My son is trying to figure out Poh Poh’s steamed black bean spareribs. (Sometimes the culinary genius skips a generation - I get to enjoy the results.) Daddy Lau, you got any tricks to share?
@@MadeWithLau I’m from Guangzhou, your dad’s recipes are very similar to what I always like to eat. And I really like that he kinda combines Cantonese with northern food in some dishes. If I have to name a few dishes that i wish to learn probably would be 萝卜牛腩 and 艇仔粥. But thank you for all the great recipes! And I really enjoy watching your family eating together!
I will have to totally agree with you there! The layout and explanations & instructions have been the best, especially in translations and it's the first time I've made something with taro.
I checked out your channel because Chinese Cooking Demystified recommended it. And now, I plan on binge watching all your videos! Your channel is so good!
Haven’t seen my family because of covid in over a year and often miss all the big family holidays with them. Love when y’all sit together and talk about stuff near the end, makes me like I’m with my family 💕 thank you Lau family!!
Awww thank you so much for sharing this comment with us. It was so heartwarming to read! We're so touched that our conversations remind you of your own family. We hope that you'll be able to reunite with them soon! Thank you so much for the love.
Subbed, my parents are old and can’t make Chinese food anymore while I can’t read Chinese because I was never taught. I’m so glad this channel exists because I can now make this for them to eat! Thank you for the video. I hope one day you guys do a video on har gao, it’s my dad’s favorite!

Glutinous rice is also known as sweet rice but it is not literally sweet from any form of sugar. Nor does it contain gluten.
I haven't seen my parents or eaten their food for so long. I can't describe how much I miss them. Just watching your Dad cook makes me feel so nostalgic; your production quality makes it feel like I'm in the kitchen with him. I'm so glad to have discovered your channel (thanks to Chinese Cooking Demystified). I hope I can recreate some fond memories through your recipes!
We're so touched to read this - we're honored that our videos transport you to great times with great people :) We really appreciate the love and kind words! Excited to continue sharing more with you.
Thank you so much for the high praise! We're so grateful to have you here with us along for the journey :) Are there any videos / recipes you want to see next?
I'm really excited to watch this channel! My grandma moved here from HK and after she passed away, a lot of the knowledge of cantonese cooking was lost with her. I look forward to learn from your family!
Thank you for sharing that story Ryan, I'm sure her food was incredible. That's honestly a big motivation for me to share and work on this now - I want to capture their legacy and pass it down to our kids one day. It'll be such a treasure to have. We're excited to share with you!
I don’t know if you monitor comments, I’m half Chinese, and I honestly wish my dad taught me what your dad knows about Chinese cuisine…. He wasn’t around much so my Mom taught me Guatemalan dishes… but watching your vids make me feel your dad is the dad I wanted to teach me. Thank you!
what an amazing channel to stumble across. recipes as thorough as chinese cooking demystified but feels fun and accessible like andong's stuff. great work! stoked that i'll get to watch you blow up.
Wow! Thank you so much for kind words! This was so encouraging to read ❤️❤️ Those are both great channels and we’re honored to be mentioned in the same sentence. It means a lot! Out of curiosity, how did you find us?
absolutely! it’s always so great to see new chinese cooking video platforms, especially ones as thoughtful as your own. i saw y’all on reddit but am quite active here on youtube. i’ll definitely be sharing your content. want to say too that the family round table is such an unique aspect to your channel. building that intimate personal connection with the audience feels super special. stories as good as the food!
@@joshuapulsifer2243 Oh that's great to hear - the reddit communities have been very welcoming! Lots of great stuff being shared there. I really appreciate you sharing our content! That means a lot to us. The family conversations are really fun to capture and to share. When I was thinking about how to best document the stories, I felt like sharing a meal together would be really special, but I wasn't sure if people would be engaged with it since it does make the video quite a bit longer. I think there are people out there who probably skip those parts, but it's great to hear that you connect with it and with our family. It's also just great to be able to have that recorded for our kids and future generations to see their grandparents' personalities :)
Your parents are a delight, and their history and info really add to the vid and make it so interesting ! What a blessing they are ! Can't wait to see Cam grow up ❤
Love your video to capture your dad's authentic Chinese cooking, that's the art you wonderfully preserved. Thanks for sharing the family recipes with all of us. I followed the recipe and it was a success. Love your family time.
