Just letting you know, there are at least two thriving Fuzhou communities in Malaysia. One at the peninsular Malaysia town called Setiawan (实兆远) and another one at Sibu (诗巫). I am from Sibu. We still make and eat Guangbing the traditional way.

The first time I tried these with sesame in Fuqing, they were the best. Ever since I couldn't find any that's close. I need to go back to the temple where I got them. Hopefully this summer.
I like his pants. My dad was always trying to get it after leaving Fujian, but when he went back he said they didn't taste like how he remembered. His sisters from back home said that's how it always taste like. He used to slice it in half and make seaweed sandwich with it.
Fun fact when you move permanently and start eating different food. Your Palate start to change. That's why thing can taste different than how you remember it.
This bagel is nice to have braised pork in between like a pork burger or go with pork thick soup. This bagel can only be found in the city of Fujing City in Fujian Province. Eaten as a snack anytime of the day. Not recommended for old people without teeth as it is very hard but dip in soup before eaten is alright. Has a very fragrant flour taste.
It's totally different from Western Bagel. Western Bagel is like a bread where as Guangbing is really hard on the outside. I've never tried it with cheese but I guess you can. It's up to each preference.
this was common in the Lan Nang area of Fujian in the 16th century and made its way to Poland in the 17th century. same time as the perogi. the Lan Nang were the traders and seafarers of ancient China.
Considering Sitiawan’s Chinese population is majority of the FuZhou descent, and this video features from the Fujian province (I believe specifically in the Fuzhou city) as well, it’s of course relatable.
Specifically its originated from Fuzhou, capital of Fujian..Fuzhou or Hokchiu people are found in several places all over South East Asia and where they are in significant numbers you can find these. But these looks amazingly good..
This can be found commonly in the town of Sitiawan in Malaysia too. To think that the Malaysian Chinese who have settled here for more than 100 years still makes Guang bing this is quite pleasing
I’m from Hong Kong. These bagels are nice, slightly sweet, but I much much prefer a western bagel, these Chinese bagels are really dense. My classmates before in school sometimes use them as stones to throw at people
It looks like a bagel but it's not. Boiling dough first then baking results in a different texture. A bagel is a bagel. Guanbing is guanbing. No comparison.
I've had both. Guanbing is like half way between pretzel and bagel closer to the pretzel side. The how it works part are very similar though: a bread with a ring for string together and lye to make it taste and smell better. The wood fired brick oven wall makes it taste a lot crispier.
It does not translate as :shinny bread". The real translation is "official bread". The soldiers stringed the guangbing around their necks (carrying their own ration so the army can move fast} and matched to fight the Japanese pirates raiding the coastal areas of Fujian Province.
@amannisa oigur WTF are u talking about? Every Chinese from USA, Taiwan or hongkong and China know what bread is. Even the non-baked but steamed BAO is a form of bread.
@amannisa oigur Genghis Khan and the Mongolians invaded China during the Song dynasty and the Yuan dynasty ruled China for about 90 years until the Ming dynasty took over. Mongolian food became one of the regional Chinese food, akin to all other regional Chinese food, which probably originated as the food of the various tribes in the different regions. Yuan dynasty is an integral part of Chinese history, hence also its food. There are more Chinese people of Mongolian heritage in China than non-Chinese Mongolians outside of China.
@amannisa oigur History taught us that China had "baked bread" for at least 750 years, since 1271AD. Other minority ethnic tribes might also have baked bread before that, who knows. The CCP's intervention is politics, not history.
Shinning biscuit is a lame translation. As the guy himself mentioned the name is tributed to General Qi Ji Guang, the general's biscuit is more like it
Instead of using a 2-step cooking process, Guangbing uses the alkali water to speed up the cooking for a similar baking good as the bagel. With less moisture, it must be tough, so it can said to be bagel-like, not a bagel.
Grew up eating this in sibu, only a few traditional makers left sadly. We used to freeze them and bring em to sg or aus for relatives. Tho ours don't look like this tho, ours always have sesame seeds, the plain ones are usually soft one filled with butter sugar mixture.
So basically, Imperial China did not invent bagels. These are just bagel-shaped, Chinese breads. Actual bagels have to be boiled , then baked(its chemistry).
@amannisa oigur China is big and diverse. That's why Chongqing hot pot is not a traditional Shanghai dish. If you watched the vid, you'll learn that Qi Jiguang invented it in Fujian in 1563, more than 400 years ago. And Chinese refers to all the ethnicities e.g. Han, Uyghur, Tibetan, Mongol, Manchu (5 Colored Flag of the ROC! 🇹🇼) not just Han. Tho I certainly do wish that CCP regime treated the other ethnicities much better along with the Han
It's sad but some crafts are meant to die off. Machines and automation should rightfully take his place, especially if the economics of this craft is not sustainable.
This recipe almost got forgotten during the cultural revolution. Modern chinese civilization is only 70 years old. Everything almost got erased. Because of Mao.
Eewwee....I only saw his thumb nails which can gv some protection....come in handy when peeling or scraping, of coz, must keep clean. Even my ex domestic helper also insists keeping her thumb nails, to peel prawns.....Slowly, I get used to it, cannot be too fussy...haha

It is awesome and amazing that the son wants to carry on the tradition!

