Scallion Pancake Assembly: Tasting & Live Podcast 葱油饼宇宙技术研讨分享大会

June 15, 2024 | Accent Sisters, New York

We're peeling back the layers—literally. Scallion pancakes aren’t just a side dish—they’re a whole universe. Thick and chewy, thin and crispy, rolled, folded, twisted… every version tells a different story from somewhere in China or the Chinese diaspora. At this event, we dug into that delicious history with pancakes made by home cooks (featuring recipes from Frankie Gaw and Hetty McKinnon) alongside offerings from 886, Shanghai Time, The Tang, and Vanessa’s Dumpling House.

After the tasting, Sarah sat down with chef Isabel Lee of Forsyth Fire Escape—home of New York City's most iconic scallion-pancake burritos—for a live interview and Q&A.

Special thanks to our partner Accent Sisters Gallery, and the amazing people who made this event possible: Chef Isabel Lee, Hector Yu, Aurora Zhaoqing Chen, Heather Kim, Alison Long, and our photographer Christina Li. 💚
