Wenzhou wheat cake
Wenzhou people all know wheat cake, Wenzhou people all love to eat wheat cake. The smell of home! With Wenzhou people strong homesickness!

There are two kinds of Wenzhou wheat cake dough and method:
1. Eggs, oil, water (dig a hole in the middle of the flour, beat in the eggs, add the oil, stir with chopsticks, add water, and mix into dough)
2. Beer (beer replaces water and dough)
Whether it's eggs, oil or beer, it's all used to soften the wheat cakes.

There are several fillings for Wenzhou wheat cakes, and I only count 3 here:
1. Pickled flavor: pickles + fat meat
2. Dried vegetable flavor: Dried plum vegetables or dried mustard + fat (Dried plum vegetables taste better than dried mustard.)
3. Sweet: White sugar (Brush oil on the dough and put white sugar. It is usually made for children!)

  • Wenzhou wheat cake Make Tips

    1. The step of frying dried plums and vegetables can be omitted. Stir-fry dried plums and vegetables to make the dried vegetables more fragrant. 2. Take a little of the mixed stuffing and put it in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, taste the taste, and adjust the salty flavor of the stuffing. 3. Flip frequently when frying to avoid charred. 4. If there is a little charred, gently scrape off the charred area with a knife. 5. Roll it into a round cake and wrap the stuffing is the easiest way. The old method is to knead the dough into an inverted UF shape, pinch the empty dough in the middle, add the filling, and close the dough. It is easy for beginners to wrap it into a thick circle of dough with few fillings.
