The shape of jujube cake is very beautiful. It's a traditional Chinese pastry. It's similar to egg yolk pastry. But it's a little bit troublesome when shaping the back. The beautiful flower shape with rich jujube fragrance is absolutely amazing. It's hard to make jujube stuffing. I'll teach you how to get it quickly. It's much easier.
Step1:Make pastry dough first, and then make tarpaulin. So you don't need to use two pots to knead the pastry and tarpaulin into dough respectively. Then wrap it with plastic wrap and let it stand for 30 minutes.
Step2:First of all, let's talk about this stuffing. As we all know, it's hard to make dates. Sometimes, when we stir fry dates, we feel like we don't have the strength to make cakes. So today, I recommend a simpler way for you. It's to buy a bag of gelatinous dates outside. Put on disposable gloves. Cut them one by one. Check for any residual nuclei. Make sure you pick it up.
Step3:Steam it for half an hour. Steam it softer and more thoroughly. Then mash it with a spoon. Cool it. If there is more water, put it in the microwave oven to bake for a while. It's sticky when it's hot. It won't stick when it's cool. So the stuffing can only be used when it's cool.
Step4:After half an hour, divide the pastry and the tare into ten parts on average.
Step5:Take a tare and press it flat. Then rub the pastry into a circle. Wrap it in. Close the mouth.
Step6:When they are all wrapped, roll them one by one with a rolling pin to grow the tongue. Then roll them up.
Step7:Roll them all up. Cover with plastic wrap. Let stand for half an hour.
Step8:Handle the filling while the dough is loose. At this time, the stuffing should be cool. Wear disposable gloves. Rub it into ten balls. Put them into the freezer for freezing. In order to wait for a good package.
Step9:Half an hour later, roll it into a tongue shape again with a rolling pin. Then roll it up.
Step10:Cover with plastic wrap again. Let stand for half an hour.
Step11:Half an hour later. (after the second relaxation. After completion). Take one and stand up. Then press it flat. Then roll it into a circle with a rolling pin.
Step12:After rolling them all into pieces, take out the jujube stuffing from the freezer, wrap it in the crust, and then close the mouth.
Step13:After all of them are wrapped, go to a place and press it slightly. Then use a knife or clean scissors to cut it into 12 petals or so. It's better to cut 12 petals. Then twist it in one direction.
Step14:After all, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Brush the center of the flower with a little egg liquid. Then sprinkle sesame seeds on it. Place it in the baking tray. Put it into the lower layer of the preheated oven for about half an hour and then it will be out of the oven. Be careful not to bake too yellow.
