Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

100 gram All-Purpose Flour
4 milliliter Water
70 gram Golden Syrup
25 milliliter Vegetable Oil
1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
430 gram Lotus Seed Paste
1 Egg
1 tablespoon Water

Steps:

  • In a bowl, stir Golden Syrup (70 gram), Water (4 milliliter), Vanilla Extract (1/4 teaspoon) together. Add Vegetable Oil (25 milliliter) and continue to mix well.
  • In a bigger bowl with the syrup mixture, add in All-Purpose Flour (100 gram) and mix well.
  • Gently knead the dough using a spatula till smooth, about 30 seconds. Wrap with cling wrap and leave to rest for at least 3 hours.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Dust the dough with some flour. Give the dough a light kneading to smoothen it. Divide dough into 15 gram pieces. Shape each piece of dough into a ball.
  • Divide the Lotus Seed Paste (430 gram) into 35 gram pieces. Shape those into balls as well.
  • Roll each dough ball over some flour. Dust your hands with flour and flatten each dough into a small disc.
  • Wrap it around the filling and shape it into a ball until the filling is completely covered. Dust your hands with some flour to avoid the dough from sticking.
  • Lightly dust the wrapped dough with some flour.
  • Press it into the mooncake mold and shake the mooncake out.
  • Place mooncake on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Spray some water on the mooncakes to prevent the mooncakes from cracking during baking. Bake them for 10 minutes.
  • Remove them from the oven and leave them to cool for 25 minutes. This is to prevent the filling from expanding and cause the crust to crack.
  • Mix Egg (1) and Water (1 tablespoon) for the egg wash. Brush the top of the mooncakes. Return to oven and continue to bake for another 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown.
  • Leave the mooncake to cool completely and store in air tight containers. Wait for a day for the mooncakes' skin to soften before serving.

CHINESE MOON CAKE RECIPE BY WEINING - COOKEATSHARE
In Asian countries, most people believe that Spring Festival is the well-deserved king of festivals. Others, though, would give the title to Mid-Autumn Day, a festival that invariably makes Asians abroad miss their motherland. Mid-Autumn Day, which has been with Asians for centuries, became symbolic of people returning to their families. Now, with the cultural convergence that comes with science and technology, people from around the world take part in celebrating this Festival of the Moon. The Chinese created a story of nine suns to symbolize the great difficulty in life,” said Wang. “We literally need to go back to the ancient time and enjoy the old story.” According to my grandfather, about five thousand years ago, there was a great hero in China, a famous marksman named Houyi. With his bow and arrow, he shot down eight suns to protect the Xia Dynasty. During the shooting of eight suns, his wife provided food and water with great love to help him. Finally, Houyi shot down the suns and got two precious medicines. Being given these precious medicines as a reward allowed them to begin their new life on the moon. If they had not gotten the precious medicine, the loving couple would not be able be together. One day, when the great hunter went out to work on the farm, a villain came to his home and asked for the medicines. In order to protect the precious potions, Houyi’s wife took both doses herself.
