Fresh meat mooncakes

Overview

The moon in the night sky is getting rounder and rounder, and the charm of Mid-Autumn Festival is getting stronger and stronger. During every festive season, we miss our loved ones even more. In the hearts of the Chinese people, the Mid-Autumn Festival is equivalent to the Spring Festival, symbolizing reunion. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival has another great meaning for me. This is my first Mid-Autumn Festival since I posted the recipe, and I learned to make mooncakes for the first time. . . The customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival vary from place to place, but mooncakes are common without exception. It is also a pleasure to get together with family and friends, admire the moon and taste moon cakes. . . Our parents had prepared lard for us a few months ago; there was a lot of flour left when making bread; and the minced meat was just mixed; it seemed that "Fresh Meat Mooncakes" were inevitable. ~(≧▽≦)/~La la la. . . .
