@@zhongxingjin846 Not everyone finds them delicious, so that's why. lol In your opinion they might be delicious, but people have different tastes, ya know? Your opinion is subjective.
as a Chinese person I feel like I am obligated to inform the viewers that literally only 2 items shown in here are considered "authentic", most of the other items are called their authentic name, but they actually presented the American version of the actual Chinese dish.
Fr, I was quite confused watching this. The mapo tofu and peking duck didnt seem like it was cooked well too, and I wouldnt expect the chicken feet to be made in that sauce. There are more things that are off like fried squid not being what I would consider as authentic chinese food in the first place. Regardless, I’ll just not name every single thing that is wrong here 😢
I feel Americanized Chinese food as been around long enough that it should be classified as a regional variety/style of authentic chinese cuisine. The style strongly extends its roots from Southern China, mainly the Guang Dong province. I feel this video isn't even the best representation of the true American style chinese food, where is the ginger beef or the general tao chicken, or the egg rolls lol. I do recognize that some of the dishes presented may not be the best representations, however I do question your claim regarding the authenticity of the food. I view it as a bit overblown and extending into cultural food purism. My take on each dish: - really simple, hard to mess this up - needs a bit of corn starch to thicken the sauce up, and maybe a bit less oil otherwise it looks ok - not a fan, but I see most dim sum places, if not all serving it up like this - its just broth, egg, starch and veggies - I do question the authenticity of this one though based on it being the most intensive of all the dishes to make, it definitely requires experience and the right equipment to do it well. Typically, in the seafood/banquet style restaurants, the duck thinly sliced taking off mostly skin, which then is served with thin crepes, rather than baos. The unused parts of the duck are then prepared into additional dishes like, duck meat & lettuce wraps, or duck soup. - i dont eat this often or at all, but remember it being saucier and spicier looking , kind of more like the mapo tofu - they look fine honestly, but serving them in the aluminum containers is a bit odd to me though, and the packet of sauce is a bit suss. throw them into a bamboo steamer boom authentic lol. - looks pretty good to me, i order this every time whenever at dimsum - i also get these every time at dimsum 🤤i do prefer the salted egg yolk custard buns over these ones though
@@montvna I don't think your first statement is fair. At the end of the day, Americanised chinese cuisine is fusion food at most. Saying that because a fusion food existed for a long time, hence it can be called an authentic Chinese dish hardly make sense. Afterall, it is not like America is in China, so it cannot be called a regional cuisine either.
The congee, chicken feet and custard buns are dim sum staples. The congee looked legit. Chicken feet likewise, but the description makes me think that the sauce might be off? Custard bun seemed fine. Kudos to whoever made it look like a pig. The fried squid is something that you might find in a HK dai pai dong. So it might be a regional quick service dish that never sees the light of day north of the border? Xiaolongbao, I don't think soup-filled is the original version, but it is one that may have been popularized by the Taiwanese Din Tai Fung chain. Should be served with some black or red vinegar though. And they should've told the first lady not to eat it whole like that. If the soup is still hot that "explosion" would not be fun. Peking duck, I'm more used to seeing a version with a crepe as opposed to bao. Probably fine in terms of giving the ladies an idea of what it is. Kind of disappointed the ladies didn't get some roast pork. Would've been good to see how they compared the crispiness and crunch of the skin to chicharrons.
Yeah, no. American Chinese food can stand as its own thing, much like Korean or Indian Chinese food, but it cannot be classed with regional Chinese styles. That'd be like calling Chicago style pizza "Italian". As a Beijinger, I'll just point out the Peking duck is very far from authentic and is in the Cantonese style. Just visually, proper Peking duck is eaten with steamed "crepes" and the meat is sliced very thin. The steamed bun shown is , at best, a very recent variation.
The new mom in the red, Alma, I like her. She seems to look at everything in a positive way. Overall, I like how everyone tried it all and looked at the bright side in everything they ate.
She's kind of boring, and too polite. I prefer honest opinions. Like, sometimes you can tell she's not feeling the food but she'll say that she likes it. Why lie?
Alma was perfection in this. I loved her respect for the foods she tried and how she effortlessly tied it to a story or memory of her own. Also, the way she told said stories was so pleasant and soothing; I would love to hear her do an audiobook or something.
