Chinese Egg Wafer Rolls
Join Chef Winnie Au to learn three beloved East Asian delicacies that will elevate your culinary repertoire. First, we'll create Daan Gyun 中式蛋卷 (Chinese Egg Wafer Rolls), those delicate, crispy wonders that simply melt in your mouth. You'll learn to craft the perfect batter, cook these elegant wafers with a specialized pan, and shape them into two sophisticated forms.
Next, we'll transport our taste buds to Taiwan and dive into the sweet and flaky magic of Syut Faa Sou 雪花酥 (Taiwanese Snowflake Crisp). You'll learn to achieve the ideal marshmallow consistency, combine it with dried fruit, crunchy nuts, and crispy crackers, and roll it into delectable, bite-sized treats that have won over East Asia.
Finally, we'll make Tanghulu 糖葫蘆 (Candied Fruit Skewer), a traditional snack that has been revitalized in recent years where fresh fruit is elegantly skewered and beautifully coated in a glossy, hard candy shell. Together, we’ll perfect the technique for candying the fruit and hone the skills necessary to safely handle hot syrup.

Throughout the process, we will pause to introduce new and lesser-known ingredients that are easily found in the greater Seattle area.
