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!

lye bread

Its appearance is truly remarkable! The brown-red crust is shiny and glossy, and the black sesame filling appears at the cut, resembling a flower. The crust is slightly chewy on the outside, yet soft and fluffy on the inside, and the sesame filling is fragrant and rich. It's like a homemade pastry made by our elders—simple yet flavorful, a true home-cooked delicacy. The sweetness of life is all in this bread.

Super Soft Cheese Sausage Buns (Cream Version)

I love making high-hydration doughs, especially for bread—they turn out as soft as little lambs. (I used 625g of flour to make 14 buns.) The aroma while baking is impossible to hide; neighbors often come knocking to ask when the bread will be ready. (Next time, I’ll try a butter version.) I prefer savory bread, so I use less sugar and a bit more salt.

Black sesame nut energy bread (crispy on the outside and soft on the inside)

This European bread is a great choice for a healthy diet. Based on whole grains and black sesame powder, it's rich in dietary fiber, promoting intestinal motility and aiding digestion. Paired with walnuts and raisins, the walnuts provide unsaturated fatty acids, protein, and various trace elements, while the raisins contain natural sugars and antioxidants, making it a nutritious and sugar-free option. Olive oil can be used instead of butter to reduce saturated fat intake. Unprocessed, it retains the original nutrients of the ingredients, providing a strong sense of satiety and helping to control calorie intake. Whether enjoyed as breakfast or a snack, it provides sustained energy while satisfying both taste buds and health needs, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a balanced, low-fat diet.

Savory pork floss salad soft buns

pork floss, chives, and cheese. Just looking at them reveals how delicious they'll taste. When you're in a hurry in the morning, grabbing one is super convenient. The bread is soft, and with one bite, the salty flavor of the pork floss, the crispy chives, and the creamy cheese all explode in your mouth. The more you chew, the more delicious it becomes. It's truly fragrant, and there's no need to bother with the right combination. Finish one and keep another in your pocket for the day—a perfect breakfast and afternoon tea for a working person, right? 😀

Coconut Milk Cloud Buns

Break one open, and the soft, stringy texture stretches out. The coconut milk hidden in the cracks oozes out, fragrant and moist, the aroma of coconut mixed with the aroma of milk piercing my nose. A bite reveals the bread is soft as cotton, the sweetness of coconut milk wrapped around the mellow aroma of wheat, a perfect sweetness that becomes more and more addictive with every chew. I've been trying to manage my weight lately, but with the smell and feel of this softness, how could I resist? So, I grabbed one, then another (with a silly grin), watching my family happily scramble for it. Any worries about losing weight faded away with the coconut aroma—after all, the carb-filled treats that the whole family can gather around to grab aren't always available. Losing weight? I'll worry about it after I finish this plate!

Jade Butterfly Cream

The core taste of "jade butterfly condensed fat" is smooth and delicate, melting in the mouth. 1. The intuitive association of "condensed fat": as soft and tender as solidified animal fat (such as lard and mutton fat), dense and non-granular, it can be melted by a light touch of the tongue, similar to the soft texture of tender tofu or pudding, but more chewy and slightly glutinous like rice products. 2. Combined with the characteristics of rice tofu: retain the fragrance of rice itself, chewing it has the smoothness of rice paste, and because of the moderate thickness of the "butterfly" shape, it brings a light and non-greasy taste, as if holding a piece of "melting" jade fat, sweet and salty tastes can be adapted to this texture description.

Cocoa (Chocolate) Cake Without Defoaming

No one can resist the temptation of chocolate cake, especially this Valrhona chocolate cake, which is irresistible. However, cocoa cake is a "baking nightmare" for many people - the two hurdles of fat and consistency alone are enough to make countless people shy away from this kind of cake that is easily "defeated". The cocoa butter it contains is like a "time bomb", which will disintegrate the bubbles in the meringue if you are not careful; and after the cocoa powder absorbs enough water, the batter becomes thick and sticky. If you use a little force when stirring, the meringue that has been whipped with great difficulty may lose its bubbles and collapse. If you want to bake a fluffy cocoa cake that does not shrink, the following method can make it easy for you to control it~
