      It was lovely, although I must say, that midway through, I did think that you must ALWAYS cook on high heat on a wok, that's the basic for ANY kind of wok dish, which stuns the protein and gives it the elusive wok hei.. Both dishes looked great though, and yeah wok cooking is all about hands and confidence, we occasional cooks (counting me in too)stand exposed..

      Videos are awesome and it's great having her to share her lifetime of cooking with you. I wonder how chicken would taste with the same bean paste seasoning. I've used some cooking before but didn't really know how to use it.

    Trevor - I absolutely love the new series. Auntie is awesome and you “ROCK THE WOK”. I will wait for the next video I just bought a brand new wok and I will be trying to replicate what you are doing. You have turned into my cooking instructor. I’m off to the store to buy Pork Belly!!!!!

  • @danleighton
    @danleighton 26 днів тому +6

    Very enjoyable content Trevor. I think the contrast of watching your, forgive me, less experienced deliberation, versus Aunty’s confident speed is fascinating. Her dishes seem to be less complex with fewer seasonings compared to yours. But…she makes up for it with the confidence to cook on the fiercest heat and deliver on that wok hei. She is a wonderful character. I think you struck lucky there! I am really enjoying this series. I agree you need a tiiiny bit more light inside. But not too much! Overall, excellent. And a real treat to see a UA-camr being brave enough to move away from their same old, same old format. So pleased to see you recapturing your mojo :-)

    I love this new series. I love we get to see you at the market to pick out all the ingredients. I now know what broad bean paste is and to look out for it in my local Chinese grocer. And I also love seeing how Auntie doesn't make you want to "lose face" by saying yours is better. That's very typical of the culture and you seem to understand that very well. I love wokhei and I hope you can achieve that with the gas wok.

    Thank you so much Trevor for the Video. This is COMPLETELY Authentic. The doubanjiang from Pixian, near Chengdu (陴縣豆辯醬) is an absolute must. It tastes very different from the ordinary doubanjiang found in popular supermarkets. So look for this if you're serious!

    Wow Trevor really loving these new style videos! (I loved your old style too but great to see you back!).
    So is the "Aunty" Lady teaching/ mentoring you?
    Garlic chives are just garlic that is picked early in spring before it creates it's own bulb of cloves. If you just want garlic chives just bulb a whole bulb. If you want stronger normal garlic just separate leaving the paper skin on the cloves. For hard neck (cooler climates that is stronger in flavour and has a scape) plant in late autumn. For soft neck (more mild for warmer climates), you may need to store in the fridge for at least 6 weeks before planting, either in lat autumn or spring, depending on you climate.
    I am British born Londoner and love making twice cooked pork belly. Our pork belly strips in the shop are about an 1 thick/2.5cm, trimmed and are about 6inches/15 cms long. I like to cut them into 1 inch pieces. I do a long simmer of homemade chicken stock, garlic, ginger and 5 spice. I save the broth for noodle/ ramen soups with sweetcorn.
    Interesting to see those ingredients. Not sure if we can get hold of them here but i do you dark soy sauce as a substitution. Not sure if we have MSG still here and have never tasted it on it's own so don't know what flavour profile it has.
    You need to leave to pork or any meat to rest to relax the fibres so it retains the moisture content and so it isn't so tough/rubbery.
    If you score the top skin layer of pork, belly, bacon, it doesn't curl so much and it can crisp up nicer too from the fat layer than renders off more.
    You will be a pro once you have mastered the old kitchen. It's like learning any new kitchen cooker stove oven really. You can do this Trevor!
    The style i do is more dark and sticky with dark soy, brown sugar and spices, no msg and then toasted sesame seeds. I like to pick my veg, etc from the garden when the meat is resting. I also like to get the egg fried rice started for hubby to take over. I like to watch different styles of fried rice and so glad i am not off on how you guys make it!
    I might try this different style with what we can get hold of. I usually use rice rice vinegar but i guess a mix of red wine vinegar would help. Is it fermented broad bean paste rather than fermented soy bean?
    Thanks Trevor, Ting and family! Best wishes and take care!
