    As a sidenote, I wanted to commend you for the cutlery set on Amazon and cleaver in the two knives all Damascus steel with wooden handles. I’ve had them since you first started advertising them and I’ve been very satisfied with it they are razor sharp and easy to keep them for me I can highly recommend them to your readers and thanks for all the recipes.

    Love the authenticity of your dishes! Wish more American Chinese restaurants would keep their dishes authentic!

    • @canaisyoung3601
      @canaisyoung3601 5 місяців тому +5

      They do in San Francisco. But I guess that depends on the East Asian population there and whether or not they want people outside of that demographic to partake in their food (the latter of which is why the Chinese food we know is more known by its Americanized/Westernized versions in the first place).

    • @ibechane
      @ibechane 5 місяців тому +3

      @@canaisyoung3601 I don't think it's about not wanting people to partake in their food as much as it is about adapting to locally available ingredients and catering to a non-Chinese palate out of necessity of business, especially historically when people were more skeptical and unfamiliar with non-western cuisine. I see Americanized/Westernized Chinese/Cantonese food as its own branch of culinary evolution, rather than just a failed approximation of tradition. I think the many chefs across the country of these restaurants deserve more respect for establishing what's essentially become a staple category of American cuisine. And while it's wonderful that people (myself included) are becoming more interested in authentic/traditional recipes, I don't think it needs to come at the expense of that.

      You have to keep in my mind to easy access to many of these ingredients was incredibly difficult until recent history. Some of the changes has to do with trying to fit tastes but access to ingredients is a huge factor. When Chinese immigrants were first moving to America it was the 1800’s and many of them did what they could with what access they had to ingredients. Often preserving the techniques but using different ingredients.

    • @pinkmonkeybird2644
      @pinkmonkeybird2644 4 місяці тому +2

      But they ARE authentic as Chinese American cuisine. I bet the moo shu made in thousands of Chinese restaurants and takeaways throughout the US follow pretty much the same recipe and taste the same. The Chinese immigrants developed a recipe based on what was available here and what they could afford to buy, which is why most moo shu contains a ton of cabbage and onions. They weren’t feeding nobility after all, they were feeding the less wealthy who wanted a quick but very substantial meal.
      I do wonder why you usually get a huge portion of moo shu but only 4 pancakes though. It just doesn’t make sense, and I always have to ask for extra pancakes, because I know my husband and I will be eating moo shu vegetables for multiple meals.

    For anyone curious, the daylily flower is from the plant Hemerocallis Fulva. These are somtimes called tiger lilies, or ditch lilies, as they grow in ditches and roadsides in many parts of the United states. They bloom with orange flowers in June and July, and and have strap like leaves.

    This is the second of your videos I have watched and I wanted to tell you how pleased I am with your presentations! I grew up in Orange County in Southern California in the seventies and eighties. The area had a deserved reputation as an Asian food wasteland--that is until the Vietnamese came to town~!😂
    It was a perfect storm of different cultures from that area coming into and into their own in this new land. America, too, has gone kicking and struggling into a new culture with its own foods, and its own way of doing things. Sheepishly, we ask for seconds and eventually, pointers on how they cooked this wonderful food.
    My father was a vet from the second world war. Buddies who came back from Europe suddenly were interested in the cuisines of those places.
    Back to your video series: I appreciate refresher courses, especially as you are presenting things. There are always things to know. We, here, recognize that some of the best things come together when you get a bunch of cooks in a store, in someone's kitchen, or here; there is always something new to know!
    Thanks again!
    谢谢你的教导

    Very informative. Your viewers might consider "topping" the dried lily buds of their hard ends where they meet the stem. Same for the mu'er.. they often have a hard bit where they attach to the tree.

    I love Asian cuisine and I really enjoy your channel. As a matter of fact, I made hot & sour soup just this week and used one of your videos as a resource. The soup was delicious.
    I look forward to trying this recipe too. But I will leave out the dried lilly. I've cooked with it and don't like it's flavor or texture. But I love black fungus, or wood ear. I use it often.
    You mentioned that some folks add Napa Cabbage. I absolutely love Napa Cabbage. Chow Mein is my favorite Asian dish because of the Napa, not because of the protein ingredient. I often add Napa to soups and broths.
    Thanks for your videos and for sharing your recipes and your heritage.

      The fuck is "Asian" cuisine?

    • @tlb2732
      @tlb2732 5 місяців тому +1

      @@tree_eats Well, I suppose you make a good point. Where I'm from, cooking and recipes from China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and all the far eastern countries of Asia are customarily referred to as Asian.
      I enjoy foods from all these areas. They have distinct differences that add to my interest and enjoyment. But they also have many similarities. For instance, most all cook with a wok primarily. They also use the same spices, herbs, and seasonings. I guess these similarities and the fact that dishes from all these countries are popular here is why we refer to them as Asian cuisine.
      I'm sure they exist in my country, but there are no Russian restaurants where I live. And technically speaking, that's Asian cuisine as well.
      I'll have to change my terminology.
