Steps

  1. Water-oil dough: 200g flour, 80g lard, 55g water, 50g sugar. Mix the water-oil dough and knead it into a smooth water-oil dough. Leave it to rest for 20 minutes (it doesn’t have to be smooth, just about right. The resting time can be adjusted according to the temperature)

  2. Pastry ingredients: 120g flour, 60g lard, mix the pastry ingredients, knead into a smooth pastry dough, let rest for 20 minutes (the pastry is easier to knead smooth than the water-based dough, and it will become smooth after a little kneading)

  9. Brush with egg yolk liquid and sprinkle with sesame seeds (I did not use pure sesame seeds, but crushed the sesame candy and used it, so there are peanuts in it) 180 degrees middle level, 60 minutes (my electric oven is a small Changdi oven with only 12L. A high-end oven should only take 20 minutes. You can cut it open to see if the flour inside is cooked. Wait until the egg yolk liquid turns slightly brown, then it is almost done)
