Suzhou people really don’t make dumplings during the Chinese New Year, they make spring rolls instead!

People often ask me, should dumplings be eaten during the Winter Solstice or the Chinese New Year? I say it again: I won’t eat it any day! All the news you see in various media about people in Suzhou making dumplings during the Chinese New Year are all fake news! We Suzhou people eat spring rolls and glutinous rice balls during the New Year, which means "biting spring" and "reunion". Spring rolls, also known as spring dishes and spring cakes, are a traditional snack in Suzhou. On the first day of 2020, I specially sent out spring rolls to suit the occasion. I wish all gold fans stay young!

Spring roll skins are sold at vegetable markets. There are two kinds of fillings, sweet and salty. The sweet filling basically only has one bean paste filling, while the salty fillings come in a variety of ways. Shredded pork with chives, shepherd's purse and pork... It's up to the person to be generous and thrifty, and it's a bit like how northerners make dumplings.

According to the rules, my spring roll filling is always shepherd’s purse and pork filling. At most, I add some chopped winter bamboo shoots for freshness.

For a better taste, I will buy a pound of river shrimp, peel the shrimp and add it to the filling.

The spring rolls with shrimps taste better than just one level.

Chop the shepherd’s purse and pork stuffing, add salt, rice wine, and appropriate amount of green onion and ginger water and mix thoroughly. The shrimp cannot be chopped, add salt and knead and set aside. Whole shrimps look beautiful and taste better when added to the filling.

It is enough for a family of three to buy half a catty of spring roll wrappers at a time, and half a catty requires 20 sheets. Freshly wrapped and fried spring rolls always taste the best. As soon as it is put in the refrigerator, the color, smell and taste are gone.

Making spring rolls has always been a daughter’s job. This man is beautiful, and the spring rolls he made are also beautiful! Spring rolls should be thin and slim, and should never be chunky. Just don't be greedy for too much meat filling, otherwise it will not be cooked easily. Of course, too little is not enough as it will affect the taste, so this level must be grasped well.

Some people fry the meat filling and then wrap it. Such spring rolls only need to be lightly fried in the oil pan before they are cooked, and they will never be raw. Of course, such spring rolls will not taste good, the meat filling will not be tender enough, and there will definitely be no soup.

The spring rolls must be served with a plate of dipping sauce. It can be dipped in vinegar, ketchup, sweet noodle sauce, or Pingwang hot sauce, depending on your personal taste. Our family is used to serving it with Thai sweet and spicy sauce, which is a little spicy and a little sweet. Take a bite, the outer skin is crispy and crispy, and the meat filling is delicious and juicy.

Okay, without further ado, the spring rolls should be served while they are still hot. They will not taste good when they are cold.
