for the people with MSG sensitivities, you can skip it. the effect of soy sauce/salt/vinegar/sugar when combined is already very umami. (MSG adds a umami flavor to foods)
Little hint to bring this to a whole new level. For most of the ingredients and spices with strong flavor for liangcai dishes, e.g. garlic, chili pepper, and such, leave it aside dry instead of mixing into the sauce. Pile those flavors on top of the dish after you mix all the other things, and pour a little bit of freshly heated oil onto it. Then do your final mix up. You just need maybe half a tablespoon oil or so to do the magic. Heat it up in a pan till it smokes, then scoop it with a spoon. That's it. Oh, another hint is, try some minced ginger with this method in the spinach dish - actually you can go fairly heavy for ginger here. You won't believe how good it is.
@@mynameisandong 😂😂 Lol True that! Good on you though! My parents made me go to Chinese School every Saturday (I was born in Australia) and Chinese is sooooo hard to learn. Yet in English I got top marks.....🙄🤣
dont forget to add cilantro and finely minced garlic with the black fungus!! my mom used to make that for me all the time growing up.. its so refreshing :-)
Chinese waiter: what will you like? Western: salad. Chinese waiter: here your cooked vegetables. Western: we don't cook salad. Chinese waiter: sure, here's your fermented vegetables fresh out of the clay pot.
We do. Italians have a LOT of cooked warm salads, just to mention the best cuisine in the world. But so do Germans and lots of other Norse people. The idea of salads with fresh vegetables is actually quite recent.
@@alexandresobreiramartins9461 it would be arrogant and wrong to say that italian cuisine is the best without taking the other cuisines into account but yeah i agree on warm salads
@@carlgustafe.mannerheim9479 I was more tongue in cheek. I don't really believe in "the best of" in any category. And honestly, there IS no such thing as "Italian cuisine", as if all Italy were one homogeneous mass that produced the same kind of cuisine. And son on and on. Just like China, you can Cantonese, Mandarin and what not cuisine. My bad for not properly conveying it with an emoticon or something.
@Stirgid Lanathiel You might be right with the idea of raw kale, which is really something unheard of in any country were kale is eaten traditionally and not as fad bunny food. Other than that, raw salads are by far not exclusive to American cusinine. But you are right, we should appreciate the advantages of cooking for our health much more.
I have to say I love your recipe better than some Chinese recipe. You must have lived in China or this culture for years:) or you were a Chinese in past life.
just wanna say "liang cai" is more of an appetizer but not really to eat with heavier dishes :0 "liang cai" comes before the main entrees and usually don't mix together. but great video!
It's also called 'wood ear fungus/mushroom' in English. You might be able to find it in Asian grocery stores since it's a very common Chinese ingredient. If you're looking for a similar texture to this, you can try jellyfish (but this is probably harder to find than the mushroom). However this dressing is commonly used in other salads like with fresh crunchy bean sprouts or sliced cucumber.
@@mynameisandong vielen Dank für den Tipp 😉 ich bekomm es auch ganz gut hin, aber irgendwie fehlt mir beim essen irgendwie die Atmosphäre 😅 muss unbedingt einmal wieder nach 中国
@BIGFOOOOOT no this is serious, the normal soaking time should be 3 - 4 hours. It loses texture after 6… Become toxic after 8. But it only applies to this one fungus/mushroom.
Cool, but the sesame oil is not great. Its better to follow this video www.iqiyi.com/w_19rqsj67vx.html, to produce the essential liangban oil which gives you much more special, rich and complex favor, or maybe you are lazy, you can buy this detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.1.32fc53bbdhddXy&id=578183096177&cm_id=140105335569ed55e27b&abbucket=2. Finally it will total make you get high. If you want to get it much more like the real Chinese street food, you can buy this item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.14.3f472842BlAXjg&id=564924806604&ns=1&abbucket=2#detail, which contains poppy fruit power, so it a little bit of addicted, but its really really recommand. All of above sounds horrible, but its pretty common in Chinese street food, people just cant forget the chemical taste.
By the way, never never mix it with your hand anymore in make Chinese liangban dishe, its looks really impolite, rude, unacceptable and disgusts, because it will produce potential healthy risk and not elegant. It's better to use chopsticks with the skill of 颠锅（ ua-cam.com/video/rQPuzfag38Y/v-deo.html ）, which is more efficient and healthy

So, hopefully you got a dishwasher o.o

It is better to use chili oil instead of sesame oil in the first dish.
Authentic, confirmed! Sometimes we just use chopsticks to mix them so we don't need to wash hands afterwards (too lazy) :P.
I'm Chinese and I'm taking down your recipe right now.
The world's tiniest whisk. 7:20

Black fungus is toxic if you have hydrated it for too long (8 hours).
Please notice this when preparing it.
@BIGFOOOOOT no this is serious, the normal soaking time should be 3 - 4 hours.
It loses texture after 6…
Become toxic after 8.
But it only applies to this one fungus/mushroom.
