About My Profile Photo
When I was invited to add a profile photo, I chose to upload this one. It was taken at the last Chinese Mid-autumn festival, September 8, 2014, and what appears in it is one of the mooncakes I made for our family. These cakes had crisp skin and were stuffed with a seasoned mixture of minced beef, chopped onions, a preserved Sichuan vegetable named “Fulin Zhacai”, and so on. When taken out of the baking oven, they smelt very delicious. I ate four hot mooncakes along with a cup of strong oolong tea. Even my sister, who was on a weight-reduction diet, couldn't stop herself from eating three.
Mooncakes are a necessary food for the Mid-autumn festival in China, and some people jokingly call that day the "Mooncake festival". There are a great variety of mooncakes available in the supermarkets or online shops; unfortunately, most of them taste too sweet or too greasy. But if you make them yourselves, you can improve the recipe according to your preference, and you don't need to worry about eating too much sugar, fat or preservative.
