Ingredients for Asian Spring Rolls

Series Summary

Many people easily mistake spring rolls with egg rolls. They are two very different foods. The spring roll is wrapped in a thin rice sheet and usually has a mix of vegetables inside. An egg roll is wrapped in a thicker egg based wrap and has much more filling than a spring roll. Both are visually pretty similar but take one bite and you'll realize the sultry difference. Spring rolls are typically eaten at the Spring Festival in China because they are light and contain mostly vegetables.

This video clip series will walk you through every step of making spring rolls and talk about everything from choosing and cutting the vegetable to rolling the rolls and deep frying them. They are easy to make and fun to prepare. If you've never seen this process it's a great thing to witness. Be creative with your rolls. Try some new things and maybe one day you'll be on the other end of these videos!
