Time is the Taste of Happiness Dried Fruit Pound Cake
In the first season of the documentary "A Bite of China", there was an episode "The Taste of Time". The first sentence mentioned that time is food's best friend, and time is also food's mortal enemy. In order to preserve food, people use many ancient methods to process food, such as pickling, air-drying, and brewing. In addition to preserving food, they have unexpectedly obtained a taste that is completely different from fresh food, and sometimes even more mellow and delicious. While time allows some delicacies to decay, it also develops the fragrant and charming flavor of certain ingredients, and this is exactly the case with today's dried fruit pound cake. Pound cake's status in the cake world is like vanilla ice cream in the ice cream world. It is the basic among basics and the classic among classics. The pound cake originated in England in the 18th century. At that time, the pound cake only had four equal ingredients, one pound of sugar, one pound of flour, one pound of eggs, and one pound of butter. With the diversification of recipes, today's pound cakes have become quite diversified and have rich flavors. The first time I tried baking pound cake was in the summer of 2014. I chose Junzhi’s lemon pound cake recipe, which had a particularly refreshing taste. Some time ago, by chance, I had the chance to read the dried fruit pound cake recipe by Mr. Kobato (this dried fruit pound cake recipe is slightly modified based on Mr. Kobato's recipe). The rich dried fruits and nuts exude a natural fragrance. The baked cake must not only be poured with rum syrup, but must also be refrigerated for three days before it can be eaten. The best tasting period is after fifteen days. The overall flavor and texture of such a multi-layered cake are really wonderful due to the time of brewing. You are used to the delicateness of cream, you have tasted the smoothness of mousse, you have tasted the softness of chiffon, you have savored the richness of cheese... Please don't forget that there is another taste in this world which is the mellow and intoxicating pound cake. The thick milky aroma, the sweetness of dried fruits, the crispness of nuts and the looming aroma of wine. Under the simple appearance, it is unabashed simplicity and kindness. It is the slightly alcoholic white bread when we were young, the wafers in the school canteen, and the white bread during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lotus seed paste, fried fried corns during the Spring Festival... It is them, but it is not them. It is the sum of the tastes in our memories, and then it is divided into the mood of eating snacks as a child, and the unique simple happiness of having delicious food as a child. Wait for fifteen days in exchange for a sweetness; wait for fifteen days in exchange for the gift of delicious food; wait because time gives this pound cake the taste of happiness...
