When making mooncake fillings, choose ingredients with high amylose content, such as chestnuts, red beans, mung beans, etc. These ingredients have a smooth and soft taste and are suitable as the main ingredients for filling. During the production process, starch particles are gelatinized and expanded through the cooking process, and non easily crushed skin residue and other substances are removed through the grinding and sand washing processes to maintain the delicate taste of the filling. Add an appropriate amount of sugar and oil during frying, so that the starch particles in the filling can fully absorb the sugar and oil, achieving the characteristic requirements of a delicate taste.

In addition, when purchasing mooncakes, attention should be paid to checking the integrity of the packaging, selecting simple, safe, and environmentally friendly materials for mooncake packaging, and paying attention to whether the ingredient list, net content, and other indicators are clearly indicated, as well as whether the shelf life, shelf life, and production date are indicated.
