Lotus egg yolk and Wurencheng are the most popular moon cakes. Why are many people still spitting Wurencheng moon cakes?

Recently, it has been found that Lotus Seed Yellow and Wurencheng are the most popular moon cakes, but why many people spit Wurencheng moon cakes is actually mainly due to personal taste differences. Personally, I don't like eating Wuren City very much. A few years ago, some people even shouted "Wuren City gets out of the mooncake world", which is actually mainly related to the current ingredients in Wuren City.

Compared with other moon cakes, the stuffing of Wuren moon cake is very special. There is no moon cake stuffing like it, which is made of at least five ingredients mixed together. The problem lies in these miscellaneous fillers. Red and green shredded pork is made from common foods such as carrots, orange peels, pawpaw and radish. After washing, it is cut into diced, shredded and strips, dyed with red or green food pigments, pickled with sugar and dried. The early green and red silk tasted good, but now it is like chewing hay, tasteless and disgusting. In fact, the green and red silk made of radish, melon peel and other things is not delicious, but the taste is modulated. The main function of green silk and red silk in moon cakes is to mix colors and make the cake look more beautiful. Now not only does it have no color matching effect, but it also reduces the taste of moon cakes.

Five-kernel moon cakes taste bad, because the rock sugar in them is hard and plentiful, just like chewing bones. According to an old chef who opened a pastry shop for a long time, the rock sugar in moon cakes should not be too hard, and crisp rock sugar is the best. But now moon cake manufacturers don't care about these. In order to reduce costs and improve profits, all kinds of sugar are used cheaply.

Wuren moon cake is the most traditional moon cake. What kind of lotus seed yolk is invented by later generations. But lotus paste stuffing can be made of potatoes and essence; Bean paste can be made from coffee grounds and essence; All kinds of fruit fillings can be made of melon, pumpkin and essence. Only Wuren is the most authentic. I hope the merchants can make up the quality. Maybe five kernels can still be delicious.
