When talking about Pea puree cake, people think most of the old Pea puree cake. In fact, we also have Pea puree cake in Henan. The method is not the same as that of the old Beijing. The processing method of the main ingredient of pea is basically the same, but our Pea puree cake needs persimmon in the middle. In fact, I prefer the Pea puree cake in Henan, because there are persimmon sandwiches, which taste rich, and the sweetness of persimmon and the bean flavor of peas complement each other, very delicious. I remember when I was young, we would have Pea puree cake in winter and spring, because there were persimmons in this season, and we could not eat them in other times. Although Pea puree cake can be bought in supermarkets all year round, the traditional persimmon sandwich can only be bought in winter and spring. I like Pea puree cake very much, so I often make it at home in this season. It used to be very troublesome to make Pea puree cake. It had to be cooked, broken and fried, which took time and effort. Nowadays, there are also many appliances in the kitchen, and using machines makes it effortless to make. So you can make it anytime you want, and I often make it as a gift. To be honest, what you make yourself tastes better than what you buy

Technique
Steps to make [Henan] Persimmon sandwich Pea puree cake
- 1. Choose dried peas that have been peeled, not those with skins on!
- 2. Soak the peas in water half a day in advance until they swell and their volume doubles
- 3. Add water and basically level the beans, and then use the baby Congee stall of the electric rice cooker to boil the beans until they are soft and rotten. It takes 2 hours to cook baby Congee. If it takes too much time, you can also press it with a pressure cooker for 10 minutes.
- 4. Pour the boiled beans into the blender and add rock sugar powder while stirring until crushed. The blender is very delicate, and if you don't have it, you can use other cooking machines as long as they can crush it.
- 5. The mashed pea paste is very delicate. Even if it's not very delicate, it doesn't affect solidification, so there's no need to worry without a wall breaking machine.
- 6. Due to the high moisture content of the bean paste, it can be placed in a bread machine and stir fried for about 20 minutes using the stir fry function. The specific frying time depends on the moisture content of the bean paste, and if there is more water, stir fry for a while longer. If you don't have a bread maker, you can manually stir fry in a wok. Just let the water dry a little, don't stir fry it completely
- 7. Cut persimmon cakes into strips. I used hanging persimmon cakes, which are very sweet.
- 8. Pour a portion of the stir fried bean paste into the container first, then lay a layer of persimmon cakes on top, and then pour the remaining bean paste onto top
- 9. It's cold now, let it sit in the kitchen for about 2 hours. Once it's completely cooled, it can be poured out
- 10. Cut it open and see that there is a layer of persimmon cake inside, which is very delicious
