Introduction to Master Guo Mooncakes

"Master Guo Mooncakes" have long been renowned in Jilong Town, Huidong County. On the eve of the Mid Autumn Festival, there would be a scene of queuing up in front of Mr. Guo's bakery to buy mooncakes, with the longest one having to wait for the entire day. Mr. Guo's mooncakes do not look beautiful or elegant, and the crust is relatively hard. But its Wuren char siu mooncakes are known for their purity, aroma, and crispness. They have been famous in Huizhou since the 1990s and are now exported to Southeast Asia

Master Guo's mooncakes have a rich variety of ingredients, including walnut kernels, almonds, melon seeds, etc., which are purchased from Yunnan. The good ingredients make the mooncakes have a unique taste and a fragrant and mellow texture. Its production has been using the traditional techniques of the ancestors, including 10 processes such as orange peel processing and Grilled pork production, and 18 processes such as cake crust pressing and crisping. The traditional 10 step process, exquisite 18 production techniques, and strict selection of 38 raw materials continue in the hundred year history of Master Guo's Char siu Emperor. In these 10 processes, whether it is the processing of tangerine peel, the production of malt, winter paste, Grilled pork, or the selection of peanut oil, "Master Guo Moon Cake" requires fresh and pure high-quality raw materials

The production of Grilled pork is the most important process in Master Guo's barbecued emperor moon cake, and he pays particular attention to the selection of materials. He must choose mountain walking pigs that have long eaten natural feed, and their feeding period must be more than 18 months. In addition, high-quality domestic pigs with long legs and thick body should be selected. Only high-quality pork meeting the above conditions can produce crispy, tender and smooth Grilled pork. All chemical synthetic spices must be eliminated. Its purpose is to retain the most original and natural flavor of Grilled pork, because chemical spices will destroy the natural aroma of meat and produce pungent odor after a long time

Master Guo's char siu huang mooncakes require garlic oil, which has a high requirement for oil. Hydrogenated oil, salad oil, mixed oil, etc. cannot be used because these oils will carbonize and produce a strong burnt flavor when heated to 150 ℃, making it impossible to make garlic oil. The production process is also very complicated, but "Master Guo Mooncake" is not at all troublesome. It uses pure and authentic peanut oil, heats it to 203 ℃, and pours the chopped dried garlic into a frying pan. It is quickly fried, filtered, and taken out of the pan to become garlic oil
