[@PerfectPride]

Never had a snowy moon cake. So pretty! And look so different than what I’m used to eating. The wrapper looks like they would have a similar taste and texture to mochi- which i love!

[@tacocatt6808]

I’ve had both before and in my opinion mochi is chewier and stickier. Maybe because it’s pounded? Well you’re right in that there is some similarity in texture though. Interestingly, another popular type of moon cake is a baked red bean one, and to my knowledge a popular mochi flavour uses the same red bean paste filling. Though red bean moon cakes are even less sticky/chewy from my experience, so the flavour could be more similar but the texture would be more different.

[@JingLiisnotreal]

That’s because of the glutinous rice flour. Now I have far less experience with mochi so take this with a grain of salt, but I’m pretty sure they pound the glutinous rice into flour and then pound the dough over and over before using it. My family tends to make our mooncakes with only the glutinous rice flour (which more or less sticks everywhere until we dust everything with starch) but she’s using other ingredients for her dough because of the reasons she’s giving.

[@AvaActsOut]

I absolutely love mochi. Which flavour is your favorite?

Hey, I know this is off topic but have you heard of Jesus Christ? We are all made by God and we have all sinned against Him constantly. We have fallen short of His just requirements and need forgiveness and help with learning how to be holy as He is holy. For reference, sins include: lust, sex outside marriage, homosexuality, greed, coveting, lying, unrighteous anger etc. Which of us haven’t fallen short? But through Christ’s death on our behalf we have forgiveness, and through His resurrection we have hope of eternal life. Hmu if you want to know more :)

I’ve made this two years in a row now and they’ve come out perfectly each time. The wrapper is so easy using your method. It takes me a really long time to get the custard to the right consistency (90 minutes) and I think it’s because my range’s lowest setting is too low. So I might experiment and up the flame a little higher and see it I can get it down to 30 minutes. Anyway the custard is so delicious too. My daughter devours these so quickly! Thanks Mandy.

I tried this recipe and it's dellllliiiiciiiiooouuuss!! I've prepared it two times already! The first time I accidentally cooked the filling a little bit longer, maybe a minute and it had started to come apart. So in all panic I removed it and kept it in the container, I could observe that the butter was coming out as well and so I thought "Well, it was good trying". However, that more "pasty like" consistency helped me later when I was wrapping them, and they came out perfect! The second time, following the instructions by the second, I did obtain the soft consistency that can be appreciated in the video but, oh boy did I struggle wrapping it! And then that kind of spreaded to the wrap as well and made it soft too, as if it was a bit moist. The moon cakes then were a bit too flabby and lost a bit of the mould pattern. They were delicious however, just like the first time. I loved doing this because it turned out to be as easy as you made it look, and I'll be preparing dozens and dozens of these to eat non stop! Thank you so much!!

[@ameliawilder28]

I had a friend way back in elementary school named Jimmy. He was Vietnamese and brought mooncakes almost everyday with his lunch and one day offered me a piece. I've been hooked on them ever since. I'm German/Canadian and thought I've tasted everything. I live in Canada where people all over the world live here. I live in Toronto which is the most multi cultural city in the globe. You can travel the world without really leaving home. Cheapest thing you can do until you can afford to fly to multiple national countries. I want to fly to Munich, Germany soon to explore more of my heritage. Anyways, I love trying out different foods from different cultures but mooncakes were something I only ever heard of in shows where people travel to eat foreign food. So when my fourth grade friend Jimmy told me about mooncakes and offered to bring a piece for me I was excited. Years and years later I have never stopped craving for them. Jimmy always brought two mooncakes. One he always saved for me. He would offer me all kinds of little Vietnamese treats and foods and talk about the history behind them. That was so many years ago, and even today I can still remember the taste of those solid, yet soft, flaky and slightly crumsy little sweet mooncakes. I have not had a mooncake since leaving elementary school. It's torture to my tastebuds😅 I'm so happy to run into this video as I have been thinking about the mooncakes more often than ever lately.

[@GothicPotato2]

So happy you came out with a recipe for this style of mooncakes! Made your recipe last year and found the results to be utterly amazing. Unfortunately everyone else loved them just as much, so we've had requests from all the friends and family for another batch this year - with several specifically asking for a snowy version. Can't wait to give these a try! Any recommendations for a durian filling? A couple of peeps have asked for that with snowy skins.

[@aprilelke3417]

First time seeing your videos. I enjoy your explanation and clarifying things a lot of other people don't bother to explain.

[@Bel-gk7ie]

I tried making this and I especially love the skin! Super soft & chewy. I keep my mooncakes in the freezer and take them out to thaw slightly when I want to eat them and the skin remains soft & tasty. I switched the custard filling out for lotus filling since a couple of people I made them for can’t eat eggs. But nonetheless, I enjoyed your recipe! Tip: it’s important to make sure you don’t “overcook” the snow skin in the microwave (1min total was all it took for my microwave, so please test yours before your pop yours in). With the microwave oven, you need to be careful with that. I made a mistake for that initially and my first batch of skin came out hard and impossible to mold.

I'm no pastry chef and usually when I try chinese cuisine is because my wife is celiac and lots of chinese recipes are gluten-free. This recipe is very easy and well explained. Also people mentioned that corn starch works. Good news for people in slavic countries is that potato starch (skrobia ziemniaczana, not potato flour! Nie mąka, skrobia!) works very well! Corn starch is not very popular in eastern europe but potato starch is common. Easy fix to make it gluten-free! Just finished making them, both filling and wrapper refrigerated overnight, both wife and daughter gobbled them up. Will be making them again in large quantities for Christmas to have with tea! A thousand times thank you!

