Bean paste cake

Bean paste cake

Overview

This is a really great recipe. Mille-feuille pastry is a Chinese pastry. I have used several recipes before, but none of them are as good as this recipe. Still at Meitian's annual food competition, I was amazed to see the warm blue six-petal flower of Food Master. Keep it in mind together. This day I finally made up my mind to make this beautiful puff pastry. Although it is a bit much, it is not difficult at all as long as you have the patience to do it. The key to making puff pastry is to make puff pastry. For this purpose, I specially bought lard and boiled it. The layering effect and taste of butter are not as good as lard. The change in style also brings a different mood. Great!
