Peach Mountain Skin Mooncake
White kidney beans 400g | Water 1100ml |
Milk powder 50g | Maltose 90g |
White sugar 200g | Corn oil 70g |
Step 1
First wash the white kidney beans, then add 1100 ml of water, and then wrap the skin on them. If the white kidney beans are still hard, continue soaking until they can be easily broken apart by hand, and that's it! Because white kidney beans are relatively dry, it’s better to soak them before proceeding to the next step!Step 2
Then, don't pour away the water, put it into a pressure cooker or rice cooker to cook the white kidney beans. If there is excess water in the pot, pour it out, and then put it into a food processor and mash it! Pass the blended white kidney beans through a sieve! If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a rolling pin to crush it and sift it like I did! This step must not be omitted, even if your food processor is very fine, it still needs to be sieved!Step 3
Pour 20 grams of water into the pan (this amount of water is in addition to the amount). You can feel from the picture that my cooked white kidney beans are very dry. If your white kidney beans are still very thin after stirring, you can consider not using them. Add more water or reduce the amount of water! Add milk powder to the white bean paste, then stir-fry, add white sugar, and keep the heat low until the white bean paste is dry. When the white bean paste is dry, add maltose and continue stir-frying to get out the water as much as possible!Step 4
Put the corn oil in the bread machine, pour in the white bean paste and turn on the kneading function and mix for half an hour! Just like that, the original Taoshan peel is ready!Step 5
For matcha-flavored Momoyama peel, you can increase or decrease the amount of matcha powder according to your needs. If the dough feels dry after adding matcha powder, you can add a small amount of oil and malt.Mix it with sugar, but it must be completely mixed before use!Step 6
To make coffee-flavored Momoyama bark ~ I used 80 grams of original bark, 6 grams of cappuccino instant coffee powder and 4 grams of cocoa powder. First, mix 4 grams of oil and cocoa powder and coffee powder evenly, so that the coffee powder can be mixed Dissolve the sugar properly and knead it evenly with the white peel until it becomes fine and ready to use!Step 7
You can also create your own and add some materials you like! In short, the skin must be made very delicate!Step 8
Wrap in your favorite fillings and let’s bake! Cooking Tips for Peach Mountain Skin MooncakesThe prepared white skin can be stored in the refrigerator, but it is best to use a sealed bag! Pour a small amount of oil into it! If the skin becomes dry during the making process, do not add water, just add a small amount of oil and knead evenly! After filling in the fillings, bake in the middle of the oven at 170 or 180 degrees for 10 minutes! The baked skin is a little hard, which is normal. It will become very moist after 3 days of oiling. It is best to store it in the refrigerator when the weather is hot! The matcha powder I used is from Seiran! What I make is 50 grams each, with 15 grams of skin and 35 grams of filling!
