[@Berkana]

Andong, there is one other 葱油饼 rolling method that yields even more layers than your method. Roll the dough into a rectangle, and sprinkle scallions across the entire surface. Instead of having them all together in a clump of chopped scallion, have them separated. When you roll, roll from both sides of the rectangle, so that you end up with a double-snake shape. Then, coil from both ends toward each other, and stack the coils and press them down. The resulting cake will have four layers of coils, each with its own internal layers. Your current method has all the scallion concentrated in the beginning of the roll. Scattering scallion bits across the whole dough rectangle will leave scallion bits between every single layer. (I saw this method when researching various methods for making 葱油饼.) Also, another trick that lets you disperse the scallions more evenly: you know how the scallion leaves are tubes? Cut them in half and flatten them so they become ribbons, and then slice them up. The flat chopped scallions seem to disperse and press down more easily than little tube segments.

[@liliumz]

Hi! Do you have a video link to the method you’re describing? I’m not sure if I’m visualizing it correctly haha

[@Berkana]

@@liliumz Yes. It took be a bit to find it, but here it is. Link goes to the time-stamp where the rolling of the dough sheet begins. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGmqZJxjYsaorrM She didn't exactly roll the dough into a rectangle, but the idea is the same. You can see that the final scallion pancake has four layers of coiled rolled dough, for 4x the number of layers. To facilitate this much stretching and flattening of layers, a pure hot-water dough might not work. The dough might need to accommodate more stretching, so perhaps a warm water dough or a blend is needed. But I don't know this from experience, so try a few variations to see what works.

[@Berkana]

@@liliumz If this recipe is something you're into, here's my research playlist of all of the various methods I've found for making Chinese scallion flatbreads. (I have a couple other playlists for leavened flatbreads known as 大餅 and "fillament" flatbreads where the dough is prepared in a manner that produces crispy fillaments rather than layers.) kzbin.info/aero/PLE8wjvoMrDygbpcO26kvA6yaR7qkxdPVC Also these: kzbin.info/aero/PLE8wjvoMrDyi_r_zsGEikUoxpocnzQ6EF kzbin.info/aero/PLE8wjvoMrDyi3I5a8PqC5QScf0i92_5R3 kzbin.info/aero/PLE8wjvoMrDyjCf9JPbLrbtUmN5uOjPapS

[@oGSS52o]

I've been in korea during one year, and all the pankakes I've tasted were really really thin and without that much batter. Your's seems to close from our western vision we have from a pankake ; fluffy and where batter is the king. In the korean version, the main contenders must be the sauce and the scalions. More importantly, you should be able to cut and separate very easly parts of the pankake when you are eating it with chopsticks. The key here is to use less batter, but just enough to make a pankake (mixing the scallions in the batter and droping them afterward in the pan is a good way of doing it). And for the sauce, you can replace sugar with honey and add some sesame seeds and chopped white onions and garlic, it will be so much tastier. Anyway I've discovered your channel 1 week ago and I'm binge-watching your channel. I love your content, and I will definitely try the chinese version, as it seems close to my french heart. Have a great day my friend !

[@fsinghy]

(Korean here) Generally the green onion to batter ratio is pretty skewed for my taste, normally you'd see the green onion chopped into finger-length stalks and enough in there to cover the surface of the pan. Mixing them straight into the batter also helps wilt them a bit so you get better crisp :) also add the whole egg for some nice richness and bounce to the pancake!

[@paulm3952]

Thanks for the tips. Do you add the whole egg to the batter or to the pancake?

[@fsinghy]

@@paulm3952 the usual way would be one step - everything in the batter at once and make it hella thin to prevent potential sogginess - but I do think the beaten egg whites is an interesting idea as well.

[@sizaraziz9800]

Somehow my family learned a slightly simplified version of those Chinese Scallion Pancakes back in Southern Kazakhstan. Decades later in Germany my family would still make them and none of my neighbours and friends had ever seen something like that. My surprise was immense when I found out that our "family" dish apparently came from China.

[@Jolene8]

Lots of Chinese nomad's/emigress into Eastern Europe, Anatolian plate and even the Middle East over many centuries. Lot's of emigress from those regions into the Northern parts of China, one of the reasons why the Great wall was built. Lots of culture mixing and sharing during the Silk Road era and into the the early - mid 1900's, outside of any governmental structure. There are centuries of history there.

[@yassinedownpourz]

Here in North Africa we have something very similar called "Mssemen" the dough is made of mix of samolina & flour and using melted butter & oil for lamination and it served with honey or just plain or it can be stuffed with chili tomato sauce too.

