Some of the more famous rice rolls include Xiguan rice rolls from Guangzhou, Hakka rice rolls from Meizhou, Chaoshan rice rolls from Chaozhou, Hekou rice rolls from Yunfu, etc.

Although they are both called rice rolls and look similar, you can feel the difference when you eat them.

These delicious rice rolls have their own characteristics in terms of ingredients and production methods, which is why the taste and texture are different.

Although it is said that it is difficult to agree with others, as long as the taste of a food is rich enough, you don’t have to worry too much about this. Rice rolls are a typical example of this.

Even if it is not divided geographically, Guangdong's rice rolls can be divided into two major categories.

One of them is called Brass Rice Roll, and the other is called Drawer Rice Roll.

The Guangzhou Xiguan rice rolls we mentioned before are a typical Bra rice rolls, which are made by steaming rice milk on cloth.

The focus of this kind of rice roll is the taste of the fillings inside, not the taste of the outer shell and sauce.

Although the fillings inside are more variable, the outer shell of rice rolls is generally made of rice flour mixed with cornstarch, corn starch and corn starch.

The name of the drawer-type rice roll comes from the shape of the steamer, which is wooden and drawer-shaped.

Compared with braised rice rolls, this kind of rice rolls is easier to make, so some small shops on the streets often sell this kind of drawer-style rice rolls.

Contrary to the Brass Rice Roll, this drawer-style roll is made of pure rice milk. Tasting the roll wrapper and sauce is the most important thing, and the fillings are not so important.

If distinguished by taste, it can be divided into two types: salty and sweet.

This distinction is judged by the taste of the filling.

If you choose a variety of candied foods for the filling, it will naturally taste sweet and delicious, and with the addition of fragrant fried sesame seeds, it will be even more tempting.

The fillings of salty rice rolls include various kinds of meats, paired with some refreshing vegetables and fragrant sauces, and the taste is really intoxicating.

No matter what kind of rice rolls it is, it has a tender and smooth outer shell, coupled with the delicious fillings wrapped inside, which makes everyone like this food even more.

Perhaps because there are so many types, there are various theories about the origin of rice rolls.

One of them is about the Hakka people who moved from the north to the south. They wanted to eat spring rolls from their hometown, but the climate was not suitable for growing wheat, so they used rice noodles instead. After a long period of improvement, this delicacy was finally born.
