Red bean cake

Overview

Red bean cakes, which can also be said to be Soviet-style red bean paste mooncakes, feel better and more reliable than those bought in supermarkets. When I was a kid, I ate Cantonese-style bean paste mooncakes, but my mother often cooked red beans for cooking, which gave them a pinkish texture. At that time, we didn’t really like red beans, and our favorite was to use them to make rice dumplings. I came here to learn from my mother-in-law how to stir-fry red bean paste, which is used to make fillings and make sticky dough. It is a sticky and sweet snack that is loved by locals. Now that I have learned how to make shortbread, how can I miss this crispy and sweet bean paste cake? Ingredients for water-oil skin: 100g flour, 30g lard, 50g warm water, 5g powdered sugar, 5g salt. Ingredients for puff pastry: 100g flour, 50g lard
