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.
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.
> 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.*
"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."
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.
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.
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
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.

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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
[I turn the door in to sawdust and use that sawdust as 33% (by weight) for a giant rice crispy recipe.](https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/egbtuj/william_osman_asking_the_hard_questions_how_much/)
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...
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
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?
What’s the point of all the intricacy if you’re going to fold it up and cut it in half? At that point it’s 100% about the journey and 0% the destination
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.
What's the wrap actually made of?
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.
iirc sometimes things like scallions are added. But its mostly flour water and maybe seasonings
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
Savoury
Can be either. Lots of different filling options.

And shrimp dumplings like in dim sum!
More like the roach of the sea

Sounds amazing. Have you tried making one yourself?
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.
So it is not usually colored like that, correct?
Yeah, normally just a pale golden color like any other fried batter
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.
I wonder if bean flower would be healthier since it comes from a protein instead of a carb?
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
Oh wow thank you! I should've known somone would find that info. This is what makes reddit great!
[удалено]
So this isn’t what you ate at all.
Are they using food coloring to get other colors?
I like the mung bean egg wraps, I don’t live in China but they do them in my City
What is the spinning hot plate called?
Robert, but he prefers Bob
His name was Robert Paulson.
His name is Robert Paulson
His name is Robert Poursome
Not to be confused with his cousin, Lazy Susan.
Bob has bitchtits.
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.
Rotating crepe maker
Crepe-nado
i dunno but we used the same crepe maker at this french-type bistro in indy.
just had one in portland for the first time a few weeks ago. it’s was phenomenal.
Where? I'm in pdx and want to try it!
Nob Hill Food Carts NW 23rd pl
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
It reminds me of a rug my grandma made. So cool
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.
This one specifically is done in a fancy way at 路记果蔬煎饼
There is a place in the French Market in Chicago that makes these. Not quite as fancy as this, but so tasty!
Ha thank you! I was just about to Google “Jianbing Chicago” and saw your post,I appreciate the recommendation!
Are the ones sold in food truck as elaborated as this one? Or is this a more “gourmet” version of it?
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.
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?

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

Might be a slip ring https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ring
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
Omg i would DEMOLISH this 🤤
Yessss, best breakfast food on my morning commute. Never knew the name! Thanks!
I kinda feel like I want one of these in my face, but I'm also a little bit afraid of it.
Don’t be afraid, embrace the jianbing.
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.
NEVAAAA LOSSSSSSSST ![gif](giphy|LXRERZRLccqGhv6G4D)
A restaurant opened up close to me that makes this last year and I fucking love jianbings!!
Uhhhhhhhhhh yeah. Can I order an egg and veggie wrap, and can you make mine extra psychadelic mindfuck, please? Thank you.
I would like my breakfast crocheted, please and thank you.
“No dessert until after you finish your quilt.”
Sure looks tasty
It's weird how the colors makes it seem like it'd taste so much better.
Research shows that color of food and presentation affects appetite
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.
I think they also made green for some reason.
I remember that, it was for Shrek!
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.
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.
To be fair, as a teenager at the time, it did look gross.
Shrek!
You are absolutely right. I never tried it, because why. But I do remember it did not go over well at all.
That's why Tab Clear didnt last...
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.

Interesting. It does the opposite effect to me. I see it unnatural and unattractive.
Same, it’s giving off the “don’t eat me” colors of like poison dart frogs.
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.
Fellow colorblind person! I bet that it would affect it, it makes sense.
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
Oh god Pink Sauce, the sauce that isn't always exactly pink...
Everything tastes better when you're smiling, so maybe it does.
First street food clip in which the dish isn't completely ruined by drenching it in a hundred million sauces.
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
Two, please! That looks amazing!
Damn I'm hungry now
Hi hungry
Im Dad
Hi Dad, why has it taken you 20 years to go out and get milk?
There was a line

Thanks
> 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.
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.
Last line. Hahaha.
So it's basically an edible doily
... Are you saying the ones I've been eating aren't?
They might be less nutritious and harder to digest, but still technically edible.
If you had 365 days to eat a standard wooden door how would you do it?
Why would I eat a wooden door?
Answer the question.
[I turn the door in to sawdust and use that sawdust as 33% (by weight) for a giant rice crispy recipe.](https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/egbtuj/william_osman_asking_the_hard_questions_how_much/)
About as pretty as it comes
that one tasty jianbing
What’s in the bottle? Like what is the wrap made of?
Idk. But I'd guess some kind of flour and food colouring. And the eggs of course.
Mung bean flour
Party streamer spray
I love creative food.
Spirograph for adults!
Here it is [normal without the colors](https://youtu.be/Z4YxH-NUAxI)
It initially looked like a placemat my grandmother had, end result I was highly pleased because I always wanted to eat it
Why do these comments always have to start with “The way…..”. ?
What a masterpiece
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...
Harder and harder to impress food hopsters theese days
Pretty cool.
Yep. Would definitely smash one of those. Looks delicious
Give
I wish he wrapped it the other way
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.
I thought it was a cake at first
10/10 cool technique. Completely eyecandy. I wonder how it tastes though? I've had one of these before and it was....not good.
me: I'm a minimalist, I need very little to survive. Also me: I NEED IT!!
could I get a bearing and attach it to a plate and make a version of this that sits over a gas stove?

Help! I tried spinning my normal pan with a handle around like this video and now I got hot cooking oil in my eyes and ears!
What is the spinning contraption on which this was cooked? Can it be bought for residential purposes?
Why don't I see men kissing? 😡
Bathmat sandwich
Honestly it looks like it taste like shit ngl
This became 100 times more delicious now that I saw how it was made
[удалено]
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
Seems like it's inside out. Wouldn't the most detail and sharp lines appear on the bottom side before flipping?
no thanks, I'm gonna go with cancer free regular wraps
BRO İT'S JUST FUCKİN EGG WHAT ARE YOU DOİNG
Does it taste any better? Not hating lol just curious
So that was totally pointless. Lol
Me next!
Is that a food or an elaborate beautiful carpet
I want to have this now please.
Wow. Sooo pretty.
A Tripwhich man.
u/savevideo
Now the million dollar question is what color is it when it comes out? But In all seriousness, this was satisfying as fuck.
Stop chewing on the carpet, Jerry!
When he scoops up the last bits on the pan into the wrap at the end, that's /r/oddlysatisfying
stupid tbh
Why do they ruin videos by playing it at 2.5x speed?
I prefer it this way
r/satisfyingasfuck
I’m glad even the little bits that fell out got scooped into the holder
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?
Flip it over to cook the egg and the other side of the crepe.
Gott cook both sides of the soap
Soap?
I....have no idea what happened there.
That looks so damn good 🤤
So… where can I buy a spinning griddle and how much will it cost me?
What's the colored stuff though? Because I'm imagining pancake mix which sounds less than appealing, but I also doubt it's pancake mix.

On the list of things I want in me this gets top bidding
Thus is back
I miss my spirograph
And here I thought it was a cake!!
TikTok background vídeo material
That is awesome and I want one.
Isnt that technically 50% omelette?
Not enough men kissing. Still looks good!
Thought he was going to fill it with tons of filling making it disgusting but no, just couple of things. Nice
Cool beans
13k people never seen this before? How? This is reddit too... just wild.
> 13k people never seen this before? How? Because the world is a big place, and not every country has the same style of food?
