ãIce meatã
250g
of pork fat, 15g
of high liquor, 250g
âï¸ of caster sugar, cut the pork fat into small pieces, add liquor and mix well, then add caster sugar and mix well, marinate for more than 3 days (marinating for more than 1-2 weeks can be, and the taste of ice meat will be better if marinated for a long time).
âï¸ "Ice meat" is obtained after the pork fat is marinated with high liquor and sugar, and the marinated fat meat is snow-white and transparent, so it is called "ice meat". Because of the chemical reaction between high liquor, sugar and fatty meat, the greasy in the fatty meat is removed, making the ice meat in the chicken cake fatty but not greasy, crisp and sweet -

ãChicken crustã
Maltose 100g
, caster sugar, 20g
, peanut oil, 40g
, 2g
water, 10g
, low-gluten flour, 165g
âï¸, maltose, caster sugar, peanut oil, soap water, water Stir well, add to low-gluten flour, and cut +Mix the flour in the same way (don't knead it, try not to make the dough gluten)

Baking steps:
âï¸ The ratio of the skin and the filling I make is 1:3, I like the skin to be thicker, and there are also 2 ways to make
âï¸ the skin and stuffing in the ratio of 1:2 (see picture), one is to divide the filling and skin first, and then roll the skin into thin slices, wrap the filling, and press flat, this method is the same weight for each chicken patty, but it will be a little troublesome -
âï¸ The other is to roll out a whole piece of skin, wrap it in the filling, roll it long, and then cut it into small pieces, tighten the dough of the cut, and then put it on the baking tray and press it flat (I use 100 grams of leather to wrap 300 grams of filling, cut into 16 parts, each piece of chicken cake is about 25g). This method will be faster, but when cutting small pieces, it is completely experienced, and novices tend to divide unevenly
