Mooncake
Lye water substitute
1/4 tsp baking soda
200gr water
Cook 5 minutes on high heat
Let it cool, ready to use
80gr Golden syrup (can be replaced with honey like I used for this video)
30gr vegetable oil or peanut oil (I use coconut oil)
8gr lye water (there are many who sell it in the market or online, the price is cheap)
150gr medium protein flour
50gr moon mooncake mold
15gr dough
Ingredients 35gr
75gr moon mooncake mold
25gr dough
Ingredients 50gr
For other sizes, ask Ms. Google, because I've never made one
How to bake
1. Bake at 170-180C fire up and down + fan for 5 minutes. Remove and then spray evenly with water
2. Bake again at 170C fire up and down + fan for 5 minutes. Remove and brush the egg yolk 2x
3. Bake at 160C on top and bottom fire + fan for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes turn the pan
NOTES
For stuffing with salted egg yolk, the mooncake size should be above 100gr, 75gr is still ok, but later the filling is more likely to be salted egg.
For Ferrero stuffing, the size of the mooncake should be 125gr so that the results of the mooncake can be printed perfectly and fit the portion of the filling with Ferrero
Mooncake should be eaten 1-2 days after it is cooked.
Store mooncake in a closed container
For the mooncake filling, it should not be too soft, the mooncake will be slanted.
Print and press with a little force, press 3-4 times so that the motif is printed perfectly (this is for a lot of line motifs, if the motifs are large, 3x maximum is enough)
The spread should not be thick, just thin
Egg yolks for spread are mixed with white water, no need for milk, the results are even less beautiful
Ash water can be bought online and can be stored for years, the price is also cheap. Usually in traditional markets there are those who sell, look for a grocery store that usually sells Chinese people
