Step1:Prepare raw materials, conversion syrup, Jianshui and fillings. If you can't make them yourself, you can do it through Taobao.
Step2:Mix the syrup and water. Mix well. The mixing time will take about 2 minutes until there are many small bubbles.
Step3:Pour in the peanut oil and continue to stir. The stirring time is about 2 minutes. Stir until emulsification occurs. The mixture will become very thick.
Step4:Sift in medium gluten flour. Mix well. Then refrigerate for an hour and a half. Be careful not to rub the flour with your hands to avoid gluten. If you don't have medium gluten flour at home, you can replace it with ordinary flour at home. It doesn't matter. I tried it. You can use it at ease.
Step5:During the cold storage of dough, weigh out the stuffing. Each stuffing, duck egg yolk and red lotus paste, is 43g in total. Cut the yolk in half. Weigh out half of the yolk and the red lotus stuffing. Set aside 43 grams each. Then, knead the lotus filling round and press it flat. Wrap in the egg yolk. One egg yolk and lotus filling is ready. Make 10 in total. Generally speaking, half of the yolk of duck egg is 3 grams, and then 40 grams of red lotus paste are weighed. One filling is fine. A total of 10 can be weighed. Here's an explanation. Generally speaking, a duck egg yolk is 6G. Half of it is 3G. So I say that the filling of lotus seed paste is 40g. But it doesn't rule out that the amount of duck egg yolk you buy is different. And you like to pack a whole duck egg yolk. Anyway, as long as you make sure that the filling of egg yolk and red lotus is 43g, you can. Note. At most, it's 43g. Don't weigh it too much, because for beginners, if the filling is wrapped Too large. If the total weight exceeds 63 grams, it will overflow during the pressing process and affect the final quality of the moon cake. Therefore, the filling should be strictly controlled below 43 grams.
Step6:Take out the dough and weigh out 20 grams of each dough. It can be divided into 10 parts. Round the dough for use.
Step7:Press the dough flat. Try to make it as thin as possible in the middle and thick on both sides. Then put the filling in the middle of the dough.
Step8:Use the tiger's mouth to push the sides inward. Pay attention not to expose the filling. Wrap it well and make it round. This process can be slow. Patient. In fact, it's very good. As long as the action is slow, there will be no mistakes.
