Hello Chef John, uncurred meats do not add nitrates and nitrites. Many people are allergic to these chemicals. Plenty of salt is used. 😋 This looks delicious.
I`d like to add some fish sauce to this, just a little bit. Also i prefer to pre boli rice noodels, for just few of seconds, maybe i`d add some more ginger to kick some that asian flavour.
When my mother took Chinese cooking lessons from a woman from Hong Kong, she was taught that the difference between an "egg roll" and a "spring roll" is that the former was dipped in beaten egg before being fried, which is why egg rolls had bubbly surfaces and spring rolls didn't. Your non-dipped egg rolls, however, had the bubbly surface, which I found most impressive!
The final music was starting and we hadn't yet heard "you are after all the (insert) of your (insert)". My favorite part of any of these wonderful videos. Love this channel, John. Such a pick-me-up from the daily grind.
really? I was thinking that the "you are after all the ______, of your ______" is a tiresome cliche and was looking forward to finally seeing a video that doesn't have it. oh well, his recipes are legit, so I put up with him having basically become a meme of himself at this point
My daughter and I really love making egg rolls for weekday lunches. We always end the meal with dessert egg rolls, for example strawberry preserves or chocolate ganache. Yum
Egg Roll wrappers. (Like this show). Blisters, thick and chewy. Think Jack in the Box. Spring Roll wrappers. (No egg in pastry). Thin and crispy. But the flakey shell can be messy. 💁🏻♀️
I'd encourage you to try any one of Chef John's recipes because they never fail. Seriously, cooking is one of the great joys in life and Chef John is a master teacher. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. Also, never let the food win!
Try! Allow yourself to fail, it's the only way you'll become a better cook. BTW, I reckon Chef John's videos are great at making any recipe seem simple. Some books and other online chefs really overcomplicate things.
As kids, when mom made sauerkraut, we would eat the cores of the cabbages. Mmm 😋. The sweet spiciness of the core was so great. And we didn’t know how good it was for us. My wife and I love your work. Thanks
dry vermicelli is brilliant! I usually make a mess squeezing excess liquid out of the cabbage. You cut time and made a better egg roll while saving all of the flavor.
Yes! When I was a kid in the late 60s early 70s that’s how Chinese restaurants made their eggs rolls in our city. They were so good, they had bean sprouts, no cabbage and they were huge, the size of 2-3 of today’s. I wish I could still find them.
@@NeverMind353 I would've been more specific: my wife wasn't sure what "we would" make that day. I always help make/prepare meals with her, especially on holidays when we're hosting. I cook all the time, and enjoy it. Both my wife & I love cooking/making food.
Thanks Chef John! My mother and I used to do the same thing with turkey after thanksgiving. Then we would freeze them and get them out as snacks for the Christmas holidays-always a big hit!
My fishmonger makes egg rolls/lumpia with, you guessed it, seafood (cod, salmon, shrimp, mussels), noodles and vegetables including beansprouts. It is a very tasty combination, perhaps you can do something with the idea.
The chinese place near my parents had AMAZING eggrolls and they make their ducksauce from scratch. My parents used to buy jugs of that to keep around. Boy do I miss it, never had better.
Around the outside? Need a 2nd, around the outside! lol. It's all good. 600th like for me! haha, but wow never made an egg roll but these look so good and easy will definitely be giving this a try soon!
sorry to hear. not sure why. I wonder if You Tube thinks your membership expired, Are they still charging you the monthly fee? Regardless, I'll let Chef John know. Maybe he can get the corporate overlords to look into it if you are being charged but cannot post. Where you today's chat?
I do not, but I'm sorry to hear that. Where you at today's chat? Did You Tube charge last month? Mine usually renews the middle of the month each month. I should be at Saturday's chat and will look for you in the list of participants and will try to tag you in a comment.
@@davidcarbone3385 i was there today and asked a few questions with no response I will be in the chat Saturday. Yes they took the money as usual. Thanks for your help
This might be the best thing I’ve ever taken from your always ‘the new best thing’ offering. I love spring rolls, as well as egg rolls. Haven’t watched the whole thing yet, I’m only hoping a deep fryer is not going to be the feared option. All too often I find myself shopping for yet another kitchen gadget that might make my life fuller and complete. They never do, but my kitchen is certainly fuller than it used to be. ❤
You can make them in an air fryer. The trick is to spray them good with oil so they crisp up and bubble on the outside and maybe give them another spray about have way through.
@@Robb403 I finally did get to end and it reaffirmed that a deep fryer is not needed, I’d suspected his shown option would be the alternative. Had not thought about your suggestion, I’m a fan of the air fry option and it will be my first attempt. Those rolls looked so tempting I’m pretty sure it’s tonight’s meal. Even if I skip the exterior wrapping, the filling is enough to make my tastebuds drool as I’m thinking about it now. 👍
uncured ham is cured with celery powder that works just like curing salts (nitrate, nitrite) Celery Juice Powder contains naturally occurring nitrites and nitrates (which breakdown to nitrites with the help of bacteria native in meat itself). Celery Juice Powder (aka CJP) is now commonly being used for giving sausages and meats a cured appearance and taste without the use of synthetic sodium nitrite/nitrate.
When I was working as a marine engineer we used to call these VLCCs (very large crude carriers) which is a type of oil tanker. And if cookie came out with the big ones they were ULCCs (ultra-large crude carriers).
Egg rolls often also have bean sprouts in them for added crunch! Sometimes they replace the vermicelli noodles entirely and can be called Chop Suey Rolls in takeaways.
Chef John, I’m having so much fun watching you and making food that is delicious. I realize that I need some kitchen supplies. What is a good knife to cut vegetables? Some suggestions? Thanks! 😊
Those look excellent. I don't know if you've tried it, but if you don't have rice sticks handy, it also works pretty good with instant ramen noodles. I crush up a pack and add it dry to the vegetables after they start to soften. Stir for a few times and they soak up the liquid and soften a bit. Then proceed as usual.
Yesterday, being St Patrick's Day, makes me think this recipe/technique would work well for corned beef and cabbage and carrots. With a bit of grainy mustard sauce to dip them in.
I do have a recipe for egg rolls with eggs, they're in the wrapper. Where I grew up there was an internment camp in the 40's. In 1967 the Nisie Woman's Society of Christian Service at the Community Methodist Church wrote a little cook book. Yes the recipes have been adapted using available ingredients. These are very good tho, almost like deep fried crepes stuffed with all the filling
I would add a bit of taro root or any potato thinly sliced and edamame peas. It will take to another level of deliciousness. Thank you for sharing. 😁😁😘😘🥰🥰.
"And by decided to, I mean remembered to" = 2 full minutes of laughing; Oh, and also, when you said Dave Grohl, I was picturing David Groh who played Valerie Harper's significant other on the TV show Rhoda.
No lie, I thought from the thumbnail that the sauce was a hollandaise and now I’m dying to know what these would be like with a fresh side of hollandaise.
@@handlenot030 my point is that the current culture thinks it's totally ok to abuse Christians, but say a negative word about other religions and you will literally get death threats and police knocking on your door "just to chat".

