Fruit Tart (the second)

Hey Hey Hey...Today we went over to Dian's bbq birthday, I got sick b/c of the wind - but it was cool ey! but Evi fell over.. and hurt her back bone.. *poor girl* I hope she gets better sooon... Well when she fell, she kinda cried a little bit - and I kind of felt bad that she fell and that I couldn't do anything. Like, I'm not the type of person that can show so much emotion towards other people in that way. You know like some people can be so openly showing their sympathy in public to someone who is physically or emotionally hurt - but I'm not capable of doing that. Is there something wrong with me? o.O?

Anyway, yesterday Gilburt's mum came over.. so today I made her my famous fruit cake. Since I promised in my previous entry that I would give a better picture once the strawberry season is here.. well.. strawberry season is here!! V^^V yayyy!!! I got this cooking magazine which i lurve and this mooncake thing and lapis legit spices.. yayy! i can make lapis legit! ^^ But i feel like this is just temporary happiness..since I havent started writing my thesis yet!!!! OMG! (>.<)"..... Hmm gonna be a long week this week! but I'll manage! - Have a good week y'all!! Mwah

MoonCake Galore - Part 2

mature mooncake after 3 days "oiling"
minutes after leaving the oven

This time, I made traditional mooncakes which involved using the brown sugar pastry and egg washes.. Hm.. I think it's a pretty good recipe, so for you ladies out there wanting to make your own mooncakes.. please refer to my previous entry (September) to update on how to manage your wooden mooncake moulds. Anyway.. I really enjoyed making it.. ^^! so fUN!! ^^

To make 5 large mooncakes, you will need..

Syrup:
45g peanut oil (equivalent to 50 mL)
110g golden syrum (for NZ: use Chelsea)
1 teaspoon of lye water (air abu)

  • Stir under low heat until the golden syrup becomes runny (make sure not to boil!) and set aside to cool until WARM.
Pastry:
Cooled Syrup
150 g standard flour
1 tblspn cornflour
a pinch of salt
  • Mix all in one using a mixer or your spatula and make sure to knead thoroughly. Set aside for 1 hour under normal temperature
  • NOTE: It is important that you follow these steps, especially otherwise, the pastry will become brittle and you wouldnt be able to use it for making your pastry. If everything is done in the right proportion, you'll have a soft pastry dough.
Filling:
Lotus, Red Bean, Mung Bean Paste - whatever you like.
  • Divide everything into portions: for a large mooncake, Pastry = 80 g, Filling 100g (but you can have more filling and less pastry if you like). Roll into a ball with smooth surface
  • Take the Pastry, then flatten a little bit with your hand - then ball of filling and stick it into the middle of the pastry and in cupping motion - wrap the pastry around the filling
  • Then place into your moulds
  • Bang mould on each direction (: east, west, south, north) equally to dislodge the mooncake
  • Bake for 10 minutes in 175C
  • Take out of oven, let stand for 5 minutes
  • BRUSH sparingly WITH: (1 eggyolk, 2 tblspoon of water and 1 tspn oil = whisked together).
  • Let stand for 10 minutes
  • Bake again for 10-15 minutes until brown
  • Take it out of the oven and cool
  • DON'T EAT STRAIGHT AWAY: Leave it for 3 days for "oiling" before serving: this will give a nice shine to the cake.

Sedih deh.. pas graduation.. cuma pink gitu warnanya.. pas gua kelar graduation - udah.. bernanah.. HUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA sedih banget :( :( :( i feel so hopeless.. like I cant do anything to fix it. pas keluar - gua langsung nangis2 gak jelas gitu, terus dianterin gilburt ke dokter, di dokternya.. gua nangis lagi...

Mojito: Bacardi

Hmmm ... magnifico!
Woot.. wazzupp y'all!! Since.. I'm a little bit in some sort of cocktail frenzy... here's another recipe for an awesome drink.
  • 6 - 8 cl white rum (I used Bacardi)
  • juice of 1 lime
  • soda water
  • mint
  • 2 - 3 teaspoons of (brown) sugar

Put sugar on the bottom of the glass and muddle with mint leaves. Add lime juice and crushed ice. Stir. Add crushed ice to fill about half of the glass. Add rum. Stir some more. Add used lime hull for garnish. Add more ice and top with soda water.

Not much soda is needed, crushed ice will add water while it melts. Garnish with a mint sprig and serve with two straws.
