Named after the legendary archer Hou Yi, this pastry is inspired by his connection to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Typically, it features a golden, baked crust with a rich, velvety filling, such as lotus seed paste, taro, or custard. Some variations include a chewy mochi center or a decadent egg yolk, symbolizing the sun that Hou Yi once shot down. This pastry is both a tribute to mythology and a luxurious seasonal delight.

Tips

  1. Combine Flavors Carefully: Ensure even distribution of wolfberries and red dates in the lotus paste filling for a consistent flavor in each bite. Adjust the sweetness of the filling by adding or reducing sugar, keeping in mind the natural sweetness of the wolfberries and dates.
  2. Form the Mooncakes: Use a mooncake mold to press the dough-wrapped filling into shape, lightly dusting the mold with flour to prevent sticking.
  3. Chill After Shaping: Once shaped, refrigerate the mooncakes for a few hours to set the texture and enhance the flavor.
  4. Serving Tips: Serve chilled. Snowskin mooncakes are best enjoyed after resting in the fridge for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld.
