Cherry Pastry Box

　　Cherry Pastry Box, a type of crisp pastry. Features: square box shape, white as jade in color, crispy crust with sweet filling. Cooking method: fried.

　　Diced honey cherries and skinned, fried and crisp peach kernels; diced, pork back fat is deboned and minced, then mixed with sugar and a small amount of fried flour to make the filling. wT9

　　The oil-water dough is divided into 15-gram pieces, wrapped around the oil-based dough, rolled and folded into a round skin, then filled with the prepared filling. The edges of the round skin are lifted to form a square box shape, with the seams sealed with decorative scallops. It is then deep-fried in lard until cooked, removed from the pan, and a single candied red cherry is placed in the center to finish. wT9

　　Key points: Ensure the square box is neatly shaped during assembly; use slightly higher oil temperature when frying. wT9