[@mjb3480]

As a Chinese Korean, (I’m not sure the correct way to put it in English, basically, my ancestors were Korean and they moved to China). In Korea, 전 is a category of food I believe, there are not only 파전, there are also, for instance, 오징어전(squid pancake) 야채전(vegetable pancake) and many other kind of 전. If that’s considered, korean 전 also have a place in my heart. However, 葱油饼 win this “scallions pancake battle” for sure, that crispy scallion taste just never gets old. 😆

I've had the Chinese version before, I always wanted to know how to make them, I had NO IDEA it was so easy! Made a batch tonight for tomorrow morning, wish me luck ^_^

[@manmansikla]

the葱油餅 is pretty legit! saw someone recommend Taiwanese 蔥抓餅 in the comment, and I like it more as it is less doughy and flakier, like a roti canai, more suitable for snacking! in Hong Kong 手抓餅(same fleaky pancake without scallion) is even more popular you can choose melted cheese, corn, grilled meat...etc as a topping but the most popular one is with purple yam (紫薯手抓餅) the Korean one looks a bit too thick compare what I had in Korea (lived there for couple of years) 파전usually is like the scallion (with seafood most of the time)barely cover with a thin layer of batter each side. Also in Korean household they use a pre mix flour called "부침가루" (pancake flour) which is plain flour mixed with salt, pepper, garlic and onion power. Use Ice water to mix the batter may help to achieve the crunchiness. I saw a programme years ago chef in Japanese use ice water / cold beer mix into tempura batter for the light texture. PS: it is midnight here.,,I should be alseep but I am hungry after watching this...lol

[@ilushk]

roti canai is the shiiit. I've lived in Malaysia for 5 years, and roti canai in the morning with some daal is the best thing!

[@deeb.9250]

I remember the first time i tasted roti canai too oily, like starch soaked in oil. The korean pancake, I've seen tempura crumbs put in the batter to give it more air and more crunch

[@arthurhuang7491]

Even Chinese pancakes, 葱油饼, are made in different ways throughout China.

[@wannaberedneckprepper7030]

Common ingredient = gutter oil

[@bigtoefungusvs.friedpochun7612]

I heard some people make it with 猪油/lard

[@seoholee8536]

Here in Korea there are two popular methods to achieve crispiness. They are often done in conjunction. 1. Use ice cold water for the batter. It just needs to be very cold but a bit of thin ice forming on the surface of the water is even better. When the cold batter touches the hot surface of the pan, the inside of the pancake will take more time to cook than a lukewarm batter, consequently allowing the outside to stay longer in contact with the heat and crisp up. 2. Simply add some oil to the batter before cooking. Think of pastry doughs brushed with egg yolks or oil before baking in the oven. Same basic idea. I do like the sparkling water idea though. It would definitely aerate the batter in a manner much akin to fish and chips.

[@jarodkim5885]

Hi Andong! I really enjoy the amount of effort that you put into all of your videos. I have a few tips for your next jeon. Generally speaking, Korean pancakes are more about the fillings than the batter itself. When making a traditional jeon I usually start by tossing the assorted fillings in just enough batter to make a thin glaze that holds the ingredients together without making it too thick and cakey. It can be fried over medium heat and periodically wiggled around and tossed until the wisps of batter on either side are golden brown and crisp. The end result should feature the fillings front and center, have a light gummy chew from the batter holding it together, and a nice lacy exterior that gets lightly crispy. Hope these tips come in handy. I cant wait to see more korean dishes from you! Cheers!

[@Teramis]

I've read some Chinese chefs and home cooks advise to saute the chopped-up *white* part of the onions in the oil that (after a couple minutes of cooking) you will then add the flour to to make the roux. This infuses the oil with onion flavor and is what gives an onion pancake a real onion-y taste. I haven't tried that refinement yet but the technique makes sense to me. Aside from that, I adore your videos! You have a great mix of explaining history and technique and origins along with just the practical how-to steps. Am eager to get in the kitchen and try several of the things you've demo'd in various videos. Especially appreciate the hot water dough explanation in this one. Thanks for all your hard work, Andong!

In China, people sometimes use a more sophisticated method to fold the dough. They score (cut but leave the two ends intact) the dough sheet parallel to the long edge of the imaginary rectangle, like fettuccine with connected ends, add scallion, fold as if the sheet wasn't scored, and, before coiling, gently twist it into a multi-helix (imagine a striped candy cane). This method creates larger surface area and thus a crispier 葱油饼. Due to scallion leakage made intentionally, it also adds a chared scallion flavor, which people like me love.