Yay! So grateful that you tried out our recipe and enjoyed it! I appreciate your kind words about the channel and can't wait to continue sharing more with you ❤️
I came to your channel on the recommendation of Chinese Cooking Demystified and I instantly subscribed. I didn't learn how to speak properly growing up but I understand it well so hearing your dad explain how to cook is such comfort to me. it's definitely helping me learn Cantonese but also the dishes I grew up eating but never was able to learn from my mom. your English explanation as well is thorough and easy to understand and it's honestly something I've been looking for from Chinese UA-cam cooking channel. I appreciate what you guys are doing and I really do look forward to what's to come :)
Thank you so much for the kind words Vi! I totally agree on the Cantonese part - that's a personal motivation for me to learn more about my culture and heritage. I've always had a language barrier with my dad (thankfully my mom knows both Eng/CN) and these videos have brought us a lot closer. Learning a lot about all things Chinese! We're grateful to be able to share with you and that you're here with us on the journey! Any videos you want to see next?
@@MadeWithLau lo mai fan/sticky rice or dumplings ! I've tried to make dumplings at home but they never turn out right so I'm hoping your dad has some good tips
I stumbled upon this video, absolutely loved it and have been watching and liking all your other videos. I am Malaysian Chinese btw. Daddy Lau is a rockstar!
Oh wow so glad you found us Veronica! Thank you for the kind words, we are so happy that you are enjoying our videos. We hope you and your family are having a Happy New Year and we can’t wait to continue sharing many more recipes with you! ❤️
That's seriously brilliant! I appreciate uncle's way of explaining, calmness in cooking and his experience. I'm hindu, but happy watching uncle speak in Chinese although I don't understand- but I do understand with the english translation. Best wishes uncle!
Wow, thank you so much Premila! So grateful you found our channel and enjoyed watching dad cook and speak. Happy New Year to you and your family ❤️ We can’t wait to continue sharing many more recipes with you in the future!
I appreciate the detailed yet easy to follow step by step instructions. Your Dad's video and stories from China give us perspective on how this recipe has evolved.
Assalamualaikum. Im fasting n this looks so yummeh!! Thanks for sharing the recipes, great videos! Now i can make thm at home without doubting the halal ingredients according to my diet. Your dad is a gem🙌🙌
Made this yesterday, although I didn't handle the flour and liquid mix well so my cake turned out a bit too loose, the flavor was extremely good. It hit home with me of the Cantonese food my parents used to make for us growing up but they've been long gone. Thanks Daddy Lau and Randy so much for these wonderful videos. I can continue to enjoy my childhood comfort food again and again.
I love taro cake. Recipe looks simple and easy to cook. Good tips given too. Love to watch the bonding between 3 generations. So loving and take the effort to include the little one which can be quite a handful. Good job Laus, keep it up.
Thank you so much Yin Yong chew! We are so grateful that you found our channel and this recipes in particular! So delicious and we hope you are able to try soon 😋❤️
Your dad is so cute! Thank him for showing us how to cook foods our parents aren’t around to teach us or we can’t read Chinese. Tell him to show us how to make stuffed tofu rolls with pork soon.
Oh yum! Will add to our list of suggestions 😋 Thank you for watching. We appreciate your support and can't wait to keep sharing more recipes with you! ❤️
Daddy Lau is an absolute good chef. Really love his food so far. Thank you for all your hard works & sharing, however, I would like to see you (the grandpa) & your wife (grandma) to be served at the family dinning table one day. It's a Chinese culture!
🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♀️We hope you are able to watch and enjoy some of our later videos. We appreciate your comment on promoting that part of our culture and now always make sure to serve them first ❤️
Hahaha yeah! It was so cool to capture and be able to dig into old footage. Hoping to go back with our entire family in the near future. That is a dream of mine!
This is definitely the best I've seen - my granny cut the taro without any problems too. I've got most of the ingredients except the taro. Heading to the store now! Yeehar!
Ahhh thank you so much for the love and kind words Rosette :) That means a lot to our family and put a smile on our faces to read! How did you find our channel?
I am a cantonese person. I love this dish 😊 my mom cooks the exact recipes that he uses In his other videos. It's very simple and delicious 😋🤤 I'm a chef now and I finally understand that simple is plenty.
Greetings from Singapore. Im a new subscriber. I’m half Cantonese and also surname Lau. I recently retired from working and so have more time to spend in the kitchen and watching your videos give me more ideas to try out new recipes. Keep up the good work.
