Step 1
Prepare the required materials: plastic wrap and two empty potsStep 2
After weighing the syrup, cooking oil, and alkaline water, use a spatula or the head of a whisk to mix evenly.Step 3
Stir until it becomes cloudy and no oil floats on top, then it is even.Step 4
Pour the weighed flour into the stirred syrup and mix it evenly. You need to use your hands for this part because it is sticky and you need to use your hands faster.Step 5
After mixing well, wrap it in plastic wrap and let the dough rest at room temperature to wake up.Step 6
While the dough is resting, start making the filling. Add the appropriate amount of meat floss according to your favorite taste.Step 7
Mochi is wrapped in salted egg filling. After the filling is prepared, seal it with plastic wrap to avoid moisture loss.Step 8
Divide the risen dough into 15 equal portions and set asideStep 9
Take a piece of dough and roll it out to make it easier to wrap the stuffing. Use the tiger's mouth to slowly wrap it up.Step 10
After wrapping, roll it into a round shape and make it evenly distributed.Step 11
Put it into the mold and press it to form it.Step 12
The prepared mooncakes should be covered with plastic wrap, otherwise they will easily crack after being baked for a long time.Step 13
Bake in the middle rack of the oven at 200 degrees for five minutes. After setting, take it out and brush with a layer of egg yolk. It doesn’t need to be too much. Just a thin layer is enough. One egg yolk can be used to brush many mooncakes.Step 14
Just continue with the middle level at 200 degrees for 15 minutes and it will be fineStep 15
Freshly roasted, the mochi can be drawn into stringy texture and tastes salty and sweet.Step 16
This is without mochi, the freshly baked mooncake skin is crispyStep 17
Bake a lot and prepare to give them awayStep 18
After cooling, package it. The freshly made mooncake skin is relatively hard. It needs to be left for about 5 days to recover the oil, so that the skin will become softer and more delicious.Step 19
Just waiting to be sealed! BeautifulStep 20
I made a large plate with more than 100 pieces, and I was exhausted! Mid-Autumn Mooncake (salted egg yolk, meat floss and mochi)cooking skillsI started making mooncakes again after a few years, and I have already posted the same recipe. This is the second time I have posted it. Please note that the plastic wrap must be covered throughout the process, because it is slower for newbies to make it. Over time, the fillings and skin will become damaged. It will be dry. It will crack easily when baking. If it is really dry, spray a little water on the mooncake when baking
