This afternoon, i decided to make some mooncake since i got a kg of lotus paste bought from Ng Ming Huat in JB. This is very easy as i followed aunty yochana recipe accordingly.
Wish everyone have a nice festive gathering.
For Mooncake Pastry:
350gm Hong Kong Flour
90 gm Oil
200gm Mooncake syrup
1-1/4tsp alkaline water
Method:
1. Mix the above ingredients together in a mixing bowl(dont use any mixer machine) by hand mix will do. Rest for an hour before moulding it with lotus paste.
2. Mix 30gm of roasted melon seed into the paste, weight the lotus paste and egg yolk at 48gm. (i have soaked my yolk with wine and bake for 8mins under 160C)
3. Wrap with about 26gm of pastry and press into mooncake mould. Knock out from mould and bake the mooncake for 9mins at 200C, cool slightly then brush with egg
glaze, then re-bake again for another 8 mins at 170C
*Remarks: egg glaze: 1 yolk + 1/2 egg white plus drop of egg coloring
