Red bean and egg yolk cake

Overview

Another favorite is the egg yolk puff pastry, my favorite among all Chinese dim sum dishes. I made my own red bean paste with less sugar and oil. I soaked the purchased egg yolks in oil and steamed them with white wine. The baked egg yolk cake is delicious, rich and crispy!
