Egg yolk cake
Overview
Egg yolk puff pastry is a Chinese pastry that is very delicious. The taste and texture are the best when they are freshly baked. The skin is crispy and the inside is soft and delicate. The texture is simply amazing...

Ingredients
Steps
-
Put all the A dough ingredients into a clean basin and mix evenly with a spatula, then knead it into a smooth dough. Knead as much as possible to make the dough stretch and stretch into a film, so that it will not become crispy when rolling out
-
Put the pastry ingredients B in the same bowl and use a spatula to stir evenly into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes
-
While relaxing the dough, you can make the filling in advance. Crack the salted duck eggs, take out the yolks, wash them and set aside
-
Divide the bean paste into 16 evenly sized portions, roll them into balls, flatten them, add salted egg yolks and roll them into balls for later use. I accidentally bought one less salted egg so I only made 15. The recipe is for 16 pieces!
-
After all the egg yolks are wrapped, you can work on the pastry. First divide the pastry and pastry into 15 evenly sized portions, flatten the pastry and wrap the pastry. [Can be divided into 16 portions. I am missing an egg yolk and can only make 15 portions. The recipe can make 16]
-
After wrapping, use a rolling pin to roll it into a beef tongue shape, roll it up, cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest for 15 minutes
-
After it has rested, continue to roll it into a beef tongue shape. When rolling it out, be gentle and do not break the dough to prevent it from becoming crispy. Cover it with plastic wrap again and wait for 15 minutes
-
Pick up one and press it in the middle with your fingers, so that the two ends are raised and pressed toward the middle
-
Roll out the pastry thinly and place it in the indented bag to seal it tightly with the seam facing down
-
After wrapping, place on a baking sheet and brush with egg yolk. Sprinkle an appropriate amount of black sesame seeds on the surface
-
Place in the middle rack of the preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes
-
After baking, take it out and place it on a net to dry before eating. I like the freshly baked egg yolk cake the most
