Wife cake

Overview

This is the first time I have made wife cakes. Since I started baking, it is the only pastry that has not failed. It may also be because I have accumulated some experience in the past three years. (*^__^*) Hehe... The steps for making wife cakes are very similar to making croissants, except that wife cakes do not add baking powder, while croissants do. The croissants still need to be chilled to delay fermentation. This wife's cake uses lard, which is specially shaved from lean meat by the chef in the supermarket. Two pounds of suet can make 1 and a half pounds of lard. It is also easy to shorten with butter. Do not use peanut oil or soybean oil. After the lard is cooked, put it in the refrigerator for two hours, and then it can be refined into jelly.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare C filling first. Roast the sesame seeds in advance in the oven at 200 degrees for 5 minutes and set aside. Then put the other fillings except the glutinous rice flour into the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. After turning to low heat, immediately add the glutinous rice flour and mix well, then add the sesame seeds, mix well and turn off the heat. Let the filling cool and set aside.

   

2. 2 Next, make water-oil skin, which is ingredient A water-oil skin. Mix all flour, sugar, whole egg liquid, lard, and water evenly. Knead it into a smooth and soft dough. Be sure to knead it into a soft dough that is easy to fold.

   

3. 3 Then make the pastry, which is all the ingredients of ingredient B. Mix flour and lard. Keep kneading until it forms a ball.

   

4. 4 The pastry and water-based dough are ready

   

5. 5 Flatten the watery dough on the bottom, and flatten the pastry on top. This is the simplest and time-saving method, and the taste difference between the wife cake and the wife cake made with small ingredients is very small.

   

6. 6 Circle the dough

   

7. 7 Rush into a long strip

   

8. 8 Circle it again

   

9. 9 Rush into a long strip

   

10. 10 Just fold the quilt twice

    

11. 11 Stretch it into long strips by hand, easy to cut into small pieces

    

12. 12 After cutting into small pieces, do not roll them into round shapes. Cut them into square pieces in the direction directly above the quilt, otherwise the layering of the quilt will be destroyed. Pour in the filling and seal into a 4.5 cm diameter round shape.

    

13. 13 This recipe can make 26 wife pancakes. Place them on a baking sheet and let them rest for 15 minutes

    

14. 14 At this time, you can brush with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds. You need to cut three lines on the dough. They must be cut and penetrated to prevent the wife cake from expanding too much when heated and preventing the heat from coming out.

    

15. 15 Place in a preheated oven at 200 degrees and bake for about 20 minutes, until the surface is golden brown.

    

16. 16 When presented on the plate, it must be baked until golden brown, it will look very attractive
