中国著名小吃春卷Spring rolls, the famous Chinese street food    

立春,在中国可是重要节日。中国是农耕民族,代表万物复苏,充满生机。 春卷就是中国过年时的食物。在《宋氏养生部》记载:“用春饼置馒头馅、馄饨视所宜,或猪脂肪,卷摺粘之,在多油内煎燥。”就是记载了中国古代春卷的制作。春卷制作,皮较薄,馅料可以放入肉类、蔬菜都可以,下油锅炸,炸到色泽金黄不焦糊就可以了。外脆裏熟,馅料鲜嫩多汁,十分美味。

Lichun, the beginning of Spring in China, is an important festival. This symbolises that it’s ready to farm, while China was used to be a country living on farm. Spring roll is the food for the Spring Festival. According to Song’s Health Guide, ‘Roll the  spring roll skin with steam roll, wontons, or pig fat. Deep-fry in the wok.’ This was the making process of the ancient spring roll. In the making of the spring roll, the skin needs to be thin. We can add meats or vegetables into the spring roll. Deep-fry it till it turns golden and not burnt. The surface is crispy and the central filling is juicy. It’s delicious.
