I don't know how many times I've watched this and until now I haven't make any. 🤣🤣🤣

[@chuastella1213]

Can we use hand to knead it ? We need to knead until elasticity ?

[@PureHangout]

I just tried and reacted to a store bought version of this. I didn’t realize the yolk was supposed to be salty. That part surprised me. Great video! It’s cool to see how they’re made.

[@isabeladevia7687]

Hi,, i tried this recipe and i loved it!
I read your blog it can frozen, how to do after frozen cooked mooncake pastry ?
After thaw can i oven again so the pastry still crispy ?
Thank you

[@omnivorescookbook]

I would just thaw them in the fridge. When I plan to eat them, I would lightly toast them in the oven (you can also use a microwave, but only for a few seconds) so it warms up slightly. The pastry won't be very crispy but still taste good. You can always bake it a bit longer to let the top to crisp up again.
