Pineapple filling
Overview
The pineapple filling I made today is for making Hong Kong-style pineapple cakes. I am posting the recipe separately because this filling is very versatile and is great for making mooncakes. It can also be used for cakes, breads and other desserts.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Choose a pineapple, the one I bought weighs 3 pounds, and take 800 grams of pulp
-
Cut half into three strips to make the skin thinner
-
Cut pineapple into cubes and peel. There are basically no thorns when cutting pineapples, so the skin can be cut close to each other and cut thinly
-
Cut the pulp into thin strips
-
Add brown sugar, please note that it is brown sugar, not brown sugar. The candy I bought was imported and a bit expensive. Ordinary brown sugar can also be used, or if you don’t have a lighter color, brown sugar will do
-
Mix the sugar and pineapple shreds evenly and marinate for ten minutes until the sugar melts
-
Put on low heat and simmer, stir-fry constantly when thickened
-
Until there is no more soup inside
-
Add maltose
-
Continue to fry until it forms a ball
