Ingredients
Steps
-
Prepare 2 bowls to make water-oil crust (150g gluten flour + 50g lard, knead into powder, slowly add water and knead evenly, the blue bowl in the picture is water-oil crust); puff pastry (120g low-gluten flour + 60g lard, knead into the stainless steel bowl in the picture), seal with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
Divide the 2 medium doughs into 12 small doughs. You can order more. I only have 12 points for the rose sauce I made myself, so there is no way.
-
Wrap the small puff pastry with a larger puff pastry
-
Roll 12 pieces of dough into rolls respectively, with the seal facing up, cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 20 minutes
-
Flatten again in the same way, roll it up again, seal side down, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
-
Seal both ends of the dough roll with your thumbs, roll it into a round crust (a rolling pin will work, but not too thin), add rose paste, and brush twice with whole egg wash (just one egg + honey beaten evenly, I brushed too much egg wash and it dripped). Finally, sprinkle sesame seeds on each raw cake and put it in a preheated oven at 180 degrees (upper and lower layers) and bake for 18 minutes. You can eat it. The skin is crispy and tastes good.

After baking, put it on a plate
