After weeks in hibernation I realize that it’s time that I get up from my slumber and update my blog. Sorry that I was a little lazy lately and have not been visiting your blog regularly. For today’s post, I’m using the usual snowskin recipe but I’m using it with a fish mould that I bought quite some time ago. This multicoloured fish is going to be a great giveaway gift for your friends and loved ones for the coming Mooncake Festivial.
Ingredients: (makes about 15)
- 50g Kao fen (糕粉-cooked glutinous rice flour)
- 230g Snowskin flour ( KCT Pinpe Premix Powder )
- 50g Icing sugar (sifted)
- 46g Crisco/shortening
- 300g Pandan Water (boil 500g water with 4 pandan leaves, leave to cool) and measure
- 300g water
- some extra kao fen for dusting
- Valrhona chocolate pearls as fish eyes
- Method:
- Combine kao fen and snowskin flour (KWT Pinpe Premix Powder) in a big bowl and set aside.
- In a pot, add 300g pandan water with icing sugar and shortening together and bring them to boil until shortening melted, stir with a hand whisk.
- Pour the hot liquid mixture to the flour and use spatula to stir mixture to soft dough and leave dough to cool (you’ll find the dough is quite oily at this time) then knead dough again to smooth, add more kao fen to it if the dough is still too sticky.
- Divide dough into 4 equal portions with drop of your desired colour and knead well.
- Roll colour doughs to long shape and gently press them together and roll to longer length.
- Measure dough to 25g and wrap in 20g durian lotus paste or any other filling you prefer.
- Roll it into a ball and dust with some kao fen (kao fen 糕粉) and press firmly into fish mould ~ unmould, add chocolate pearl as fish eye and store in an airtight container.
- Chill snowskin mooncakes before consuming.

- 将面团分成4份。加入少许你所喜欢的颜色，搓匀。
- 将不同颜色的面团搓成长条，轻轻把面条压在一起，再把面团搓长一点。用刀子切出小面团，包入馅料，搓圆
