Chapter 118: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival
The pressed moon cakes can be baked, until they are set, taken out and brushed with a layer of egg yolk liquid, and then re-baked.
Bake until the surface of the mooncake is golden brown and ready to bake.
Freshly baked mooncakes are hard and dry, in principle, they need to be stored for a period of time, waiting for the oil to come out, that is, to let the filling and the fat when mixing the noodles soak out, so that the mooncakes will be fragrant and soft.
Because it will be listed tomorrow, Qin Fei will host the moon cakes to the system to speed up the process.
It took an hour to bake a sufficient amount of five-kernel mooncakes, and then there were three flavors of lotus paste, egg yolk, and cloud leg that were not made.
The production of moon cakes is much the same, and this article will no longer have the number of words...... It's weird.
The following focuses on the production of cloud leg mooncakes.
This should be the first initiative of the people of Yunnan Province in China, and the bacon with honey is wrapped in moon cakes, which has a salty and sweet taste, which is really irresistible.
Qin Fei took out the previously pickled cloud leg, and the system has been storing it with the most perfect temperature and humidity, making this cloud leg particularly perfect.
Its shape resembles a lute, with thin skin and thick flesh, and moderate fat and thinness. A knife is cut in the middle, the section is regular, the aroma is strong, and the color is bright.
The lean meat is bright red or rose, the fat is milky white, and the bones are slightly peach, as if they were still fresh pork legs.
It is said that the cloud leg of enough years can be eaten raw, Qin Fei cut a thin slice and put it in his mouth to taste.
It's a bit like eating dried meat, it's chewy, and it's just salty.
But Qin Fei is not used to eating raw, it is enough to taste one piece, and continue to make moon cakes.
Wash and peel the cloud legs, slice them, put them on a plate and put them in the steamer, steam them slightly, then take them out and cut them into cubes, add honey and stir, this is the filling required for the cloud leg mooncakes.
Immediately wrap the moon cakes, print the cat's paws, bake and store.
Qin Fei was making mooncakes all night tonight, and the pastry merchants in Donghai City didn't sleep.
Xie Ji Pastry Shop, a merchant that was established in the past ten years, defeated other time-honored brands and became the pastry leader in Donghai City.
Why Xie Ji is so good is mainly because the three founders of Xie Ji have their own skills.
Xie Ji's boss, no one knows the specific name, only the surname Xie, known as Boss Xie, is a good businessman, he will Xie Ji pastry operation packaging, forced into a luxury, key magnates still buy it, competing to buy.
Zhang Yuge and Huang Haimian are the right-hand men of Boss Xie, the former is proficient in arithmetic, ruthless with an iron face, and is a good bookkeeper;
At this moment, Xie Ji convened the city's pastry shops to hold the Mid-Autumn Festival, and no one dared to be absent.
The content of the meeting was similar to that of previous years, mainly about the sales of mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"When the market opens tomorrow morning, the price of moon cakes will rise tenfold!" At the meeting, Boss Xie said amazingly.
Other merchants secretly smacked their tongues: "Will anyone buy this?"
"Don't buy it, what do they give as gifts!" Boss Xie smiled coldly.
Nowadays, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it has become a common practice to send moon cakes between relatives and friends, especially between superiors and subordinates.
The more expensive the mooncakes are sold, the more face-saving those sand sculptures feel.
The merchants nodded one after another, Xie Ji ate meat, they could also be full after drinking soup, and gave a thumbs up: "Follow Boss Xie, everyone will get rich together, and no one is allowed to hold back!"
In the end, the merchants formed a plan for mutual supervision, and they went away.
......
Qin Fei fell asleep in the early hours of the morning in order to make moon cakes last night, and waited until the sky was bright before he got up slowly.
The system prompted that the mooncake was ripe, Qin Fei was a little energetic, and took a five-kernel mooncake to look at.
After the oil, the moon cake is a little moist and exudes a heavy aroma, especially the meaty cat's paw prints, which I want to bite into when I look at it.