Thank you for showing the packages! I get overwhelmed by the packaging at the store, and end up spending all day there! 😂❤ I’m sure the store owners don’t mind since I always leave with 3x more items than I planned!! 😅 my roommate wishes we had two kitchens just to store the ingredients😅😅😅😅

Very impressed with the video. Explaining how and why things are done, adds so much more to the experience. Lessons learned can then be applied to other recipes. Also very pleased with the showing of the packages. This helps a lot with getting the correct ingredients from webshops or finding them locally among many other similar products.

I was able to make egg drop soup once using a combination of both of the approaches you taught . It was very good 😃😊😄

[@KyrosX27]

my first thought was that you followed this recipe and somehow ended up with egg drop soup lol sorry

[@noyes1382]

@@KyrosX27 oh no I thought the same thing 😭😭

[@shelldie8523]

Making the easiest soup ever...once. Sigh.

Hey Mandy, thank you so much for your recipe. I did mooncake recipe from "that channel", my family didn't like it. And this year i tried your recipe. It is big hit. Everyone...EVERYONE in my family said yummy. I don't even have chance to cut the mooncake for serving...they directly bite the whole mooncake. I already make this recipe for 2 times. Really wonderful. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️❤️

[@MoiraMcGill]

This is so clearly explained and beautifully shown ~ Really makes me want some mooncakes!

とても分かり易い説明と丁寧な手順でした。月餅作りに興味があり型は購入したのですが、作り方が分からずにいました。 この動画で早速作ってみます。ありがとうございました♪

I’m going to have to find the little Mooncake press (along with the packages of various necessary ingredients) - it adds the perfect finishing touch to this dessert! Thank you for your recipes, and for including some easier ones, which are not so challenging that I’m afraid to dive in and try them for myself! 😁🙏🏼💕

[@VendErre]

I LOVE HER ACCENT. HER ENGLISH IS SO GOOD.

[@imooonty]

Thank you, I've seen this cake on a Chinese series and now i want to try it so bad , couldn't find it nearby ♥️♥️I will try it for sure

[@designslave38]

You're a good cook and a good teacher. Rare qualities!

[@mckaylad7099]

Thank you for posting this! Moon cakes always look so tasty, artfully molded, and special for autumn! These are impossible to find fresh in the US, I look forward to trying this recipe myself! (Definitely will be buying moon cake molds, the shape and design is really what sells it for me visually )

[@TalisButItWasTaken]

I really like how you explain your reasoning for including a certain ingredient. Most of the time with these things I'll be adding an ingredient and not have a clue what the point is

[@Wwanonymouswarrior]

Hello what is the preservation for these? Do you keep them in the refrigerator? If yes, up to how long can you keep them before eatibg them please?

[@boowompthecat]

im not qualified or experienced but i'd assume these store in the fridge for up to about a week or so at most. Most sweets like this tend to get worse after around 3 days and can go bad within a week. or at least stale. Probably best to make these and eat within a day or two

[@Wwanonymouswarrior]

@@boowompthecat okeee ty! Im not such a cooker lol

[@dogpotatotv1172]

Thank you so much, I'm 14 and I've always wanted to make a moon cake for my family to try this is so easy to understand and I cant wait to try it. Again thank you so much

[@DreamingBlindly]

I love this! It has such a refined yet wondrous method of cooking... and life hacks... and it involves cooking with a microwave where the microwave is actually better! Also, I wonder if you can have a caramel glaze on the top with a nice gentle non sweetened whipped cream center inside the custard to balance out the sweetness? Now I'm hungry XD

[@lancefulmer8153]

I can't wait to try make these. I've had good success with several of your other recipes. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@ShiaMajer]

Wow thank you so much for this tutorial, I am away from my family most of the time and I haven't had a good mooncake for years except for the ones my ex gave to me, this is childhood to me and I will def give it a try, thank you so much!

[@laiyenpolenz9347]

Absolutely adore your instructions, especially the humour!

[@NymphadoraTheTemplar]

thank you for such a tasty and easy to understand recipe! in Korean we celebrate that day as chuseok 추석 and the year I was born was on the full moon day of the 3 day chuseok autumn festival so it's an extra special time for my parents and I (^-^)

[@cocobeebunnied7371]

This is my first time seeing one of your videos and I dont have the ingredients or time to actually do the recipe but I love how this recipe is done. The ingredients measurements , steps and even reasoning for certain steps makes it really easy to understand!

[@1crazydame_]

Unless you have OCD. Lmao!!!!! I absolutely love this video, and how you give instruction and explanations on why. Phenomenal teacher. Subscribing. 😊

[@alinakrapp4657]

😂😂

[@vaniar.1583]

Ok, so. I just make them. I don't eat dairy products so I used coconut milk and coconut oil instead of butter. Also, I spread the custard in a thin layer and put it in the freezer so I didn't have to wait 3 hours. They are DELICIOUS! This recipe is amazing, thank you!

[@4dcab]

I love your channel! Just made this recipe; it was my first time making mooncakes. It was delicious!!! My design didn’t stay pressed into the mooncake for long. How do I make my mochi less springy?

[@tmar8959]

You could up the wheat and/ or rice flour, but reduce glutinous or tapioca starch.

[@emilianofranco7140]

I made them today! They are amazing!! Altho I changed the filling for red bean paste which I love!

[@Pchela-430Vru]

Боже, это превосходно!!!

[@quietone748]

This is a wonderful video. I love your video shots and the clear way you do your instruction. What beautiful cakes. I did have to scroll back to the very beginning a few times, as the way you say "everyone" with that ringing n sound at the end is simply amazing. I am a linguist and that is beautiful. :)
