What is a Yu Mooncake?
A Yu Mooncake is Grass Jelly Mooncake. The mooncake itself is made of sweet sticky rice dough, the same used for mochi skins or snow skin. Insidel, coated with anko (red bean) paste is the delicate-made grass jelly filling. The mooncake is shaped to be round and flat, resembling the moon's shape. It is usually savored during a full moon.
According to superstition, one can be blessed with fortune and luck if they eat the mooncake on a full moon with theit lover.
Such a simple mooncake actually hides a magic secret.
The secret ingredient to all the magic stored in that one specific mooncake is golden flower root, or the root of a dandelion. It is not only delicious but the Yu Mooncake grants eternal health. The downside is that its effect only works on old people, so the eternal health can only be granted to them. Youthful people will only be given the magic effect of feeling better from the illness they may suffer at hand and may help clear up symptoms from a disease they might have from birth or just received. This mooncake recipe was created for health benefits and tasteful enjoyment.
That is the power of Grass Jelly Mooncake, Yu Mooncake.
