I have tried baking traditional mooncake a few times still fail. This yr decided to try again n finally succeed, so happy! I like the skin of the mooncake and the lotus paste from KCT.


Ingredients:
187g Syrub
50g peanut oil
1 tsp alkaline water
233g Plain Flour
some sesame oil
Glazing: 1 egg yolk add 1 tbsp of water
Method:
a) Mix syrub, peanut oil, sesaem oil and alkaline water together till smooth. Then add in the flour slowly then rest for 5 hrs. The dough must not hard or too soft, if too soft or sticky need to add some more plain till no sticky.
b) Roll the dough and cut the dough to the sizes needed. Press it and wrap in the fillings.
c) Dust the dough with flour and press it into the mould.
d) Place the mooncake on the grease pan. Preheat oven 200degree and baked for 10min. Brush with egg yolk then bake again for about 10min till golden brown.
