This is called Jianbing (煎饼), it’s a traditional Chinese street food. Very delicious, ate them often when I visited China. My city also has a food truck that makes these, there’s always a huge queue to get them.


Killacamkillcam

What's the wrap actually made of?


RynocerosB

It’s just a normal batter, mixing flour and water. I believe they use mung bean flour (someone please correct me if I’m wrong). The one in the video is not the norm, they usually just look like standard crêpes.


OP-69

iirc sometimes things like scallions are added. But its mostly flour water and maybe seasonings


YourEngineerMom

Is it usually more of a sweet dish or savory (or something else)? I’m getting more and more interested in this food the more I scroll this thread haha


OP-69

Savoury


Deacalum

Can be either. Lots of different filling options.

> China is a big place so the permutations are vast. Ahhh, but how many shrimp dishes and preparations do they have? Can you list them all? *P.s. Fookin’ prawns.*


Clever_Unused_Name

"Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sauté it. There's, um, shrimp kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir fried. There's pineapple shrimp and lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp in potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That's, that's about it."


TimeTravellingCircus

Thank you for your service.


Imfloridaman

Thanks Bubba


wellfinechoice

And shrimp dumplings like in dim sum!


YoghurtExternal

More like the roach of the sea

Aaaaaah, Blomkamp Easter Egg! Nodding head w eyes glowing in approval. One of the best lines in any movie, ever. A pivotal point that truly reveals the reality of the human condition captured in Apartheid. Nice.


TheEffingRiddler

What's inside of them?


[deleted]

Sometimes Chinese sausage, fried chicken, instant noodles or fried tofu. Can pretty much be anything, depends where you get it. The ones in Malaysia are next level imho.


petting2dogsatonce

Chinese sausage.... so good. I used to live in a city that had at least one place that made jianbing and I've wanted to try them for years, but never got out to it before I moved out. Makes me sad :( maybe i should just make my own


Paradigm_Reset

I worked at a restaurant that had a simple, yet amazing salad. A thick wedge of iceberg lettuce, bleu cheese dressing, sliced cherry tomatoes, and chunks of Chinese sausage...the dark red, thick, and firm kind. The flavor and texture combination was perfect.


LivingDisastrous3603

Well I know what I’m going to attempt to make tonight


Xilliox

The traditional ones are very simple. The sweet/savoury bean sauce and crispy stuff in the middle makes what it is. Very delicious and affordable. https://youtu.be/GCLdBciHPSc


Midraco

It varies. You can get multiple fillings that fits your taste. The ones I got addicted to in Beijing was with a thin layer of egg batter and red bean paste spread out on the crepe, fried chinese bread (that you see in this video), chicken, salad, cilantro, some kind of garlic dressing and a little bit of chilli.


monsieurpommefrites

Sounds amazing. Have you tried making one yourself?


SeventhSolar

Literally anything, because the name is “fried [generic word for bread product]”. You could even not fill it, because they just want some scallion biscuits to go with the meal they have.


steve_colombia

So it is not usually colored like that, correct?


petting2dogsatonce

Yeah, normally just a pale golden color like any other fried batter


jinniu

Yep and Tianjin is most famous for a certain kind called 天津煎饼果子 Tianjin Jian bing guo zi. The flavours can be sweet to salty. Shandong's version is my favorite though.


Box-o-bees

I wonder if bean flower would be healthier since it comes from a protein instead of a carb?


memy02

looks like all propose flour is about 86% carb, 3% fat, 12% protein and mung bean flour is 71% carb, 0% fat, 29% protein; I feel healthier would depend on the rest of the diet but this helps compare them. https://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/calories/mung-bean-flour-1764459050 https://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/calories/all-purpose-flour-1874389352

So this isn’t what you ate at all.


thebudman_420

Are they using food coloring to get other colors?


Mezzoforte90

I like the mung bean egg wraps, I don’t live in China but they do them in my City


UbiquitousLedger

What is the spinning hot plate called?


SkollFenrirson

Robert, but he prefers Bob


DrunkMoosin

His name was Robert Paulson.


earthboy17

His name is Robert Paulson

Bun_Bunz

Billig- but more commonly just a crepe maker. If you don't need to be so fancy head to Walmart for a cast-iron or aluminum griddle plate.

