【Milk Pastry Purple Sweet Potato Pie】--- About that beautiful secret

Overview

Pie is a relatively simple and quick snack, and it’s not troublesome to make it when you want to eat it. You can choose its fillings at will, allowing us to try different flavors. Each different combination of fillings and pie crust will bring different surprises. This time I made milky purple sweet potato filling. Purple sweet potato is rich in nutrients and has special health care functions. It has a high fiber content. In addition to the nutrients of ordinary sweet potatoes, it is also rich in selenium and anthocyanins. For female friends, it is a rare good food. When the purple sweet potato is not steamed, its purple color is very beautiful, which is a romantic color that I have always liked. However, friends who have cooked it know that once the purple sweet potato is steamed, it will turn a bit blue-gray and lose its original beautiful color. It even feels a bit regretful. In fact, there is a way to keep it charming and dreamy. That is to add a little lemon juice to the purple sweet potato puree to keep the pH value of the purple sweet potato acidic. Although the color is red when it is first added, it will return to its original beautiful purple color after baking. The purple sweet potato snack made in this way is particularly attractive. This may not be very clear, let’s look at the steps.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Raw material picture.

   

2. 2 Wash the purple potatoes, peel them, cut them into small pieces and steam them in a pot.

   

3. 3 Put the steamed purple sweet potato into a bowl while hot, add butter, and press it with a spoon to form purple sweet potato puree.

   

4. 4 Add milk and condensed milk.

   

5. 5 Continue to press to mix evenly. (At this time, the purple sweet potato is very dark in color because it has been steamed)

   

6. 6 Squeeze in a little lemon juice and mix well. At this time, the color of the purple sweet potato will turn red. It doesn't matter. It will return to its original beautiful purple color after baking. (I squeezed in about 10 drops of lemon juice. You can keep an eye on it as you add it. It’s ok if the color changes.)

   

7. 7 Open the pastry and divide it into the amount you need. Each portion needs a piece of pie base and an appropriate amount of strips for covering.

   

8. 8 Take a piece of pie crust, put the purple sweet potato puree into a piping bag, and squeeze it evenly on the pie crust. (You don’t need a piping tip when squeezing. Or you can apply it directly with a spoon. I like squeezing so it’s even and doesn’t get all over the place.)

   

9. 9 Start by laying out small strips in the same direction.

   

10. 10 Weave the other half of the strips like a basket.

    

11. 11 Turn up the small strips on the four sides slightly in turn, apply a layer of egg liquid, and continue to cover after applying.

    

12. 12 Use a knife to cut off the excess edges to form a complete pie.

    

13. 13 Brush the surface with egg wash and place in a baking pan.

    

14. 14 After making it in sequence, put it in the preheated oven at 200 degrees, middle layer, upper and lower heat, and cook for about 20 minutes until the surface is golden.