OKK we need to re-do this. You need a bowl of rice on the side to go with mapo tofu. LOL no utensils for the chicken feet haha - this was great!!! all the foods i grew up eating. I love that congee as well!! you really nailed it with the authentic chinese good and not just chicken balls. So happy with this video :) well done.
I'd say it was good effort but they really miss the mark with a few dishes. As someone from Beijing, the duck dish is always served with a paper-thin steamed flour wrapper (not a bao) along with sliced spring onion and a sweet fermented flour paste sauce (just enough to coat your chopsticks, don't overdo the sauce). The bao version is probably a southern interpretation. It's not atrocious or anything but it's like taking a deep dish pizza and claiming it's the authentic New York pizza. NYers won't like that lol.
Sra Alma…love her critiques…classy, diplomatic, and always willing to try…talk about a sophisticated palette. Other ladies were overly dramatic on some of the dishes and insulting at times…give your opinions but respect the cuisine. Come on…we can all appreciate each other’s cultures.
This isn’t political correctness 101. It’s a show based on people’s preferences and tastebuds. I wanna see their real authentic reactions not some fake inauthentic reaction just to appease fake people like you.
@@Lilstewie1313 theres a difference between not enjoying something, being honest about disliking it while still remaining respectful instead of insulting it. no one is saying they should lie and pretend they like it
@@Rowan-uh5er with all due respect, I am Mexican and her observations regarding Mexican food are very similar to mine. I definitely don’t always agree with her opinions and way that she expresses her opinions, but I can definitely say that she knows what she is talking about. Oh, and go watch her pozole and chilaquiles videos. She knows how to cook.
@@jesusgamboa9899 I'm Mexican too that's why I'm saying it. I mean what Mexican hasn't had chicken feet. Alma seems more knowledgeable, like she cares more about the food as opposed to Xochitl who seems to care more about eating.
Doña Xochitl describing her experience with duck is exactly what my mother went through as a child, and to this day my mother refuses to eat duck if she can avoid it. 😆 But kudos to her for eating the Peking Duck.
I love this video and I loved that lady in red really enjoyed Chinese food. It’s amazing to be this open minded and try things that might seem strange and different to you. Culture is for sharing, this is amazing
The one Mexican auntie who spoke of always eating chicken feet (in soup?) in her childhood... wonderful!!!! :D Chinese and I approve!!! She knows what's up!
Xochitl's song about the Panda brought some memories to me ❤my momma used to sing us that song, which I think is a song they wrote for Tohui, the first panda born in Mexico.
Chicken feet is soooo good! 😭 people get creeped out, but if you get passed the way it looks, I’m sure you will like it lol. I like getting it when I am at Dim Sum!
When I was little and my parent no have enough money for food so they buy all the cheap parts of the chicken and beef liver and blood sausage. I order today liver and onion at the restaurant and a person that was with us say yuck I no like that, I no eat that even if they pay me and I say well i grow eating this no one say yuck to stuff for me are yum this is delicious for me. Excuse my poor English.
@@krono5el also when people are trying to make the most of what their money can buy, it means eating the parts of animals one may consider “ exotic”. A lot of people are disgusted or judge people who eat “exotic” living things but it is precisely because they had no choice but to turn to it in order to survive, it only became a delicacy when it became popular & hard to obtain. Though chicken feet was eaten for collagen, many have enjoyed the taste & texture ( there are boneless ones too) over time.😊
LOL nice, finally seeing Chinese foods on this channel, you've done a great job! Though I was expecting more staple foods such as Yangzhou fried rice, different types of noodles and rice vermicelli (Lanzhou beef noodles, Zhajiangmian fried soybean paste noodles, and Luosifen sour vermicelli, to name a few), and Cheongfan rice rolls.
100% Chinese cousine is so diverse since the country's so big. I'm know there are so many other meat dishes they would love. Lanzhou beef noodles is crazy good and something you won't find in other countries.
Title says Authentic Chinese food Proceeds to bring out kung pao chicken with a broccoli and not enough sauce, you know, the American Chinese food version May god have mercy on all our souls.
Only have respect for Alma, the red scarf lady. Her opinions are balanced and open to experience. The rest, I found it over dramatic and almost insulting.
