We’ve been making egg rolls for years. Nothing better than homemade. Fried in oil! We’re making them for Christmas. 😊

If I was ever invited to your house for a meal, I would eat anything you and the missus prepared. Great video

You are so right air fryer brings item to restaurant style. Great idea.

It’s so refreshing to hear someone say “I love vinegar!” Usually when I say that people just give me this blank stare. But I can’t hide it anymore, I need to let our love be free: I LOVE VINEGAR!!!!

like when you live in the south and hate sweet tea I don't actually hate it but its not even in my top 20 drinks its just sugar

[@lancerevell5979]

I'm a Southerner, and greatly dislike vinegar.... except I really love "Vinegar&Salt" potatochips! Bought a bag by mistake once from a machine, couldn't admit to my friends I hated them and pushed through the bag. I developed a liking for them! 😅 And, I love sweet tea. A certain late Aunt (Dad's younger sister) made the BEST sweet tea. 😊

[@dadoctah]

I hope you're planning to continue testing frozen egg rolls from a variety of brands. Your old friends at what is now Dollar and a Quarter Tree sells my favorites, that come in beef, pork, chicken, shrimp, lobster and veggie flavors. One truly huge egg roll per package, and there is a packet of sweet and sour sauce inside the wrapper, though if you're really in an egg roll kind of mood you probably have bottles of appropriate sauces already on hand. Another place that's kind of a surprise is Jack in the Box. They have egg rolls mainly as a side to go with their teriyaki chicken bowl in place of fries, but you can also order them independently. Not quite as big as their dollar store counterparts (and only one variety), they're still substantial in size with plenty of meat as the second ingredient (cabbage will invariably be the #1 entry on the list of ingredients). And you can have fun with the pricing math too; a pack of three actually costs less than buying two individual ones.

[@bmcc4379]

I like the 4pk from aldi's. Really good in the air fryer. No longer come with sauce, but for $3 can't complain

[@clumaster]

i believe the "Chicken Like Flavor" is that they used powdered chicken broth as part of the seasoning to the mixture, which is a common practice in a lot of Asian dishes.

[@madgodzilla12465]

I really like the Pagoda pork egg rolls although they have really gone up in price. It's like $9 for a pack of 8 which I guess isn't relatively bad but they used to about $6

[@jacksmith-vs4ct]

seeing as how I can still get an eggroll for a dollar at my local Chinese place its not great but its not a bad price for a box

[@lorensims4846]

The Kahiki was a famous iconic Polynesian-style "Tiki" restaurant for several decades here in Columbus. We often went there for special occasions. The atmosphere alone was much of the attraction, but their food was considered some of the best in town. Unfortunately, they closed almost twenty years ago, but they kept selling their famous egg rolls, which many people regularly ordered for carry-out. Now they're just selling frozen food. I tried their egg rolls just out of sentimentality a few years ago and found them to be the very best frozen egg rolls I had ever had. Of course, they were even better when you could get them fresh, served in that giant longhouse, surrounded by parrots and palm trees, with the occasional thunderstorm presented on the other side of a window by your table.

[@HowieCarson]

I loved that place. I remember the crazy cups the drinks would come in

[@HayTatsuko]

I've had the veggie version of these Rockin' Rolls and loved them. Edamame is a thing. I rarely seek it out on its own, but I don't mind it if it's part of another dish.

[@bethenecampbell6463]

Edamame makes sense as a protein source for the vegetarian version. But on their own I don't love them. Before I had an air fryer I used to rumple up some foil and bake them in the oven on top of the foil. Always came out crispy.

[@AKayfabe]

I seek it out. I even eat it plain

[@josepha3805]

[@rhonda90402]

I feel the same way about edamame. Everything that used to have green garden peas seems to have edamame again these days. The texture is just weird unless you are eating them as a snack all by themselves out of the pod.

[@duckpwnd]

Thank you for bringing these delicious frozen eggrolls to the attention of we, the people.

[@Mycosyco1]

Agreed! Around here the egg rolls have shrunk! Frozen are better than a lot of places!

[@cyberbeer65]

Where I'm from (Detroit) we use bean sprouts in our egg rolls, instead of cabbage, which is far superior than cabbage.

I wish Kahiki could have kept the restaurant open. One of my favorites as a kid. We would always sit by the fake forest with the live tropical birds.

[@Linda7647]

I loved the Kahiki. I miss it terribly. Did you ever go to their Sunday brunch/lunch buffet? It was amazing. They had a whole suckling pig there, plus several different dishes to choose from, including a HUGE bowl of peel & eat shrimp. And from eating dinners there, I still have a few of the skull and tiki glasses that their drinks came in. As for the frozen egg rolls? They suck. They don't even come close to egg rolls served in Chinese restaurants, especially the egg rolls from Ding Ho or China/Golden Phoenix. People come from out of town to buy those egg rolls by the sack.

[@tonyx3768]

Just went for lunch with my grandparents, 80’s through early 90’s. Was probably barely a teenager the last time I was there. Always took the longest route possible through all the rooms on the way back from the bathroom, with extra time in that fireplace banquet room with the glowing eyes. I always liked nostalgia from the ww2 generation, and it was definitely that.

Sadly this brand is not available here in Canada. We can get exactly _one_ brand of frozen egg rolls, and they are just not very tasty. My gold standard for egg rolls is still the Chinese restaurant down the street from my Grandparents' house. Sadly, it closed almost 40 years ago. No restaurant or frozen product comes close.

[@kaidzaack2520]

Your cooking is so good, even the fire alarm is cheering you! 😜 Just kidding. My next investment will be an air fryer. I have no problems with dirt unless it is my dirt (I live alone). I was confused about the name of these things. Here we call them “Frühlingsrolle” (german) which would translate into “spring roll” (spring for the season, not a technical device). The two varieties you presented are the most common. Vegetarian and chicken. Another great review. Thanks a bunch and have a nice Sunday! 🫶

[@brenspin]

Hello. Here in the U.S. "spring rolls" have an outer wrapper that is smoother in appearance and lighter in color. I suggest doing a Google Image Search for "spring rolls" to see some photos. Also, a Google Search on the difference between "egg" and "spring" rolls stated, "Spring rolls are wrapped in thin flour wrappers or rice wrappers, while egg rolls are wrapped in a thicker, noticeably crispier wrapper that’s been dipped in egg for richness." Apparently spring rolls are traditionally Chinese and what we call egg rolls are believed to have been invented in New York City's Chinatown restaurants in the 1930's. 🙂 I think pork egg rolls might be the most common here. By the way, I have German heritage from both my mother's and father's families. 😉

[@kaidzaack2520]

@@brenspin cheers from GOG! 🫶 Well, if you order an “egg roll” here it is by no means crispy. It is rather an omelette wrapping for something. We have a huge influence of muslim culture who do not eat pork due to religious reasons. Pork is common here (even raw minced pork - “Mett”) but not a top seller for mass products so it is nearly unavailable… Beste Grüße! 💯🫶
