How to make KFC's super tender egg tarts

Learning to cook some common home-cooked dishes and cooking at home can bring warmth to your family. Even if we are busy, we'd better cook at home often. We can cook some simpler dishes. The method of making the super tender egg tarts that beat KFC is relatively simple. Even if you are not a good cook, you don't have to worry about not being able to learn it.

1. Sift the high-gluten flour and low-gluten flour into a bowl.

2. Add 2.5 grams of salt and 5 grams of fine sugar.

3. Add 40 grams of softened butter and rub the flour and butter with your hands.

4. Pour in water. The amount of water is not absolute. Add water, stir and observe.

5. I added about 115 grams.

6. Use your hands to quickly knead it into dough, but no need to over-knead.

7. Make a cross cut on the surface of the dough, wrap it in a plastic bag and refrigerate for more than 1 hour.

8. Put 80 grams of butter into a plastic bag, roll it into a square with a rolling pin, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

9. Keep the butter as flat as possible in the refrigerator so that it will be flat when you take it out.

10. (I used two brands of butter, so the color is a little gradient)

11. Sprinkle a layer of high-gluten flour on the chopping board to prevent sticking. Roll the relaxed dough into a square twice the size of the butter slice, and then wrap the butter slice.

12. Wrap it as shown below.

13. Use a rolling pin to gently roll the dough into a long shape. Sprinkle flour on the surface to prevent sticking, and apply even force when rolling.

14. If a small part of the skin is broken during the rolling process, you can use high-grade powder to fill it up.

15. The recommended operating temperature is around 18 degrees. Above 22 degrees, the butter will easily become soft and leak. Once the butter becomes soft, it needs to be refrigerated immediately.

16. (Do it in an air-conditioned room)

17. After rolling it, start folding it.

18. First, fold the front end of the dough 1/3 to the middle

19. Fold up the lower 1/3

20. Put the folded dough into a plastic bag and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

21. Take out the refrigerated dough, turn it 90 degrees, place it on a chopping board sprinkled with high flour, and repeat the folding method in 9.

22. After the second folding is completed, wrap it in a fresh-keeping bag and refrigerate for more than 15 minutes.

23. After refrigeration, take out the dough, repeat step 9, fold it for the third time, and then refrigerate.

24. Take out the refrigerated dough, and after it has relaxed, start making the egg tart crust.

25. Roll the dough into a sheet with a thickness of about 0.3cm.

26. Then roll up the dough.

27. Use a rubber scraper to cut into appropriate size.

28. Use your hands to press the small dough into a thin round shape.

29. Put the egg tart base in and press the edges with your fingers.

30. Sprinkle a little flour on the surface of the egg tart crust, fold it up and freeze it in the refrigerator. Take it out and thaw it when you need it.

31. Now let’s start making the egg tart liquid!

32. Put 50 ml of pure milk and 100 ml of light cream in a bowl, pour in 18 grams of white sugar, and stir until the sugar melts.

33. You can take a sitz bath in a basin of hot water to speed up the melting of white sugar.

34. When the solution temperature drops below body temperature, break the egg yolk.

35. Pour it in and the egg tart liquid is ready!

36. It’s that simple!

37. Pour the egg tart liquid into the tart crust, filling it until it is 70% to 80% full.

38. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees, middle layer, and bake for about 18-20 minutes.

39. Observe the color of the egg tarts. If they are browned, they are almost done.

40. While baking the egg tarts, make a pot of fruit tea. Both children and adults can drink it, and it is much healthier than those drinks!

41. Cut various fresh fruits into pieces.

42. Put it in the flower teapot.

43. Add a slice of lemon.

44. Add appropriate amount of hot water.

45. Add some honey.

46. ​​It’s done, now it’s time to have a wonderful afternoon tea.
