The buttery crusted ones (Shanghainese)...
All made from scratch (save for the lotus paste) at tonight's baking class. This must be one class which I will be putting into practise in the coming weeks. One lesson tonight's class has highlighted to me, is the exorbitant prices that hotels and restaurants charge for this seasonal pastry. And its high-caloric contents. I mean, I knew a single mooncake contains calories that could possibly sustain me through a half marathon. But it didn't quite sink it till today, while I was kneading the pastry, and FELT how much oil and fats were in it!I actually had fun making the mooncakes, so I'm gonna buy the ingredients and moulds and make them over the next few weekends. Perhaps I should revive the mooncake parties I used to have.
Any orders for my home made mooncakes? The shop sells moulds in all shapes and sizes. My mooncakes will probably come in Hello Kitty moulds.... :)
