Tai Yang Bing~

i was going through Florence's blog archives last evening when i found her recipe for Tai Yang Bing (Taiwanese Sun Pastry). i had most of the ingredients in the kitchen, so i gave a shot at the recipe ya. After 3 and a half hours of dough preparation, and baking, 'viola' here it is:

i didn't glaze the dough with egg wash, which explains the pale appearance ya- The pastry is really flaky, has a smooth texture and is not too sweet ya, lotsa 'mouthfill' ya~ You can make minor adjustments to the fillings (i.e. tuna or mung bean paste instead).
