要吃要吃好   吃喝玩乐
Poignant craftmanship
An exquisite masterpiece in the world of chinese pastries by Hongkong chefs. The alkaline water in dough transforms the fusion of high quality flour and syrup to the next level of aromatic sensation. The delicate dough demands a pair of hands that sychronises with a calm and focus mind in the making. The portion of filling to dough is supposingly to be 80% to 20% , manageable through swift strokes of the chinese pastry chef's skill. At this ratio the rolled dough is thinned so fine that a slight heavier breath could break it. I prefer a 70/30 proportion so my sweet tooth could sink into more dough to enjoy the flavourful smooth softness. White lotus paste is often the prefer choice. Throw in some roasted melon seeds, pumpkin seeds or the divinely olive seeds ( price 4x). To enjoy a richer taste, a piece of salted egg yolk is wrapped with the lotus paste . Be sure you get at least a slice of it under the fat round Moon.
