Homemade Golden Syrup


Golden Syrup is used in many Chinese dessert, one of the recipes that calls for golden syrup is traditional moon cakes. I used to buy from confectionery store one bottle 700g for RM4.60 and some I bought at RM6.90, the difference from homemade I could tell is aroma is stronger and colour is darker (cooked longer) for homemade. 


It isn't hard to cook in Thermomix. I did a comparison between traditional way of cooking golden syrup, we need to use a brush to "water" the pot to prevent syrup from cristalize whereas Thermomix is just the 3 circles!!! 

Thankful of Madeline shared her recipe with us, this encouraged me to try on my own to cooking golden syrup, if you could compare the way cooking in pot, Thermomix rocks!!

Here it is the video of How to pleat and shape the bao

4) Place each char shao bao on a square parchment paper. You don't like it to be stuck on the Varoma tray. Let it prove for 30 minutes.
