Reviews

We really enjoyed these egg rolls - a nice change from the more standard ingredients. I used Snow Crab and followed the recipe exactly. I was very happy with how they turned out but thought that they were a little dry for our taste. Next time I would perhaps add more bean sprouts or even some type of sauce to increase the moisture content. Thanks for posting! Made for Culinary Quest 2014
