<h2>Royalties</h2>
Shelled chestnut 500g

Honey 40g
<h2>Practice steps</h2>
1: Wash 500g chestnuts with shells, pour in an appropriate amount of water, completely submerge the chestnuts, and cook for about 20 minutes on medium heat.
2: After the chestnuts have cooled, use a knife to split each chestnut in two, use a spoon to take out the chestnut meat and put it into the blender to beat into powder.
3. Without a blender, put the chestnut meat directly into a plastic bag or a dense bag, and roll it up with a rolling pin.
4, whether it is with a blender, or with a rolling pin to roll out the chestnut kernels, in fact, there are small particles, not delicate enough, then we use a spoon and a strainer to filter the chestnut kernels.
5. The filtered chestnut kernel powder has about 350g of appearance, which is very delicate.
6: Put a handful of Northeast Korean Pine Nuts in the oven and bake them at 160 ° C for three or five minutes, and bake until slightly browned.
7: Take 20 or 30 grams of roasted pine nuts, add the chestnuts to the minced chestnuts, and squeeze in 40g of honey. (I have pine nuts here to grab casually, I baked more pine nuts at a time, I estimate that I grabbed twenty or thirty grams of it, this is casual)
8. Bring disposable gloves to grasp these three things evenly.
9, with 50g mooncake mold, press out one chestnut cake after another, the size of this time is about 25g or so.
<h2>Tips</h2>
1. There will definitely be some small particles left in the end, which cannot be filtered, so these small particles need to be discarded. 2. When roasting pine nuts, I must watch, I am often overconfident, when baking to do something else, when you come back, you will find that the roasted pine nuts are all paste, sometimes ten seconds will make a pot of pine nuts all paste.