My grandma is 98 and doesn't remember her recipes that much anymore. Thank you for documenting all of these treasures from your father and sharing these with all of us. I make this recipie for taro cake everytime I visit home and make batches for my grandma so she can freeze them and my mom can help her fry some up whenever she wants.
We eat a lot of taro now i can try this recipe thanks for sharing I love your mum and dad love the traditional way of cooking I try and remember what my grandma taught me hopefully? Stay safe
when your dad speak , he sounds just like my dad specially the accent. i don't know the birth place of my dad and he is also a good cook, we lived in the southern part of the philippines our last name is Liang or Leong , he told me that we have relatives in Canada before his passed away. your dad reminds me a lot of my dad that's the reason why i subscribe to your channel. stay safe everybody.
I just made a big taro cake using this recipe today and it came out really great. Thanks for sharing all these wonderfully authentic dishes of my childhood that I can now make myself.
hi lau family! i’ve never seen how this dish is made before and it was so engaging watching your ba make it! he makes it look so simple, but i just knooooow that dish is killer. you’re so lucky to enjoy all these delicious meals!! when i have some more people to cook for, i’m trying this recipe 😋
Thank you so much for the kind words!! We are very blessed to enjoy Daddy Lau’s cooking ❤️❤️❤️ You’ll have to let us know how it turns out when you try it!
We knew Mr Lau was a gangster the moment he brought out the flute! This makes taro cake look much more accessible to make at home than I would’ve guessed, thanks for another great video!
Gong Hei Fatt Choy from Singapore! I chanced upon your channel and now I can’t stop bing watching. My hubby is Cantonese and I’d want to cook all these yummy Cantonese dishes for him. I also absolutely love the tips that Chef Lau dispenses throughout the videos. I’ve tried the oyster sauce Kai lan recipe for Chinese New Year and my family loved it. Thanks! Will be trying other recipes soon!
Awww thank you so much for binge watching and for the kind wishes! We're so grateful you found us :) Happy New Year! I hope you and your husband love our recipes!
I love taro cake! I never use gloves when cutting it either. Now, I need to find a way to make this keto! Thank you for a great detailed video! Nicely done!
Aloha from Nuuanu, Hawaii, thanks for producing this taro cake recipe it's the best. Refer to it whenever I harvest Chinese taro from my yard and make taro cake, which I love to eat and reminds me of my mom's taro cake that she made over half a century ago. Unfortunately, she is gone and so is her recipe. The rice pounder also reminds me of the one that my grandmother had and all my uncles had to pound rice to make the floor for gau.
We are so glad we found this channel. It is very well produced and the content is excellent. My mom is from the same area as your parents so I have been playing these for her. Daddy Lau's detail explanation and your pertinent questions are excellent. BTW, your recipes and the way Daddy Lau cooks is exactly the way she taught us. Do you think you can do a version of this but using Sago (sai mai)? Unfortunately my mom can't remember the quantities anymore so we have been searching the net for it. Thank you for sharing your family with us.
Hi Theresa, thank you so much for the kind words! We're so glad you found us as well! Thank you for sharing with your family as well :) I will ask my dad about that version! Do you know the Chinese characters for Sago? I'm not exactly sure what it is.
Thank you for asking your dad. We will be forever grateful if your dad has this recipe as we have been searching for it for ages. My mom is 91 and we would love to make this for her. The Cantonese character for sago is 西米. BTW my brother made this taro cake using your recipe and it tastes just like my mom's - unfortunately we ate it all before remembering we should have taken a photo to show you. Thank you again for a brilliant channel!
In Toronto all restaurants are locked down and my grandparents and I have been craving this for a while. Thank you for posting this. I am a Chef Lau fan. Have always loved Chinese cooking shows like Yan Can Cook 😊
Just finished watching your video. Thanks for sharing your culture with us. You make cooking Chinese food easier. And thanks for explaining the meaning behind each dish. I learnt alot about the importance of taro cake this evening. Kinanaskomitin. I thank you.
