Walnut and jujube paste filling|All-purpose moon cake filling

Cooking Instructions

1. After washing the jujubes, remove the pit, I cut it with scissors, I think this method is the fastest and most suitable for me, you can follow your own habits to the pit.

   

2. Add about twice as much water to the pot as the red dates, and don't cover the red dates.

   

3. Boil the dates in a pot over medium-high heat.

   

4. Boil the dates until tender

   

5. The water was just boiling dry, and I probably boiled it for more than 30 minutes.

   

6. Put the boiled red dates into the food processor or wall breaker, you can add a little water, the amount of water should not be too much, as long as it can be moved, the time of frying after adding more water will be longer.

   

7. Turn on the food processor or wall breaker and whip it, and if the machine is a food processor, use a jogging method.

   

8. Beaten red date puree

   

9. It's also nice to have a food processor

   

10. A little skin can be sifted with a coarser sieve.

    

11. The sifted jujube paste is smooth and delicate

    

12. Pour the jujube paste into a non-stick pan, be sure to use a non-stick pan! I usually use the kitchen machine to fry the fillings, which completely frees my hands. Try to fry it in a non-stick pan today, this pan is really super easy to use~

    

13. Add half of the peanut oil when it is a little thick, then continue to heat over low heat, stirring while stirring, and then pour in the other half of the peanut oil after the peanut oil is completely absorbed

    

14. If it is a little thicker, add the maltose syrup, and the filling will be more sticky after adding the maltose syrup. Continue to simmer and stir while stir-frying.

    

15. This process requires a little patience, and gradually the jujube paste filling becomes very thick, if it is made of steamed buns or cakes, it will be fine like this, and it will be slightly harder after cooling.

    

16. If you make moon cakes or jujube paste, you should continue to fry over low heat until it is a little harder and does not stick to the spatula at all.

    

17. Add the roasted chopped walnuts.

    

18. After adding walnuts, you can turn off the heat, mix all evenly, the bottom will not stick at all, and the pot will be very clean when rinsed with water.

    

19. The stir-fried walnut and date paste filling can be spread flat in a baking tray and let it cool.

    

20. After cooling, it will harden a little bit, super appetizing, and walnuts are added to neutralize the sweetness.

    

21. Delicate and shiny

    

22. According to the weight you need, you can make mooncakes or jujube pastry
