Scallion Pancake Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, sift flour. Slowly add water in a steady stream while mixing with a wooden spoon. Keep adding water until a ball is formed. With the same procedure, one can use a food processor with a metal blade. Let ball of dough relax for about 30 minutes and cover with damp cloth.
• On a floured surface, roll out dough into a thin rectangle. Brush on oil mixture, cover with scallion and season with salt and pepper. Carefully roll dough like a sponge cake. Cut into 4 pieces. Take one piece and twist 3 times. Make a spiral out of this and roll again and flatten to achieve a 5 to 6 inch pancake. In a hot non-stick pan, coat with canola oil and pan sear both sides until golden brown. Cut into wedges and serve immediately with dipping sauce.
• Combine all ingredients.

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Combine all the dipping sauce ingredients in a bowl and let it sit while you make the pancakes. Remove the ginger and cilantro before serving.
• For the pancakes: Put the egg, water, sesame oil, and salt into a blender and blend well. Add the flour and blend until smooth, it should be the consistency of heavy cream. Stir in the cilantro, scallion, and sesame seeds. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat; add 1 teaspoon peanut oil and spread it around the pan with a paper towel. Pour in half the batter, swirling and tipping the pan to get one thin layer over the bottom of the pan. Cook until set, about 2 minutes. Flip the pancake with a spatula and cook on the other side for about 1 minute. Place the scallion pancake on a platter and make another pancake with the remaining batter. Cut the pancakes into wedges or roll them up and cut them into pieces. Serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• For the kimchee beef mix: Add 2 tablespoons oil to a 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the ground beef, sprinkle with salt and pepper and begin to brown and break up the meat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until the beef is evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and spread on a sheet tray to slightly cool.
• In the same hot pan, coat with another 1 tablespoon oil and sear the kimchee until it's crispy. Add the gochujang and stir until evenly combined. Remove from the heat and add to another sheet tray to cool. Meanwhile, as everything is cooling, make the dough mix.
• For the scallion pancake dough mix: To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment, add the flour and 2/3 of the boiling water. Turn the mixer on to stir and keep adding water until well mixed, a ball is formed and the dough is not too hot to handle. This will take 3 to 5 minutes. You may need to sprinkle a little flour if it gets too wet.
• On a floured surface, transfer and knead the dough until it becomes a smooth elastic ball, 5 to 8 minutes. Place back in the bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rest for 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
• For the dipping sauce: Add the kimchee juice, kimchee, soy sauce, jalapeno and scallions to a bowl and stir to combine. Add to a serving dish and set aside.
• For the pancake assembly: On a floured surface, roll out dough into a log. Cut the log into four pieces. Roll one piece into an 1/8-inch-thick circle/oval shape.
• Combine the sesame oil and grapeseed oil in a small bowl. Brush the oil over the pancake and sprinkle liberally with salt. Sprinkle a quarter each of the beef mixture, kimchi and scallions all over the dough. Make sure to press it down so it sticks into the dough. Starting with the long side nearest you, roll the dough, jelly-roll fashion, to make a tight log. Twist each end of the log in opposite direction 4 or 5 times (this will make additional pancake layers), then wrap the log around itself to make a coil, tucking the outside end beneath the coil. With a rolling pin, flatten the coil to 1/3-inch thick, dusting with flour as needed so it doesn't stick to your work surface. Roll out to a pancake. Repeat to make 4 pancakes.
• Heat a wok or 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add grapeseed oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the pancakes, one at a time, and cook until brown and crispy on both sides, turning once, moving and spinning the pancake for even cooking, 3 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and delicious.
• Sprinkle lightly with salt and cut the pancakes into wedges. Serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, rice vinegar, water, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Serve with Scallion Pancakes.

Steps:

• FOR THE DIPPING SAUCE: Whisk all ingredients together in small bowl; set aside.
• FOR THE PANCAKES: Using wooden spoon, mix 1 1/2 cups flour and boiling water in bowl to form rough dough. When cool enough to handle, transfer dough to lightly floured counter and knead until tacky (but not sticky) ball forms, about 4 minutes (dough will not be perfectly smooth). Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
• While dough is resting, stir together 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, sesame oil and remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Set aside.
• Place 10-inch cast-iron skillet over low heat to preheat. Divide dough in half. Cover 1 half of dough with plastic wrap and set aside. Roll remaining dough into 12-inch round on lightly floured counter. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil-flour mixture and use pastry brush to spread evenly over entire surface. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and half of scallions. Roll dough into cylinder. Coil cylinder into spiral, tuck end underneath and flatten spiral with your palm. Cover with plastic and repeat with remaining dough, oil-flour mixture, salt and scallions.
• Roll first spiral into 9-inch round. Cut 1/2-inch slit in center of pancake. Cover with plastic. Roll and cut slit in second pancake. Place 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in skillet and increase heat to medium-low. Place 1 pancake in skillet (oil should sizzle). Cover and cook, shaking skillet occasionally, until pancake is slightly puffy and golden brown on underside, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. (If underside is not browned after 1 minute, turn heat up slightly. If it is browning too quickly, turn heat down slightly.) Drizzle 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over pancake. Use pastry brush to distribute over entire surface. Carefully flip pancake. Cover and cook, shaking skillet occasionally, until second side is golden brown, 1 to 1½ minutes. Uncover skillet and continue to cook until bottom is deep golden brown and crispy, 30 to 60 seconds longer. Flip and cook until deep golden brown and crispy, 30 to 60 seconds. Transfer to wire rack. Repeat with remaining 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and remaining pancake. Cut each pancake into 8 wedges and serve, passing dipping sauce separately.
• TO MAKE AHEAD: Stack uncooked pancakes between layers of parchment paper, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours or freeze for up to 1 month. If frozen, thaw pancakes in single layer for 15 minutes before cooking.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients, and serve.
