On the second day, Qin Huai woke up bright and early, at 3:30 AM, and set off for Yunzhong Restaurant under the starry sky to make sugar cake.
The video tutorial of sugar cake was something Qin Huai quickly glanced at before bed the night before, finding nothing worth learning.
The parts where they skimped were what needed attention. As the heir of a century-old sugar cake shop, Zhang Yi's skills somewhat betrayed their family's brand, but his level of skimping was commendable.
There is a record of sugar cake in the Ming Dynasty's "Southern State Chronicles": "Tea stall sells snow rings, glutinous flour wraps thrice." From this record, it's clear how important glutinous rice flour is to sugar cake. Normally, sugar cake is made by mixing wheat starch with glutinous rice flour, adding sugar and lard, boiling water to scald the dough into rings, frying them to set shape and then coating them in sugar.
The difficulty isn't very high.