Put the mooncake to your mouth and bite it gently, the soft dough is sandwiched with hard nuts, sweet and not greasy, crispy and material.
Qin Fei ate a cake of each flavor with milk, and it was right to serve it as breakfast.
Today, the cruise ship will not go to Whale Island, dock early outside the moon-watching beach, and wait until the evening for people to board the boat to enjoy the moon.
In order to complete the task as soon as possible, Qin Fei moved a small table and went to the market to set up a stall to sell moon cakes.
He also inquired about the market, the cheapest moon cakes on the market today cost ten cents a piece, and it is said that Xie Ji moon cakes are the most expensive, and they cost five taels of silver per box.
Is it made of gold?
Qin Fei pondered that his moon cakes were so delicious and so cute, why did they have to sell them...... It's good to pay for one.
Anyway, the cost is not high, and Qin Fei doesn't mean how much money he can make, he just wants to sell it out early and complete the task to enjoy the moon.
was setting up the stall, and a man was carrying a large box and a small box, as if he was in a hurry to give gifts, but the child who followed him suddenly fell to the ground, rolling around and wanting to eat moon cakes.
The man said angrily: "Eat your ball, moon cakes are so expensive, I have to give them away, at most I will buy you a bun." ”
Not only are the children angry and ignorant, but they are also angry that the moon cakes are really expensive, and their colleagues are sending them to their superiors, and if they don't send them, they will be too different.
I can't help myself.
But how can a child listen to it, and he is so sad that he yells and cries.
The man was feeling helpless, and suddenly saw Qin Fei's moon cake stall, which was estimated to be cheaper for moon cakes in this small stall, so he was ready to buy one.
"Boss, how much does a mooncake cost?" the man stepped forward and asked.
"Three texts and one. Qin Fei said.
"What? How much?" the man felt that he had misheard, how could there be such a cheap mooncake today.
"Three texts and one. Qin Fei repeated.
The man heard it clearly, although he thought it was cheap, but his first reaction was that it was cheap and not good, and it must not be delicious.
I looked at my little boy rolling on the ground again, what does he care, what do perfunctory children want to do so high-class: "Bring me one." ”
"What kind of flavor do guests want?" Qin Fei was about to introduce.
The man was a little impatient: "Just whatever, hurry up and I'm in a hurry." ”
Qin Fei wrapped a five-kernel one in paper.
The man handed the moon cake to his child: "Little rabbit, hurry up and eat, let's go on the road after eating, there are several more!"
The child took the moon cakes, looked at the exquisite box his father carried, and felt that it must not be as delicious as those, but he knew that if he made any more trouble, he would probably be beaten, and he would be done.
The child opened the paper bag, this moon cake is beautiful, there is a cat's paw on it, the child immediately burst into tears and laughed.
But when he took a bite, the child suddenly cried again.
The man was surprised: "What's the matter?"
The child wiped his tears, and his voice was milky: "Daddy, the moon cakes are delicious, I didn't cry in vain." ”
The man was amused by the child, and he was not angry: "If it's delicious, eat it quickly, and we'll hurry after eating." ”
The child nodded, ate most of the mooncakes, and then handed the remaining small bite to the man: "Daddy eats it too." ”
The man was stunned and touched the child's brain: "Good girl, Daddy doesn't eat it." ”
The child looked very stubborn: "Daddy works weekdays, so he must eat." ”
The man suddenly felt a sour nose, so he took the small piece of moon cake: "Thank you." ”
The five-kernel mooncake is in the mouth, the dough is sweet and soft, the nuts are crispy, and the man looks stunned, this is also too delicious, right?
Besides, with such a delicious thing, this little guy can actually save a bite for himself?
Look at his son's innocent face again, the man has tears in his eyes, no matter how hard and tired he works on weekdays, it is worth it.
When the man was moved, the child fell to the ground and rolled on the ground: "Daddy robbed me of moon cakes to eat, compensate me for a hundred, otherwise I will sue grandpa." ”
