Old Beijing Mahjong Cake (oven version)

Overview

I have made this mahjong pancake once before. There was no oven at that time. I made it in the oven today. The main thing about this sesame paste pancake is the making of sauce. I learned this when I was making noodles at Jingfuhua Fei Niu. This recipe was learned by the head chef in Beijing. It is confidential and will not be shared with others. But here we want to share it with everyone. This sesame paste pancake sells very well in that store. To be honest, this sesame paste cake is not acceptable to everyone. Its taste is quite special. For example, it is like durian. If you don’t accept the taste, it will feel unpalatable. Once you like to eat it, you will become addicted. It is the same as this sesame paste cake. They all have a relatively extreme taste. I later became very fond of eating it. If you like it, you can try it and start making it now~
