Hey guys, so if you're looking to make Jianbing but you're finding it difficult to recreate the sort of set-up we had going on here, one of our subscribers/frequent commenters made a great video how to make this abroad here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/k5uCyIB7oolidaA Some nice tips there. Between our two video recipes, is should be enough to get the job done :) And be sure to check out his channel, lots of good content, and way better at editing videos than me lol

You're gong to laugh upon reading this but I am being totally serious. I also wouldn't suggest it if it weren't delicious. Instead of a crunch factor, settle for a crispy. Use Frosted Flakes cereal. lol. I'm dead serious. I was not even stoned when I made it. I'm quite certain that the reason it worked for us was because the sauce we used to brush was very flavourful and slightly and pleasantly salty. We first tried regular corn flakes but they weren't sturdy enough and lost it's texture so fast. Really brought nothing to the jianbing party but the Frosted Flakes was something else. Whether anyone tries this or not, I just wanted to put it out there. LOL

Hi, I was born in Tianjin (Tientsin) in 1935 and used to eat these on my way to school from the British Concession to the French concession. The way I recall it, when you ordered your jianbing guozi, you always got a jianbing with a youtiao or cruller. Also the hawker never flipped the egg side over, he simply folded the youtiao in and added the sauces which I recall as being mostly yellow bean sauce, and if you wanted la, the chili. We left China when Mao took over. When I returned as a tourist in 1988, the first thing I got the guide to show me was a stall selling this. He did the flip and used the biscuit and it did not taste the same. I went back to China in 2005 to have a reunion of Japanese prisoners of war, and they had started adding in meat and lettuce. I think the old way was best.

Wow, what a story! I'm 21 and my family lives in the old British concession, on Taian Rd. (I believe in 1935 that's the “Meadours Rd.”?), as a native "Tianjin ren", I'm proud to tell you, that the old way still exists, the city as ever, is full of jianbing guozi fundamentalists. I can assure you that we real Tianjin people will never, EVER put meat or lettuce in our jianbing! btw we still bring our own eggs to the stall, how cool is that! One can just go buy groceries and let the eggs join the queue instead. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't find the old jianbing guozi when you returned, I think what you encountered is the equivalent of the so-called "Italiano" restaurants in Rome or the"Francaise" ones in Paris. People think they're getting some real local food, but instead, they're getting the classical tourist city rip-off. But do come back after the pandemic, Tianjin is still the beautiful city it was!

I don't think I'd ever commit to making, this but I loved learning the process. I was especially excited to have you break down the mistery sauce. That being said, I vehemently reject your filling choices. I'm very anti lettuce in Jian Bing; it wilts too easy. Also, while I love a good mystery meat as much as the next guy, I find it a little gag inducing in this otherwise pretty delicate street snack. My topping combination came from a little hole in the wall outlet of some fried chicken chain in Wudaokou, right down the street from the Tsinghua main gate. The most common and basic filling there was vegetarian. It subbed the lettuce for heartier Chinese cabbage and included and some ambiguous pickles to cut the richness. Can I request that you put the griddle to use again and take on Kaolengmian (烤冷面)?

If finding mung flour is difficult, mung beans can be soaked for several hours and blended to a fine paste. That's how pesarattu (essentially a mung bean dosa) is made.
@ChineseCookingDemystified
7 жыл бұрын
Haha yeah I decided to go over just that in the reddit post :). The super old school pure mungbean Tianjin style jianbing actually goes through the same process, and after looking up pesarattu the similarities with the Tianjin jianbing are fascinating. I'll copy/paste that portion of the reddit post in case anyone else is curious: ____________________________________________________ So I always like to do a quick inventory on what’s available on the USA Amazon.com to see what’s easy for people outside China to source. I *could* find mungbean flour (note: mungbean flour is *not* mungbean starch!), but it’s nowhere near as common as the mungbeans themselves. I mean, even Bob’s Red Mill has bags of mungbeans that you can buy. I assume most people don’t really own their own gristmills, but it’s still possible to work with whole mungbeans. Measure out 60g of mungbeans, cover it with water, and leave them to soak for at least eight hours. It’s ideal if you can swap the water a few times while soaking (which will help remove the grassy taste of the mungbean), but for the small amount that we’re adding it’s not imperative. After soaking, drain and weigh them again. The difference between the new weight and the original 60g is the added water from soaking. So then add enough water to the soaked mungbeans to get 480 grams total, then blend that til it’s smooth. Add in the rest of the ingredients for the batter, and you’re on your way.

In the other street food videos nobody used two eggs. I think overdoing the egg will spoil the taste and turn it in to an omelette. Perhaps you weren't sure if it was going to hold together and that's why you added two eggs. This is very similar to the Indian dosa but in India batter is made after soaking and grinding rice and urad Dal in a preferred proportion after which it is left to ferment overnight. The mung Dal dosa is called pesarattu.