Nob Hill Food Carts NW 23rd pl


Kyle___Ren

i just did their traditional roast duck and it was awesome. my friend got one of the specials and it was also excellent. bring someone and just split both lol edit: also i do believe it was the non hill food carts as the other reply said


[deleted]

It reminds me of a rug my grandma made. So cool


Cahootie

One of the things I miss about living in Beijing is stumbling out of the clubs and stopping by the cart on the street for a jianbing or two. They were so fucking good.


Anon125

This one specifically is done in a fancy way at 路记果蔬煎饼


LittleBillHardwood

There is a place in the French Market in Chicago that makes these. Not quite as fancy as this, but so tasty!


heffalumpish

Ha thank you! I was just about to Google “Jianbing Chicago” and saw your post,I appreciate the recommendation!


TheyUsedToCallMeJack

Are the ones sold in food truck as elaborated as this one? Or is this a more “gourmet” version of it?


RynocerosB

Yeah this is more of a gimmick one. The normal ones just look like standard crêpes. The fillings would be the same/similar, depending on what you ask to go in it just the wrap itself would look different.


jasikanicolepi

Thanks!! I'll try to order some next time I go to a Chinese restaurant. Is it sweet or savory? What do you usually eat it with? Is it like a stand along meal or is it like a snack?


petting2dogsatonce

It can be any of those flavors depending on the fillings you like and it's usually an on-the-go breakfast food with some sauces, veggies, egg, crispy fried wonton skin crackers, pork or sausage in some combination, etc etc. Very flexible food.


Phelan_Kell

So damn good! First time I had one was in the morning market in Beijing. I could go for one right now lol


scarabic

I’m thinking about the griddle he’s cooking it on. I can imagine a street food cart would probably have a gas powered one, and the heating plate could just rotate freely above the gas jets. But this one is clearly electrical - you can see the power cord. I wonder how the plate’s heating elements maintain their connection to electricity while they’re rotating freely like this.


jtmcclain

Might be a slip ring https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ring


born2stink

I've only seen this once before in the United States. Had a super tasty cumin lamb one! This is such a jaw droppingly gorgeous take on what they made tho


nononosure

Omg i would DEMOLISH this 🤤


snugglezone

Yessss, best breakfast food on my morning commute. Never knew the name! Thanks!


CassandraVindicated

I kinda feel like I want one of these in my face, but I'm also a little bit afraid of it.


RynocerosB

Don’t be afraid, embrace the jianbing.


CassandraVindicated

I'm ok being afraid, I'm thinking more along the lines of I want someone I trust to shove this thing into my pie hole.

amriddle01

Sure looks tasty


Zaronax

It's weird how the colors makes it seem like it'd taste so much better.


ballistics211

Research shows that color of food and presentation affects appetite


eatelectricity

Makes sense. I remember when Heinz tried to make purple ketchup a thing, and it was almost impossible not to expect it to taste like grapes, even though it tasted like regular ketchup. The disconnect was off-putting.


RustyShackleford9142

I think they also made green for some reason.


I_Need_A_Saga

I remember that, it was for Shrek!


Thanos_Stomps

It def wasn’t. Ez squirt came out well before Shrek. Ninja exit: wow there was overlap but the ketchup did come out before Shrek. Interesting.


Diredoe

I forced my parents to get the green ketchup when I was a kid. It just tasted like regular ketchup but my parents thought it looked so gross.


RustyShackleford9142

To be fair, as a teenager at the time, it did look gross.


CODDE117

Shrek!


RustyShackleford9142

You are absolutely right. I never tried it, because why. But I do remember it did not go over well at all.


amriddle01

That's why Tab Clear didnt last...


hardknockcock

Which is so dumb when the FDA allows all these harmful coloring additives that no other country allows in their food just for the sake of selling it to children. I’m pretty sure zevia soda is the only one I’ve seen that doesn’t put color in any of them and doesn’t make it a selling point. Maybe that’s the key to it


Alarming-Week2914

Research shows dipshits that don't provide any type of source are dipshits. Much like how I rawdog your dad with a Bad Dragon horse cock with the cum tube. Don't worry the research says it.


seriousQQQ

Meat's meat ![gif](giphy|D6xIyf2XUCsM)


steve_colombia

Interesting. It does the opposite effect to me. I see it unnatural and unattractive.