Wow! I always love ordering this dish for Dim Sum and now to be able to make it myself is a great accomplishment. My Dad who is no longer with us, would have really been impressed! :) Thank you, Mr Lau and family :)
Waaah leng doy, Cam Cam =) Holy moly!!! Where do I start?! I'm here by way of CCDM and boy, am I glad I did! From the Chinese history, wonderful flute music, to the cantonese lessons (my cantonese is weak so when asked, I say I'm an ABC, which is a TOTAL lie, to save from further embarrassment, but yet not as bad as my Hoisanese😅), easy to follow instructions, awesome editing, graphics, and the wholesome family meal segment, I'm loving this! Keep up the awesome work! Cheers =)
Thank you so much for being here with us and for all of the kind words! We're grateful to have you along with us for the journey of sharing our recipes and heritage :) My Cantonese isn't the greatest either hahaha so creating these videos help out a lot! Glad you're enjoying so many aspects of the videos - feels great to know you appreciate it so much!

Thank you so much for the high praise Giuseppe! We're humbled to read this :) It means a lot to our family!
@Beacon of love- I agree ❤️
Wonder how it would turn out if tapioca is used in place of yam?
@@joeawk I sometimes use pumpkin instead of taro. Tapioca will be a different texture and tapioca lacks the sweetness.
I will have to totally agree with you there! The layout and explanations & instructions have been the best, especially in translations and it's the first time I've made something with taro.
I love Daddy Lau’s little tips as he’s cooking. It’s soooo insightful! For the first time, I feel grateful I understand Cantonese.
Awww thank you so much! I'm really grateful too! It's great to be able to learn the language through cooking.
Right?? It’s a cooking lesson AND a Cantonese tutorial
I love that you have both chinese and english subtitles on so we can watch it with our parents
Your dad reminds me of my dad who also worked in a restaurant for most of his life, he cooks for us on his only day off. Thank you!

Taro Cake is my favorite Dim Sum dish, I could eat it till the cows come home. thank you for sharing your video with us. Canada!
Thank you so much for watching! Agree we LOVE taro cake we could eat till the cows come home too 😆
This is definitely the best I've seen - my granny cut the taro without any problems too. I've got most of the ingredients except the taro. Heading to the store now! Yeehar!

I'm a chef now and I finally understand that simple is plenty.
Greetings from Singapore. Im a new subscriber. I’m half Cantonese and also surname Lau. I recently retired from working and so have more time to spend in the kitchen and watching your videos give me more ideas to try out new recipes. Keep up the good work.

Your dad should put his music online I could listen too it at night it's so soothing.
Haha I love that you say that! Glad to hear that you are enjoying his music. Maybe someday we will do that!
My grandma is 98 and doesn't remember her recipes that much anymore. Thank you for documenting all of these treasures from your father and sharing these with all of us. I make this recipie for taro cake everytime I visit home and make batches for my grandma so she can freeze them and my mom can help her fry some up whenever she wants.
I love your videos,your videos is very valuable, Cantonese 廚師及粵菜越來越少人做，多謝你和你爸爸的分享喔。🙏🙏🙏
We eat a lot of taro now i can try this recipe thanks for sharing I love your mum and dad love the traditional way of cooking I try and remember what my grandma taught me hopefully? Stay safe
劉爸爸一些小動作，顯得他是一個不拘小節及胸無成俯，傳統有禮的廣東人，非常捧，讚！！∶D
非常感謝您的支持和讚美！老劉衷心㊗️您和家人健康快樂平安吉祥！
when your dad speak , he sounds just like my dad specially the accent. i don't know the birth place of my dad and he is also a good cook, we lived in the southern part of the philippines our last name is Liang or Leong , he told me that we have relatives in Canada before his passed away. your dad reminds me a lot of my dad that's the reason why i subscribe to your channel. stay safe everybody.
I just made a big taro cake using this recipe today and it came out really great. Thanks for sharing all these wonderfully authentic dishes of my childhood that I can now make myself.

We knew Mr Lau was a gangster the moment he brought out the flute! This makes taro cake look much more accessible to make at home than I would’ve guessed, thanks for another great video!
He's such a boss haha. And yeah I agree, this made it seem way less intimidating.
Hilarious.
Gong Hei Fatt Choy from Singapore! I chanced upon your channel and now I can’t stop bing watching. My hubby is Cantonese and I’d want to cook all these yummy Cantonese dishes for him. I also absolutely love the tips that Chef Lau dispenses throughout the videos. I’ve tried the oyster sauce Kai lan recipe for Chinese New Year and my family loved it. Thanks! Will be trying other recipes soon!
Awww thank you so much for binge watching and for the kind wishes! We're so grateful you found us :) Happy New Year! I hope you and your husband love our recipes!

