Chinese Crepes, also known as Jianbing, are a popular street food in China that are now gaining popularity around the world. Here are some tips to help you make delicious Chinese Crepes:
1. Batter: Prepare a thin, smooth batter using equal parts of all-purpose flour and water. Add a pinch of salt for flavor.
2. Spreads: Traditional Jianbing uses hoisin sauce and sweet bean sauce as spreads. You can also add chili sauce or peanut butter for an extra kick.
3. The Filling: Layer your crepe with various ingredients like spring onions, cilantro, soybean sprouts, pickled vegetables, and optionally add protein such as sliced ham, shredded chicken, or tofu for a vegetarian option.
4. The Crunch: A crucial element of Jianbing is adding crunch. Sprinkle crispy fried wonton strips or crushed cracker crumbs on top.
5. The Fold: Once the crepe is cooked, fold it in half and then fold it again, creating a small pocket.
6. Toppings: Add a drizzle of soy sauce, sesame oil, or chili oil on top for additional flavor.
