Salted Egg Yolk and Pork Floss Lucky Bag Mooncake

My dears, let's not eat the same old mooncakes for Mid-Autumn Festival! Last year, I was obsessed with egg yolk and lotus seed paste, but this year, I'm jumping on the bandwagon and making salted egg yolk, pork floss, and red bean paste mooncakes. This recipe makes 20 using a 75g mold, and the steps are simple and foolproof. If you're craving egg yolk and lotus seed paste, you can follow this wrapper recipe and use 30g of wrapper for 45g of egg yolk and lotus seed paste. For molds with other gram sizes, the same ratio of wrapper to filling should be 3:7. Take a look at these mooncakes I made! Each one looks like a little lucky bag, and they're incredibly festive! Baked to a golden, shiny finish, with crisp lines, you can tell they were made with great care. Whether you're packing them or letting them air dry, they'll look stunning wherever you put them. They're delicious and savory when you eat them yourself, and they're even more impressive when you give them as a gift. Who wouldn't be delighted? Take a bite, and the salty, fragrant salted egg yolk and pork floss are wrapped in the rich, smooth red bean paste. It's so delicious you'll want to spin around. Give it as a gift during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is delicious and has good meaning. It is definitely the best choice for gift giving to satisfy your cravings! Hurry up and make it once and you will know how delicious it is!

Sichuan and Chongqing salty braised pork

Sichuan and Chongqing's salty shaobai (rice shao) is a melt-in-your-mouth pork belly. The fatty, glutinous pork belly is not greasy at all, while the lean pork belly is perfectly flavorful. The chopped bean sprouts are salty and fragrant, with a crisp and flavorful chew. Mixed with the pork belly, the combination of salty and sweet flavors is so fragrant it's almost intoxicating! In Sichuan and Chongqing, this dish is a common dish at banquets and restaurants. I, a meat-averse person, saw this shaobai (rice shao) at my grandmother's house and tried a piece. My eyes widened, and I devoured the entire plate! Since then, I've become a true meat-eater. Every time I go back to my grandmother's house, the first thing I shout is, "I want shaobai!"
