Today I want to tell you how to make fortune cookies. The tradition of baking such cookies originated in ancient China. And they owe their shape to cowrie shells. At that time they were used as money. Therefore, the symbolism of such cookies is quite clear.
Chinese fortune cookies resembled the currency of the time: shells. And the predictions, as a rule, promised wealth. For many centuries this tradition was forgotten, but in our time it has found a second wind. Nowadays, not only predictions are placed in cookies, but also wishes or confessions. I think this is a very sweet and kind tradition.
Kitchen tools: bowl, spoon, mixer.
Required Ingredients
All the ingredients for these cookies are available in every kitchen. But still I will give some advice. Choose sunflower vegetable oil and be sure to be odorless. You need medium sized eggs. If you use too small or too large, the proportions will be off. Take white, wheat, premium flour.
Cooking sequence
Let's start cooking. The first step is to prepare your predictions. Because cookies cook quickly, you need to shape the finished cookies even faster. Predictions are written on a small piece of paper about 6 cm long.
- We take out parchment paper. Place it on a baking sheet and spread the dough on it.
- You need to make small round ones pancakes with a diameter of 7-8 cm. To make them even, you can draw circles on the parchment with a compass. You can also use round shapes without bottom. Once the dough is applied, you can put the cookies in the oven.
- I'm heating up the oven up to 180 degrees and bake 5 minutes.
- When the cookies have browned a little, take them out of the oven. It needs to be formed while it is hot. Because when the cookies cool, they will become brittle and brittle. You can remove the cookies from the parchment with a spatula, as they tend to stick.
- Take the fortune paper and place it on the cookies. It can be unfolded, or it can be folded several times. Then fold the cookies in half to make a semicircle.
- Bend the cookies over the edge of the glass and let cool in this form. Can be placed in the same glass or in a mold for baking cupcakes so that the cookies do not unfurl.
When the cookies have cooled, they are ready. Now you know how to bake your own fortune cookies
