Homemade purple potato pastry moon cakes are loved by husband and children
The Mid Autumn Festival is coming, and the greedy insects in my mouth are popping out again. Tired of the traditional moon cakes on the market, I want to make some new tricks. My husband likes to eat crispy moon cakes, so I searched the Internet for the relevant information about the practice of crispy moon cakes, and began to beat drums in the kitchen. Finally, I made this purple potato crispy moon cake. Because I published an article "the practice of making self-made ice moon cakes"（ http://home.meishichina.com/recipe-141919.html ）Article. Some friends hope I can share more posts about homemade moon cakes, so I asked my husband to record my homemade pastry moon cakes completely. I hope you like it and have a good mid autumn festival.1. I bought salted egg yolk, cloud legs and lard in supermarkets. Generally, they are sold in larger supermarkets.2. I bought low gluten flour, powdered sugar and small paper cups from the same online store.3. I bought tin foil from another shop on the Internet.In the above specific steps, the online shopping addresses of these pastry moon cake materials are listed, which can save you some time and facilitate your production.I hope that after DIY, you can also paste the self-made picture of pastry mooncakes and share the practice of pastry mooncakes together!
Step 1 . First, put some rum on the salted egg yolk and bake it for 6-7 minutes at 180 degrees in the oven. (It's good to use rice wine without rum.) But in order to get more crisp and fragrant egg yolk stuffing, I was good at proposing to change the time to 10 minutes, and that's the result... I can't pass anything~!
Step 2 . Here are 10 pieces of prosciutto fillings. I don't like the sweet pastry moon cakes very much, so I only wrapped a few gold fillings. Some of them were not wrapped at all, and they were made into walnut sized ones. After finishing, you can freeze it in the refrigerator for a while, which is easier to wrap.
Step 3 . There are 20 egg yolk fillings in total. The general practice is to use 20 grams of gold filling to wrap a quarter or half of the egg yolk. But my husband and I both like the yolk inside a little more, so we just use the whole yolk as the filling. This is a small egg yolk, wrapped with a little golden pastry.
Step 4 . This is a big egg yolk, which can be used as filling directly.
Step 5 . This is the most important role in making moon cakes: lard. Generally, the mooncakes sold outside do not use lard. They use artificial lard, which is the vegetable oil that is hydrogenated into solid oil, so it contains some trans fatty acids, but the cost is lower. I didn't boil lard by myself, so I bought some from the supermarket.
Step 6 . Make up the oil crust (250g of low flour, 40g of sugar powder, 100g of lard, 70g of water) and pastry (170g of low flour, 30g of purple potato powder, 100g of lard) respectively. Note: The oil skin should be kneaded vigorously until it is out of gluten. When the pastry moon cake is wrapped at the back, it will be flexible enough for shaping. As for the degree of gluten production, I'm not sure. After all, it's low gluten flour. My practice is to knead it continuously for 20 minutes before stopping. The rubbed oil skin is very shiny, round and tenacious. Then separate 30g of oil crust and 20g of pastry and knead them into small balls (2 pastry mooncakes can be made).
Step 7 . Wrap pastry in oil. Slowly pull up the oil skin with the tiger's mouth. I bought all the low gluten flour and sugar powder from the Internet. After all, they are all available online, and they have changed from supermarket to supermarket. low-gluten flour: http://126.am/difen Sugar powder: http://126.am/tangfen Purple potato flour can also be bought online, but I made it by hand. I'd like to share it with you: peel and cut purple sweet potatoes into thin slices, sun them in the sun for a day or two, and grind them into fine powder particles with a blender.
Step 8 . Then close the mouth.
Step 9 . With the mouth closed up, roll the skin for the first time, about 15cm long.
Step 10 . Then roll it into a roll.
Step 11 . Roll out the skin for the second time. To adjust the pattern of the center of the circle, you can do it at this time: for example, cut a little of the white oil skin at one end, place it at the other end, and roll it again.
Step 12 . Then roll it into a roll (starting from the end of the pastry)
Step 13 . Then cut it in half with a knife
Step 14 . The cut of the roll is downward
Step 15 . Flatten the roll
Step 16 . Wrap the filling like the pastry just now, and arrange the shape.
Step 17 . I tried to roll it only once, and the effect was that the two with more pastries in the middle could not achieve the desired pattern of the pastry moon cake. The two on the right are not made by children according to rules, ha ha~~
Step 18 . Then bake the pastry moon cake in the oven for 35 minutes (180 degrees). It can be covered with tin foil after 20 minutes, and the color will be more beautiful. I bought small paper cups, and my husband helped me separate them one by one. It's very suitable for filling crisp pastry moon cakes. If you don't have an electric oven, you can also try to bake in a microwave oven. However, you should pay attention to that combination BBQ 1 must be used, which is microwave 30% and barbecue 70%. This is very important. If you choose the wrong one, you will get half the result with twice the effort. Sold here: http://126.am/xizhi
Step 19 . The appearance of our own crispy moon cake after baking... After tasting it, it's really super crispy. There's not too much yolk in it. It's delicious. It's hard to imagine that I can make my own pastry moon cakes, and the taste is not inferior to that of big brands.
Step 20 . Layers of pastry are clearly visible... Put the pastry moon cake in a small paper cup. The small paper cups in this shop are more beautiful, like strawberries: http://126.am/zhibei
Step 21 . Although I know that a lot of lard is used, I can't help eating and eating. There was a small party last night. I brought it to every mother and doll, and forced them to ask for a lot of praise. Whoa ha ha... If you like to eat ice skin moon cakes, you can also go to see this article I wrote before, "How to eat ice skin moon cakes": http://home.meishichina.com/recipe-141919.html The taste of ice-cream mooncakes is relatively cool, and the practice of ice-cream mooncakes does not require an electric oven, which is relatively convenient.
