Essential Methods for Cantonese-style Mooncakes

Your parents have taken care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation since you were a child. Now that you have entered society, what can you do on your own? Especially when it comes to eating, can you solve it by yourself? Maybe you can eat out every day, but this behavior not only wastes money, but also destroys your health. So, at a young age, you should learn to cook for yourself. So, now please follow the editor to learn about the necessary methods of making Cantonese-style mooncakes.

1.1 Prepare a stainless steel pot and put the sugar into the pot. Add water and stir slightly with chopsticks to mix the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat. Please do not stir it again after that.

2.2 Squeeze fresh lemon into lemon juice

3.1 If there is sugar water stuck on the wall of the pot, you can take a brush dipped in water and brush it around the wall of the pot. As the water flows down the wall of the pot, it can wash the sugar on the wall into the pot.

4.2 After the sugar water boils, pour in the lemon juice. After it boils again, turn to low heat and simmer slowly (from this point until the syrup is finished cooking, remember not to stir the syrup again).

5. Keep simmering over the lowest heat. The longer it cooks, the darker the color of the syrup will be. We can see that the color of the syrup is slowly getting darker.

6. Cook for about 40 minutes to 1 hour. When the color of the syrup is very close to the color of honey and its viscosity is thinner than honey, the syrup is ready.

7. After the syrup has cooled, find a sealed jar, put the syrup in it, and leave it for 1 day before use.
