SCALLION PANCAKES
Wilson Tang owns Nom Wah Tea Parlor, the longest-running dim sum restaurant in New York City's Chinatown, and he recently released The Nom Wah Cookbook, which includes recipes for perennial favorites like scallion pancakes. "They're a classic," he says. "That flaky texture makes them a light appetizer," he says.

Steps:
- Make the dipping sauce: Combine the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil in a small bowl and whisk until the sugar dissolves; set aside.
- Make the scallion pancakes: Put the flour in a large bowl, then add the boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough forms a ball.
- Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, elastic and no longer sticky, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer the dough to a large bowl, cover and let rest 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200˚ F. Divide the dough into 8 pieces, then roll each into a thin 8-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Brush each circle of dough with 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil and sprinkle with 1 heaping tablespoon scallions; season with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Roll up each circle of dough into a cigar; then, working from one side, roll each into a coil, tucking the ends underneath. Lightly flour the surface again and roll each coil to a 7-inch pancake (1/8 inch thick).
- Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pancake and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining pancakes, adding 1 more tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet each time and reducing the heat to medium if the pancakes are browning too quickly. Slice the pancakes into wedges. Serve with the dipping sauce.
SCALLION PANCAKES WITH MAPLE SYRUP SLAW
Steps:
- For the maple syrup slaw: Mix together the vinegar, maple syrup, soy sauce and ginger in a large bowl. Add the carrots and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight, while you prepare the pancakes.
- For the scallion pancakes: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt and baking powder. Stir in 1 cup water to form a dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary, until the dough is smooth and slightly sticky. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it sit for 20 minutes.
- For the filling: Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and keep them covered when you're not working with them. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, roll out a 7- to 8-inch circle. Brush evenly with a thin layer of toasted sesame oil and top with a few turns of black pepper, one-quarter of the scallions and a good pinch of red pepper. Roll it up like a jelly roll and then roll the jelly roll into a spiral snail shape. Roll that out into a 7- to 8-inch circle. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Heat 1/8 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium high until shimmering. Fry the pancakes on both sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
- For serving: Cut the pancakes into 4 wedges. Top with the carrot slaw, toasted sesame seeds and additional scallions.
CHINESE SCALLION PANCAKES
Scallion pancakes are a popular dish in China, and available from restaurants and street vendors. There are many different regional variations. My version is Shanghai-style and is my grandmother's recipe. These can be frozen after step 3, and thawed and finished cooking when ready to eat.

Steps:
- Mix flour and 1 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl; pour in boiling water and quickly mix together until water is absorbed. Work cold water, about 1 tablespoon at a time, into flour mixture just until dough forms. Knead dough for 10 minutes. Cover bowl with a damp cloth and let dough rest for 40 minutes.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface; divide into 4 equal pieces.
- Roll 1 piece of dough into a large thin round; brush the top with vegetable oil and sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 the green onions. Pick up 1 end of the round and roll dough around green onions into a long scroll-shape. Take 1 scroll end and roll dough into a disk. Repeat with remaining dough, letting each disk rest for 10 minutes.
- Heat about 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Place 1 disk on a floured surface and roll into a 1/2-inch thick round; cook in the hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining disks.

CHEF JOHN'S CHINESE SCALLION PANCAKES
These fun-to-make flatbreads are a common fixture on menus in China, and while they all feature the same few ingredients, they come in a variety of thicknesses. The thinner you make these, the crispier they'll be, but you won't get that nice, layered, oniony inside. On the other hand, if you make them too thick, they can be a little doughy inside, so I try to shoot for something in between.

Steps:
- Combine bread flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle and pour in hot water. Mix together with a wooden spoon to form a shaggy dough.
- Transfer dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead dough until sticky but relatively smooth and elastic, dusting with a minimal amount of flour if needed. Wrap in plastic wrap and let dough rest for 2 hours.
- Mix vegetable oil, sesame oil, and flour together in a skillet over medium heat until starting to bubble, about 3 minutes. Cook for 1 minute more. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Unwrap dough and cut in half. Roll out into a tube and press down with your fingers. Use a rolling pin to flatten dough into a rectangular shape about 1/8-inch thick, flipping over and dusting lightly with flour halfway through.
- Paint surface of the dough with the oil mixture until just covered, leaving 1 inch of space on the edges. Sprinkle scallions on top. Roll dough up tightly to seal in the scallions, starting with the long side. Pull the opposite edge over the top once you have reached it.
- Coil 1 end of the dough inward toward the middle; wrap the opposite end around the coil to finish, tucking the tip under the bottom. Dust the coil with flour and roll dough out into a pancake about 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with remaining dough, oil, and green onions to make the second pancake.
- Heat vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add 1 pancake; lower heat to medium. Cook until crispy and browned, about 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the other pancake. Cut into wedges.

