Woo made it home with some time to spare!

MAHA! I'm here! WOO!

For a little conversation while we congregate, do you usually consider eggrolls an appetizer, or a whole meal?
How do you usually eat them?

Both depending on how hungry I am. And I normally eat them plain myself, though I have this strange habit of using a fork to eat out the filling and THEN eat the wrapper.

Depends. I'll eat them dipped in soy sauce or just plain. They can be a meal or appetizer, depending on how hungry I am. I'll usually have half an eggroll with a meal.

I've never seen anyone do that before! Does much of the flavor of the filling remain with the wrapper?

I do the same thing! It's not so much the flavor I like of the filling as it is the crunchiness of the wrapper itself. I always have two rolls with an entree and I use plum sauce or duck sauce to dip them.

Aaah, interesting I often don't eat the tips of my crab rangoon, I guess you'd consider that sacrilege.

I just bite the top off and get the rest, my boyfriend thinks its crazy but it works for me. I also eat all my sides first before ever starting the main part of a dish on my plate.

Oh, no we'd make the perfect pair. I'll eat the tips, you can have the filling.

So, eggrolls are a pretty involved dish! So I'm going to get the introduction of the meeting rolling right now:
Welcome to the June meeting of Eden Cooks, everybody! After last month's meeting on Chinese steamed fish, lots of people were clamoring for a meeting about eggrolls. I had been pretty clueless about eggrolls, but armed with a good cookbook and some cheerful friends, I learned enough to make a whole batch of eggrolls completely from scratch (even rolling the wrappers by hand!) and show them off.
Have you ever made a recipe by somebody's request and been surprised with the outcome?

I love the wrapping though. It's surprising that I'm the weight I am, I could eat the wrapping of those things all of the time.

Yes! My toffee...came out way better than I ever anticipated. I'm not much of a candy-maker so I was impressed.

Yes! Once I made lollipops for a friend's party, and I was terrified and sure they wold come out deformed or something. They turned out perfectly! Haven't made 'em since, though, because I'm terrified of boiling sugar
06/18/2012
Not particularly; I'm a rather terrible cook. I am able to cook excellent french toast, but that's about it.