Hey chef johns I got dish you should cook it called Himmel und Erde it traditional German dish of mashed potato with stewed apples. It is frequently served with sliced blood sausage.
Thanks Chef....Am looking for All Sauce's recopies, your sweet mustard looks yummy....also pickles an chutneys ,hoping to see your take on some easy DIY versions...Cheers From Adelaide SA.
Great idea Chef John! Just wondering if I could cook them out using an Air Fryer instead of frying in oil? Any thoughts from you or the chat, will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

"An under-filled eggroll, is an evil eggroll" - wisdom. Also true for sandwiches and wraps.

I've made egg/spring rolls many times but it never once occurred to me to cook the vermicelli dry instead of soaking it first. BRILLIANT!!

😂
@@JB-xl2jcthere isn't one. He shows up in all of Chef John's comments saying the same thing.
Don't feed the trolls
Chef John, I trust you 100%, and maybe it's a regional thing, but the wrappers for an egg roll and a spring roll are distinctly different in my area.
Egg roll wrappers have egg in them while spring roll wrappers do not. Thus the egg in the name.
Maybe he was referring to people misnaming them?
Egg Roll wrappers. (Like this show). Blisters, thick and chewy. Think Jack in the Box.
Spring Roll wrappers. (No egg in pastry). Thin and crispy. But the flakey shell can be messy. 💁🏻♀️

I agree, CJ's channel and all his community kept me sane during lockdown.
The real fun is when you hide your Easter egg rolls around the house for the kids to find.
🤣🤣🤣
Kids hate veggies and especially peas!. (Never me). So when they nasally notice the green suspects, they'll steer miles away and hate you "forever".
@@pacmantravel2158. LOL, yes, but more for me!
Leaving the mix in the fridge for a couple of hours is a good idea. THX.
If more people made egg rolls at home the family would thrive.
A tablespoon of minced ginger, goes well with the frying garlic…(common prelude in many Chinese dishes)
"when you're ready to roll"... Nicely done 😂
"An underfilled egg roll is an evil egg roll." 😂 That is true.
Also "Fork don't lie". 😆 Again, true.
And they look so delicious! Gotta try this.

dry vermicelli is brilliant! I usually make a mess squeezing excess liquid out of the cabbage. You cut time and made a better egg roll while saving all of the flavor.
back in the 80's a take out place in Reseda Ca dipped their egg rolls in a batter , I think with eggs.
The best ever!

of making sure his comments aren't malarkey

They aren't hatin on the lack of flavor.
Easter egg rolls for Easter dinner it is! (My wife has been panicking, because she doesn't know what to make that day) Thanks chef John!
Or you could make them yourself
@@NeverMind353While men are typically more proficient at cooking, it is traditionally a job for the wife. Particularly if the man is the breadwinner.

They look like a good treat (without the ham) for Good Friday.
I'd eat these without ham, I bet that veggie mixture is delicious 😋!
Do you substitute with anything, or just the veggie mix the way Chef John has made it?
Thanks Chef John! My mother and I used to do the same thing with turkey after thanksgiving. Then we would freeze them and get them out as snacks for the Christmas holidays-always a big hit!

Walmart sells bagged Angel Hair cabbage (only green). It is a very finely sliced cabbage and handy dandy to keep in the fridge.