Is there any difference if I flip vs if I don't? Why do the street vendors I've seen not flip the jianbing? Is it to save time, or just a preference thing?
@Poppies__

The egg is suppose to be on the outside. The correct way to make Jianbing Guozi is: pour the jianbing mixture on pan, then add egg on top, when the egg is almost solidified, you flip the whole jianbing over, so the egg side will be on the bottom touching the pan, then proceed to add the other stuffs like green onions, cilantros etc on top side of jianbing, and roll it up when done. This is the authentic way of how ppl make it in China.

Hi, do you think the sauce used here would be similar to the one used in 酱香饼?

We can now get Jianbing here in London thanks to Pleasant Lady in Soho or Spitalfields.

Is the info for the Tianjin version missing from Reddit? I don't see it in the recipe post.

I'm looking forward to this vid, because earlier this spring i'd taught myself a half dozen varieties of fermented dosa batter, which is a southern indian dish similar to the crepes in your video. Cheers. I saw Trevor's vid back when it first same out. Trev's great, and his vids are awesome.

1:08 SPREADER TIP: Personally, I prefer to use a 4 fl oz stainless steel ingredient ramekin ... i use the top of the ramekin to scoop and pour a measured amount of batter, then use the bottom to gently spread it in an outward spiral pattern. The trick is to wait just long enough for the bottom layer of a crepe to start setting (3-6 sec, depending on temp), and then holding the ramekin upright at just the right height so that the bottom and sides move the uncooked upper layer of batter outwards. It takes a little practice to get the height and speed just right. 1:13 SCRAPER . . . I vastly prefer to use a long blade thin metal spatula, with a blade that is 8-10" long. I use it for crepes, pancakes, quesedillas, and for grilling. A mere scraper seems way too small to turn, flip and/or fold crepes, esp larger ones. Trust me, get a long blade spatula. 1:23 BATTER ... first, it is a "batter", not a dough. Next, a question for you: do most of your street venders soak, wet grind, and ferment their batter, or do they use the shortcut you demo where you just blend the desired flour types with water and seasoning and skip the usual overnight fermentation ? Dosas are always fermented, and I pictured the chinese analog as being the same way .. but ive never made a chinese version. Fermentation creates a much more flavorful (and slightly sour) crepe, and also increases the bioavailability of the nutrients in the batter. If you are curious, I can work out a fermented batter for you.

Awesome - yeah, if you got a dosa set-up the only potential headache's that mungbean flour. Trevor's been great, really chill that he's given us full license to grab footage for these vids - I really think street food shots can help illustrate points here or there. As much as I'd love to go out and film some myself, still tough with our fulltime jobs :)

Mung flour i can get, but i rarely bother. I think you overlooked the point of my earlier post ... in general, i dont use the flour shortcut when i make multigrain batters for things like dosa, dhokla, et al. I always try to learn and follow a traditional approach (if something is the way they did it 100 yrs ago, im in) - in this case i'd use an appropriate mix of grains for the style i want, soak overnight, wet grind to a thick batter, then ferment 8hrs or so at 100F, and then season to taste and dilute for consistency ... same way as is done in restaurants (the ones worth going to). Whole grains keep far longer than their respective flours, so the result is that i avoid the need to keep a large assortment of specialty flours with fairly short shelf lives, the result tastes better, and working with raw materials instead of intermediate convenience products promotes a deeper and more complete understanding. Sorry to preech, but this is an integral aspect of my approach to cooking as well as most of my other hobbies. I always take a ground up nuts and bolts approach ... it helps keep me interested and still on a learning curve. 😁

Here is an example of a short vid on how to make a fermented batter from scratch for dosa or dhokla ... a good example of how to avoid the need for specialty flours. kzitem.info/news/bejne/xHuCvpONrqyDmaw Tip: double the soak time suggested by the vid to 8 hrs.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to ya, things get busy around editing time. So the super traditional Tianjin Jianbing uses basically all Mungbeans (with a bit of millet), soaked then blended. Take a look at this video of an old jianbing shop in Tianjing - it's in Chinese, but hopefully you could get an idea with the visuals: kzitem.info/news/bejne/smh9zoSLjaSraWUm25s Basically, she talks quite a bit about what you just wrote about, so the two of you would definitely have a lot in common re philosophy! To explain our reasoning a bit... when we were testing, we tried out the traditional way and also the way we made here. The traditional variety is really good, is slightly tastier, but also has a very obvious mungbean flavor. For us, with this video, we asked ourselves "what would someone that wants to make Jianbing be looking for?" We felt it'd probably be someone that maybe studied abroad in China or something, and devoured some street Jianbings outside their college campus. They use the combo of mungbean flour/AP flour/either millet or cornmeal... so that's what we decided to go for, thus, 'street food style' :)