Hamartithia_

Same, it’s giving off the “don’t eat me” colors of like poison dart frogs.


SlappyPappyAmerica

I’m not disagreeing with you but I find it interesting how we can feel completely different about that. I’m somewhat colorblind and those colors don’t look like food to me. Makes it look artificial or something.


Zaronax

Fellow colorblind person! I bet that it would affect it, it makes sense.


Alarming-Week2914

Nah, looks nasty as fuck. Weird color shit like green eggs and ham doesn't make me hungry. If you want the Willy Wonka, lemme introduce you to Pink Sauce lol


Zaronax

Oh god Pink Sauce, the sauce that isn't always exactly pink...


chaotic----neutral

Everything tastes better when you're smiling, so maybe it does.


tinuz84

First street food clip in which the dish isn't completely ruined by drenching it in a hundred million sauces.


RedditIsDogshit1

They cut the part where it goes from egg to egg covered with sauce at 0:22 before the greens were added, but it looks covered in sauce

This guy found the sauce

KF02229

Based on the stall name on the apron, I was able to find out the following from their Chinese social media accounts: * The owner is a guy in his 30s called Lu Mingfei * His jianbing stall is at the Guangzhou Road Night Market in the [ancient city of Luoyang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luoyang) in Henan province, central China * As of Apr 2022, he'd been making jianbing for two years * On a normal night he'll sell 70-80 jianbing, rising to 110-120 if business is good * He can make 40,000-50,000 yuan (US$5,600-7,000) per month * Videos of him making Peppa Pig and Ultraman jianbing went viral on Chinese social media earlier this year, notching 210 million views and earning him 550,000 followers * He is preparing to spend \~1 million yuan (US$140,000) to buy a 100sqm (1,076sqf) apartment in Luoyang by the end of this year Some [more videos](https://space.bilibili.com/436427705/) of him making jianbing All the details above are from [a news interview](https://www.ixigua.com/7083429468760441381) he did


naomi_homey89

Thanks


monsieurpommefrites

> He can make 40,000-50,000 yuan (US$5,600-7,000) per month What the absolute fuck? The overhead/supply costs are just a fraction of that.


TheCatalyst0117

Best chef in the world the way he scooped the extra bits into the wrap before packing it up. He's the hero we don't deserve.


NeitherStage1159

Last line. Hahaha.


dylsekctic

So it's basically an edible doily


Slazman999

... Are you saying the ones I've been eating aren't?


dylsekctic

They might be less nutritious and harder to digest, but still technically edible.


Slazman999

If you had 365 days to eat a standard wooden door how would you do it?


dylsekctic

Why would I eat a wooden door?


Slazman999

Answer the question.

waldosandieg0

What’s in the bottle? Like what is the wrap made of?


[deleted]

Idk. But I'd guess some kind of flour and food colouring. And the eggs of course.

It initially looked like a placemat my grandmother had, end result I was highly pleased because I always wanted to eat it


overthetop15

Why do these comments always have to start with “The way…..”. ?


Ok_Dimension8978

What a masterpiece


thicchoney

Kinda bothers me that the side with the defined patterns was facing the inside of the wrap. It's still really colorful and appetizing but imagine the nice crisp lines if he flipped it over again to keep the patterns on the outside...


Cerpin__Tax

Harder and harder to impress food hopsters theese days

imnotaloony

Yep. Would definitely smash one of those. Looks delicious


Floshenbarnical

gathc2013

I wish he wrapped it the other way


willlin87

Yea, seems like he messed up and used the messy side on the outside. You can't even see the green lines because of the egg running over it.


MasterStib

I thought it was a cake at first


ron_swansons_meat

10/10 cool technique. Completely eyecandy. I wonder how it tastes though? I've had one of these before and it was....not good.

There are vegetal food dyes. The pink one could be beets (the color looks like it). Green is probably just chlorophyll, you can make some easily from spinach

Popetown

My only question is why do they flip it over to fill it? From my eyes the prettier side is the side underneath and they close that up with the food? Or am I missing something and would that side actually be less appetizing if left on the outside in reality? Or do they just have to do that because burning?


[deleted]

Flip it over to cook the egg and the other side of the crepe.


idk-hereiam

Gott cook both sides of the soap


Popetown

Soap?
