Step 1
First we make water-oil skin. Put the water-oil skin ingredients into a plate and add water slowly.Step 2
Knead into grits.Step 3
Knead it into a ball, it doesn’t need to be smooth.Step 4
Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 20 minutes.Step 5
Next, make the puff pastry. Put the ingredients for the puff pastry into a basin. You can use medium to high flour for the puff pastry.Step 6
Knead into grits.Step 7
Knead evenly, form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 20 minutes.Step 8
While it's resting, let's prepare the stuffing first and wash the onions.Step 9
Chop the green onions into chopped green onions and mince the ginger.Step 10
Add seasonings to the minced pork.Step 11
Stir in one direction until thickened.Step 12
Add chopped green onion and minced ginger.Step 13
Stir evenly in one direction and set aside.Step 14
Then I took out the watery and oily skin that had just relaxed. Now it looked rough, and it immediately transformed.Step 15
The relaxed dough will become very smooth after kneading for a while.Step 16
Then divide the water-oil skin and puff pastry into ten portions, with 23g of water-you-skin each and 13 grams of puff pastry each.Step 17
Flatten the water-oil skin and put a puff pastry on it.Step 18
Slowly wrap the watery dough around the pastry.Step 19
Close the mouth tightly.Step 20
After wrapping them all, cover them with plastic wrap and take them one by one.Step 21
Take out a piece of dough, with the seam facing up, and shape it into an oval shape.Step 22
Roll up from one end, with the seam facing up.Step 23
Roll up all the dough and cover it with plastic wrap, one by one.Step 24
Take out one piece of dough with the seam facing up.Step 25
Grow into an oval shape.Step 26
Roll it up from one end, with the seam facing the bottom, and cover it with plastic wrap to prevent the skin from drying out and cracking when you roll it out. After rolling up the skin, preheat the oven to 170/170°C.Step 27
Then weigh 30g of meat filling and place it on the plastic wrap.Step 28
Tighten until the meat filling forms a round ball.Step 29
Divide the meat filling into 10 30g balls.Step 30
Take out a piece of dough, with the seam facing down, flatten it slightly with your hands, then roll it into a round shape that is slightly thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, and turn it over.Step 31
Put in a meat filling.Step 32
Shut up.Step 33
Then use our tiger's mouth to slowly tighten and pinch.Step 34
Smooth the wrinkles on the edges as much as possible, and tighten the edges.Step 35
Turn over, with the seam facing bottom.Step 36
Flatten gently with your hands.Step 37
Place on baking sheet.Step 38
Place a baking tray on the middle shelf of the preheated oven and bake at 170/170°C for 30 minutes. Because my baking tray was too light, the shortbread expanded and lifted up the baking tray during baking, so I added 5 more at the end. The plate presses on the baking pan to increase the weight. It must have a certain weight to make the cake bake flat. You can measure this weight. The heavier it is, the flatter it will be.Step 39
Because the size and temperature of each oven are different, you have to check the coloring and bake until the surface and bottom are golden, which will take about 30 minutes.Step 40
It was unreasonably crispy. I forgot to add a little dark soy sauce when I made this stuffing. I added it in the recipe later, so the color of my meat is slightly white.A little angry.Step 41
But it doesn’t affect the taste, but the color is not that attractive. Just look at the layered meringue and forgive me. My memory is really amazing, I hope you all like it. Cooking tips for fresh meat mooncakes1. Watery and oily skin does not need to be kneaded until it is smooth at first. You only need to relax it for 20 minutes before kneading it. It will naturally become smooth easily.
2. As for the pastry, as mentioned above, both medium, high and low gluten are acceptable, because gluten will be produced when flour meets water. There is no water in the pastry, so all medium, high and low gluten are acceptable.
3. In terms of fillings, remember to add a little dark soy sauce! The color will look much better!