I like that she credits her mother with teaching her not to waste food when they were poor growing up, and that leads to her being more open minded today. Beautiful
@pinkroses9320 then you are racist, as simple as that. I don't have those kind of exagerated reactions, I usually just say is not for me: turtles, iguana, guinea pig, monkey, bull testicles, blood in intestines, all that and more is eaten in several countries in Latin America. It is not common but we don't make a big fuzz about it but chicken feet is such a big issue when they literally eat pig feet without problem. Don't confuse personal taste with reactions rooted in racism.
The lady in red is the only one that is open minded and shows she has a wide palate. The other two ladies go in already decided they don't like pretty much everything. And one of them doesn't even try something. Kinda defeats the purpose of the video ya think?
I tend to agree with Xochitl a lot with regards to authentic Mexican food and the exaggerated sweeteness of many desserts and candy, but her reaction to the chicken feet really pissed me off.
Great video! Just love the totally different reactions. Made my evening a good one!! And I love duck--used to have it for Christmas until it starting to cost about $9.00 a pound!
I love mapo tofu with some white rice 🤤. Lulus reaction to the chicken feet made me laugh but I love chicken feet at dim sum and xiao long bao everyday of the week is another staple at my house 🤤. Peking duck is something we order all the time at a Chinese restaurant when it’s someone’s birthday
I knew a Mexican guy who worked at a well known Chinese restaurant. One of their best dishes was Hunan pork stir-fry in a spicy savory black bean sauce. That place closed down and years later I found him operating a taco truck. We both reminisced how great that dish was. I suggested he recreate it and put it in a burrito. He thought it was a pretty good idea but I don’t know if traditionalist would go for it.
I like Chinese (american) food and have tried most of the americanized versions of these. I like mapo tofu, Peking duck, kung pao chicken, salt and pepper squid, and egg drop soup a lot.
Americanized Chinese food is for Americans who can’t appreciate Chinese cuisines. I hope people would be able to explore the Chinese culinary culture and have the opportunities to try the authentic Chinese food. Kudos to Anthony Bourdain for documenting all that in his food documentaries “parts unknown” and “no reservation”.
@@Mythmx oh really..How do you know about Cambodian food then? 😅 The dishes they gotta try (which is so many) but for me: Definitely prahok🤣🤣🤣 Nom Banh Chok Samlar Machu Twa ko with rice And for desserts : Num Chak Kachan Nom Korng Nom Lort (one of my favourites) Banh Ja’Neuk (my favourite other)
As a Chinese American The only thing I don’t understand why some people feel grossed out by chicken feet … American eat chicken … all the time when chicken leg , thigh , breasts and that’s tasty and suddenly it when it’s feet it’s gross ? Like I understand finding butt and intestines gross because that’s will shit came from but ….. Feet ? Really ? Y’all too sensitive Makes no sense Totally agree with the red scarfed lady ! China was a rural country less than 100 years ago . Many of elder generation Chinese grew up as farmers and we were taught since we were young to not waste single grain of rice . We were taught to appreciate food and eat every part of the animal . ( and less tasteful things like fish head , chicken bones will used in broth ) and not be wasteful And no wayyy you guys didn’t give them rice for Mapotofu ? Even a drink ? I love spicy food yet even I can’t handle that …. It wasn’t mean be eaten by itself that’s why they didn’t like it .
I def agree as an American but to answer your question it’s because when Americans eat meat, they don’t think about the whole animal just the part they want (leg, thigh, intestines) and anything outside of that is considered sometimes “dirty,healthy, or weird”. Like in the grocery we only see the meats we eat and all the other stuff thrown out or grinder into sausage or something. So essentially any meet not sold in an ordinary grocery store like pigs feet might creep an American out but their many places in America that sell pig feet and stuff. I adore that your culture admires not wasting the animal I wish America could adapt that logic cause we WASTE SO MUCH FOOD IN AMERICA ITS SAD
I like how this channel provides authentic versions of dishes, not like other channels e.g. saying the US style of kung pao chicken or California rolls (Japanese) are authentic dishes.
What’s the BEST Chinese dish? 🇨🇳
Peking duck! 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
My fav is xiao long bao
Soup dumblings
Mapo tofu. And I’m actually of Chinese descent myself, and I specifically requested a video like this and finally got it!

The way the the wiggled at her when she lifted it off the plate! 😅
If they told her that eating chicken feet gives you clear and beautiful skin because of the amount of collagen it has… she wouldn’t have freaked out 😂
I love her! She's just soooo funny and cool. Although I'd personally refuse to taste it just like xochitl.