I love the dad's colorful pants 😆
I like his opening promotion at the start. Feels like a Kung Fu master's self-proclamation in the old wuxia movies.
So can we say the best is sometimes lonely ? Lol
Looks soo good.. this is how all food could and should be made fresh daily!
Bagels are boiled then baked. I have not heard of bagels that were only boiled.
i need this guy's confidence
In tears, my home town food, one of my favorite food!
But my hometown version has white sesame on one side
I love shiny biscuit from my dad’s village. It’s different from the one in the video but it is what I grow up with.
Damn, this video was recorded 400 years ago
The baker has such precision - wow. Cool topic
May I know the exact location of this shop please?
We have this in Sibu City, Sarawak, Malaysia.
exactlyyy...it kompia right. Gosh i miss buying this at the old high street. A bit salty, crispy on the outside, soft but abit chewy.
The grandpa sure knows how to boost 😂
Salute to him 👏

What's it like compared to a western bagel? Could you eat cream cheese with a guangbing?
It's totally different from Western Bagel. Western Bagel is like a bread where as Guangbing is really hard on the outside. I've never tried it with cheese but I guess you can. It's up to each preference.
i would be happy to try one of these
We called it Kompia or kompyang in East Malaysia.
@amannisa oigur Are you staying inside a cave?
no need to argue with this stupid guy, oigur. he is copying and pasting the same comment everywhere.
probably gets paid from some sort of propaganda.
Same here in Indonesia
kompia is the fujian dialect. they have the same meaning.
中文是一样的，叫光饼
i hope they're able to keep on making guangbing :( someone run them their check!

Meanwhile a bagel from starbuck can sell for $10 RMB
RMB is ￥， $ is dollars.

Wow bagel looks crispy good👍
Ha I know there is 1 in Malaysia and I have first eaten It is in the small town Sitawan and they are busy.
Considering Sitiawan’s Chinese population is majority of the FuZhou descent, and this video features from the Fujian province (I believe specifically in the Fuzhou city) as well, it’s of course relatable.
in my hometown Sibu Sarawak, its is very popular. We call it Kompia. Except that on top of it, the seller put sesame.
好棒啊，喜欢这位老爷爷。从来没吃过光饼。为什么不引进机器呢？
its sad to hear that they barely can afford food when the bussiness are bad. i hope they are fine during this pandemic

I really miss Guangbing!
i loveeeee this!!! Don't worry, malaysia still have many guanping makers.
Those Guangbings look delicious!!
Dang, the gluten in that dough must be pretty developed. listen to that snap as he separates the dough pieces.
*casually sticks hand in oven and gets burned just to put the dough in*
Malaysia also have this Bagel near northwest. Called the same name Kuang Ping
It is sold in Sitiawan, Perak and Sibu, Sarawak. It is known by its Minnan name, Kompyang.
His attitude is fierce..wonder how his bagels stacks up against the best of New York’s? 😃
I’d love to try these 😋
I’m from Hong Kong. These bagels are nice, slightly sweet, but I much much prefer a western bagel, these Chinese bagels are really dense. My classmates before in school sometimes use them as stones to throw at people
😍dense and crispy
this is from my hometown :)
How can I support his business if I don't live there?
Buy a bunch if you ever visit, that's my plan lol
It looks like a bagel but it's not. Boiling dough first then baking results in a different texture. A bagel is a bagel. Guanbing is guanbing. No comparison.
I agree. I think they'd taste pretty different. Since the guangbing has lye in it, it might taste more like a bretzel.
I've had both. Guanbing is like half way between pretzel and bagel closer to the pretzel side. The how it works part are very similar though: a bread with a ring for string together and lye to make it taste and smell better. The wood fired brick oven wall makes it taste a lot crispier.
i love his pants
Maybe he should compete with Sushki makers, see which one is better for a military campaign, which lasts longest, more nutritious and other stuff.
guang bing in Malaysia still standing, 1 ringgit for 3 to 4 pcs. but i thought it's fu zhou food, not fu jian.
It does not translate as :shinny bread". The real translation is "official bread". The soldiers stringed the guangbing around their necks (carrying their own ration so the army can move fast} and matched to fight the Japanese pirates raiding the coastal areas of Fujian Province.
no, its definitely shiny. official is guan. shiny is guang. different words but they are similar sounding

The word guang is more likely known by today’s generation as shiny since it’s the same word and the bread does have a shiny surface.
@@anhw3303 光 is more like light, I was thinking light biscuit? But it sounds weird.
Guangbing are Guangbing. Bagels are Bagels. They look similar but are very different. Guangbing do look tasty at least.
actually they taste very similar.
It taste like a bagel with pretzel aroma, some bagel shop dip their bagel in lye water before cooking and it taste similar.
