 6 All wrapped up. This filling needs to be wrapped carefully, because the filling is very sticky and inconvenient to handle. If it is not wrapped well, the position of the egg yolk on the cut surface of the baked egg yolk puff pastry will not look good, and there may be places where the black sesame filling is not wrapped.

   

7. 7 Divide the rested dough into 16 pieces, about 19 grams each, wrap them in puff pastry, and seal them upward.

   

8. 8 All wrapped up

   

9. 9 Take one part and roll it out into the shape of beef tongue. Try to roll it out as long as possible, so that after rolling it up, it will be baked with more layers.

   

10. 10 Roll up from top to bottom, close up and let rest for 15 minutes.

    

11. 11 Roll it out again into a ox tongue shape, roll it up, and close it downwards. Relax for 20 minutes.

    

12. 12 Take one part, close it upward, and pinch both ends together with your fingers.

    

13. 13 Roll it into a round piece and wrap it with black sesame and egg yolk filling.

    

14. 14 Knead tightly

    

15. 15 Do it all in order, close the mouth downward and slightly shape it.

    

16. 16 Coat with egg yolk liquid, sprinkle with black sesame seeds, preheat the oven to 180 degrees, set the upper and lower heat to the middle layer for 30-35 minutes.