Thanks for sharing the recipes. Reliving foods from my childhood days😁
Thank you so much Natalie! We are so grateful that you found our channel, and we can’t wait to continue sharing many more recipes with you! ❤️
Aloha from Nuuanu, Hawaii, thanks for producing this taro cake recipe it's the best. Refer to it whenever I harvest Chinese taro from my yard and make taro cake, which I love to eat and reminds me of my mom's taro cake that she made over half a century ago. Unfortunately, she is gone and so is her recipe. The rice pounder also reminds me of the one that my grandmother had and all my uncles had to pound rice to make the floor for gau.
We are so glad we found this channel. It is very well produced and the content is excellent. My mom is from the same area as your parents so I have been playing these for her. Daddy Lau's detail explanation and your pertinent questions are excellent. BTW, your recipes and the way Daddy Lau cooks is exactly the way she taught us. Do you think you can do a version of this but using Sago (sai mai)? Unfortunately my mom can't remember the quantities anymore so we have been searching the net for it. Thank you for sharing your family with us.
Hi Theresa, thank you so much for the kind words! We're so glad you found us as well! Thank you for sharing with your family as well :)
I will ask my dad about that version! Do you know the Chinese characters for Sago? I'm not exactly sure what it is.
Thank you for asking your dad. We will be forever grateful if your dad has this recipe as we have been searching for it for ages. My mom is 91 and we would love to make this for her. The Cantonese character for sago is 西米. BTW my brother made this taro cake using your recipe and it tastes just like my mom's - unfortunately we ate it all before remembering we should have taken a photo to show you. Thank you again for a brilliant channel!
I’m usually not a fan of taro cake but your dad makes it look good!
Thanks for the love! Kat loveeessss Taro Cake, she was a big advocate for making this video haha.
Papa Lau is the best!!
I enjoy watching your dad’s cooking
Thank you so much Christine! We are so grateful that you found our channel, and we can’t wait to continue sharing many more recipes with you! ❤️
I'm so happy that I found your video. I like to try that your Dad cook. Very easy to follow. Thank you.
In Toronto all restaurants are locked down and my grandparents and I have been craving this for a while. Thank you for posting this. I am a Chef Lau fan. Have always loved Chinese cooking shows like Yan Can Cook 😊
I love your video, thank you for giving us all the information about the cookware and all the components. Thank you so much.
I enjoy his childhood stories. Do you have longer videos on Daddy Lau's village?
Just finished watching your video. Thanks for sharing your culture with us. You make cooking Chinese food easier. And thanks for explaining the meaning behind each dish. I learnt alot about the importance of taro cake this evening. Kinanaskomitin. I thank you.
Wow! I always love ordering this dish for Dim Sum and now to be able to make it myself is a great accomplishment. My Dad who is no longer with us, would have really been impressed! :) Thank you, Mr Lau and family :)
Thank you for showing us this recipe, I will make it for sure.
Yay we can't wait to hear if you enjoy it!
I made this and it was so delicious! Thank you for this excellent recipe.
Yay, we are so grateful that you tried out our recipe and enjoyed it! We can't wait to continue sharing more with you ❤️
Thank you to your dad, just watched this, love the recipe and the chat :)
I think I can try it by following the video. And hopefully this Dim Sum can be on holiday party table 🍹🍺
Yay! You'll have to let us know how it turns out for you :)
Love this channel! Your dad is a fantastic cook!
Thank you so much Johnny! We are so grateful that you found our channel, and we can’t wait to continue sharing many more recipes with you! ❤️
Waaah leng doy, Cam Cam =)
Holy moly!!! Where do I start?! I'm here by way of CCDM and boy, am I glad I did! From the Chinese history, wonderful flute music, to the cantonese lessons (my cantonese is weak so when asked, I say I'm an ABC, which is a TOTAL lie, to save from further embarrassment, but yet not as bad as my Hoisanese😅), easy to follow instructions, awesome editing, graphics, and the wholesome family meal segment, I'm loving this!
Keep up the awesome work! Cheers =)
Thank you so much for being here with us and for all of the kind words! We're grateful to have you along with us for the journey of sharing our recipes and heritage :)
My Cantonese isn't the greatest either hahaha so creating these videos help out a lot! Glad you're enjoying so many aspects of the videos - feels great to know you appreciate it so much!
thank you and happy new year! I miss this cake...my grandma used to make it.
