【Tianjin】Spring rolls

Overview

Spring rolls are a traditional and ancient dish that evolved from ancient spring dishes. Traditional spring rolls are made with pancakes as the skin and stuffed with celery, leeks, and spring bamboo shoots. They symbolize hard work, longevity, and prosperity, and are used to welcome the new year. Spring rolls welcome the spring, which means good things. It is a dish that my family must make during the Chinese New Year. Although there are many spring rolls on the market now and there are many varieties, Zerui’s mother still likes to make her own spring rolls. After all, the ones she buys are not as safe as those made at home. And making spring rolls by yourself makes the New Year atmosphere even more intense. The fried spring rolls made by Zerui’s mother today still retain the basic recipe, but slightly changed the fillings, using bean sprouts, shredded chicken, carrots and leeks, which symbolize good luck, good fortune, prosperity and longevity, and have beautiful meanings. They are very suitable for making dishes to welcome the New Year~~~
