With this discovery, I am more settled and are able to justify why is there a flavour difference between home made and store bought. I called 3 major bakeries in Singapore and apparently, none of have heard of this flavouring. I Goggled and I found that there is such an industrial flavouring available in the market but mostly in China. I started to suspect there must be some flavouring for lotus paste. It tastes almost the same for moon cakes that are prepared by different stores in different regions. The taste are so consistent be it in Singapore, Hong Kong or Malaysia. I do not think that there is anything wrong with the procedures, it is what is included in the commercially sold lotus seeds paste that puzzled me. Not only the colour, it taste exactly like cooked lotus seeds.It is understandable that since it is made of lotus seeds, it must taste like lotus seeds. ![]() Hmmmm, the outcome of homemade lotus seed paste does not taste like what is sold in the store. I test my patience to clean the lotus seeds one by one, boiled, mash and stir fry it …. i personally found that commercially sold lotus seed paste is aromatic and taste different from the lotus seeds found in the Chinese desserts.ĭespite the fact that I do not like lotus seeds, for the sake of lotus seed paste, I have decided to try preparing it myself. I swear that I never like lotus seeds in desserts, not even until now… But it is very strange that I like lotus seed paste. ![]()
