Creative Kimchi Spring Roll Wraps
During the third day of the third lunar month, which is the traditional Qingming Festival for tomb-sweeping, a seasonal food called 'Run Bing' (also known as 'Spring Pancake' or 'Spring Roll') is enjoyed. It's said that in ancient times, people observed the Cold Food Festival by eating these wraps, which is likely where the tradition started (according to online sources).
Typically, Run Bing wraps are filled with ingredients like braised pork, tofu, bean sprouts, cabbage, and peanut powder. Some of these ingredients can be hard to find, but you can easily swap in your favorite fillings and still enjoy a delicious result!
Tip:
The trickiest part of eating Run Bing wraps is that the filling tends to fall out after the first bite. To prevent this, use lightly blanched water spinach stems to tie the wrap before cutting it in half. This makes it easier to eat and keeps the filling inside. Fresh water spinach stems are crisp and break easily, but blanching them makes them more flexible and perfect for tying up your wraps!
