Cantonese style lotus seed mooncake
Overview
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and everyone is busy making mooncakes. As a northerner, I still like Cantonese-style mooncakes. I bought low-sugar lotus paste filling with my friends. After receiving it, I made this Cantonese-style lotus seed paste and egg yolk mooncake. It tastes good.