I have seen pigs feet taco before so chicken feet is nothing.

This is os the firt time i here mexican complaining about other peoples food being spicy. Lol
i want Lulu to be my mama or auntie so FREAKING BAD. ughh i love her sm.
I'm also accustomed to chicken feet in soup from my abuelita's cooking. I'm surprised most hadn't tried it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the chicken feet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I knew a Mexican guy who worked at a well known Chinese restaurant. One of their best dishes was Hunan pork stir-fry in a spicy savory black bean sauce. That place closed down and years later I found him operating a taco truck. We both reminisced how great that dish was. I suggested he recreate it and put it in a burrito. He thought it was a pretty good idea but I don’t know if traditionalist would go for it.
Love lulu and Xotchyl they are very honest.
You’re wearing it! ❤😂
Gano mi tocaya! Woo hoo a Xochitl!

I spent 4 years living in china and I'm on my 3rd year living in Mexico so I'm pretty excited to see this
I like Chinese (american) food and have tried most of the americanized versions of these. I like mapo tofu, Peking duck, kung pao chicken, salt and pepper squid, and egg drop soup a lot.
Americanized Chinese food is for Americans who can’t appreciate Chinese cuisines. I hope people would be able to explore the Chinese culinary culture and have the opportunities to try the authentic Chinese food. Kudos to Anthony Bourdain for documenting all that in his food documentaries “parts unknown” and “no reservation”.
The congee should have some green onions and chili oil, and the mapo tofu should be eaten with rice
As native chinese, I have no idea what the fk egg flour soup is.
lulu esta obsesionada con el chicharron jjajaj amo
Love this sm!
Juk and mabo tofu are excellent choices! 😊
From the looks of Xiaolongbao, this is the food court grade.... and the rest of the dishes I assume bought from the same food court.....

🤣 love these videos
As a Chinese American
The only thing I don’t understand why some people feel grossed out by chicken feet … American eat chicken … all the time when chicken leg , thigh , breasts and that’s tasty and suddenly it when it’s feet it’s gross ? Like I understand finding butt and intestines gross because that’s will shit came from but ….. Feet ? Really ? Y’all too sensitive Makes no sense
Totally agree with the red scarfed lady ! China was a rural country less than 100 years ago . Many of elder generation Chinese grew up as farmers and we were taught since we were young to not waste single grain of rice . We were taught to appreciate food and eat every part of the animal . ( and less tasteful things like fish head , chicken bones will used in broth ) and not be wasteful
And no wayyy you guys didn’t give them rice for Mapotofu ? Even a drink ? I love spicy food yet even I can’t handle that …. It wasn’t mean be eaten by itself that’s why they didn’t like it .
I def agree as an American but to answer your question it’s because when Americans eat meat, they don’t think about the whole animal just the part they want (leg, thigh, intestines) and anything outside of that is considered sometimes “dirty,healthy, or weird”. Like in the grocery we only see the meats we eat and all the other stuff thrown out or grinder into sausage or something. So essentially any meet not sold in an ordinary grocery store like pigs feet might creep an American out but their many places in America that sell pig feet and stuff. I adore that your culture admires not wasting the animal I wish America could adapt that logic cause we WASTE SO MUCH FOOD IN AMERICA ITS SAD
Tomato and egg would be a classic home cooked dish in Chinese cuisine
I like how this channel provides authentic versions of dishes, not like other channels e.g. saying the US style of kung pao chicken or California rolls (Japanese) are authentic dishes.
Authentic Peking duck is actually with thin flour wrap instead of this fluffy Bao. They are very much like a thinner taco size tortilla.
Xochitl is adorable.
Love this three ladies ❤️❤️
Lady's description of tofu is exactly how tofu is used :D, flavours stick to it.
The lady with the red scarf is the only real Mexicana in this video
Chicken wings also have a bone unless they are boneless 😂. They also make boneless chicken feet. I would love to try some day!
This show makes me miss my mom a bit more today.
I died at Kunpao-or gongbao chicken. As a sichuan cuisine home cook from shandong province I would never admit that this is a "kunpao chicken"
The egg noodle soup needs to have the chicken feet in it, makes it more nice to eat, yummy yum
I love all mamacitas ❤❤❤
The congee can also be cooked in stock broth like chicken or veggie or beef, not just plain water.