QUICK SCALLION PANCAKES
These are simpler than traditional scallion pancakes, which are made from a breadlike dough, and they taste more like scallions, because the "liquid" is scallion puree. The flavor is great, the preparation time is cut to about twenty minutes, and the texture is that of a vegetable fritter.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil while you trim the scallions. Roughly chop about three-quarters of them and mince the remainder.
- Add the larger portion of scallions to the water and cook for about 5 minutes, or until tender. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Puree the cooked scallions in a blender, adding just enough of the cooking liquid to allow the machine to do its work.
- Mix the puree with the egg and soy sauce, then gently stir in the flour until blended; add pepper and the reserved minced scallions. Film a nonstick or well-seasoned skillet with oil and turn the heat to medium-high. Drop the batter by the tablespoon or 1/4 cup and cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. If necessary, the pancakes can be kept warm in a 200°F oven for about 30 minutes.
- The same method can be used to make pancakes with many members of the onion family, especially shallots and spring onions (which look like scallions on steroids). Or add:
- About 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- About 2 tablespoons roughly chopped peanuts
- About 1/4 cup minced chives, added along with the uncooked scallions
- A tablespoon or so minced peeled fresh ginger

(I used an immersion blender, because I was too lazy to drag out the big blender. Worked just fine.).
- Mix the puree with the egg and soy sauce, then gently stir in the flour until blended; add pepper and the reserved minced scallions. Film a non-stick skillet with oil and turn the heat to medium high.
- Drop the batter by the tablespoon or 1/4 cup, and cook the pancakes about 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. If necessary, pancakes can be held in a 200 degree oven for about 30 minutes.
- I serve with just simple soy sauce as a dip.

FAST SCALLION PANCAKES
This isn't the dense scallion pancake you see served in Chinese restaurants, which is made with what amounts to bread dough. But this recipe is inspired by that pancake. Made with a simplified, scallion-laden batter, it is a fork-tender pancake reminiscent of a vegetable fritter. The flavor is great, and the preparation time is about 20 minutes, an improvement on the hours you'd need to let typical scallion pancake dough rise. They are good not only as a side dish, but also as a platform for stews and juicy roasts - place a couple on a plate and spoon the stew on top. And although I still associate them with Asian-flavor dishes, omitting the optional soy sauce makes them a perfect accompaniment to braised foods that use European seasonings. (If you omit the soy sauce, also feel free to use any vegetable oil, or even good olive oil.) The same formula can be used to make pancakes with other members of the onion family, especially shallots and spring onions.

- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, water, sesame oil and salt using a whisk until smooth. Set aside.
- In the meantime, wash and finely chop the scallions, discarding the roots and the tips of the green tops. Using your fingers, quickly break apart the chopped scallions to separate out the layers. Mix into the batter.
- Heat about 2 teaspoons of oil in large frying pan (I use one that is 10-inch / 25-cm) on medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, swirl the oil around so it coats the pan. Quickly ladle on the batter in the shape of a ring, then immediately use a spatula to spread the batter to fill the ring, and to spread the batter outward to make the pancake into a circle (I use about 3/4 cup of batter for each pancake on a 10-inch pan). The batter will cook quickly on the hot pan, so just spread it around as much as you can. Cook the pancake for about 4 minutes, periodically lifting the pancake up to check if the bottom has browned. When the scallion pancake has browned on the bottom, lift the pancake up with a spatula, quickly add a bit more oil to the pan, and flip the pancake. Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the bottom is browned. Remove from heat and set on a oil absorbing paper (or paper towel) to remove the excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter.

- Whisk 2½ cups flour and 1 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Mix in sesame oil and 1 cup boiling water with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking, until dough is smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover; let rest at room temperature 1 hour.
- Divide dough into 8 pieces. Working with one at a time, roll out on a lightly floured work surface as thin as possible (each should be approximately 10" in diameter). Brush about 2 tsp. chicken fat on dough and top with about ¼ cup scallions; season with salt. Roll dough away from you (like a jelly roll) into a thin cylinder, then, starting at 1 end, wind roll onto itself to create a coil (like a cinnamon roll). Cover and repeat with remaining dough. Let rest at room temperature 15 minutes.
- Working with 1 coil at a time, roll out on a lightly floured surface to a 5" round (keep other coils covered). Repeat with remaining dough and stack as you go, separating with parchment or lightly greased foil brushed with vegetable oil.
