The other thing is that grandfather is respectful. When asked how to make this vegetarian, he answers the question sincerely with suggestions like adding mushroom. While such a question/suggestion is obvious to older people (like me), it takes a second to be kind to the young people who have been abandoned by their parents to the world of cooking. (Don't forget single working parent households are extra hard on the kids.) Even when your parents did try to teach you, you never know when there's a tip or trick that your parent/s didn't teach you or you haven't stumbled on through your own experimentation. It also pays to remember that some people do not like to experiment and quite literally need to follow a recipe or chef with the same kind of nervous energy that one might have for an academic exam. When you experiment without any guidance, the chances of getting blah food is pretty high, and if you have a sensitive pallate, it can really put you off trying. So yes, it is a serious question for some people, and on their behalf I thank grandfather for answering it respectfully.
That salt and pepper fried tofu might actually get my husband to enjoy tofu. It looks amaaaazing. Super informative video, as always (and the flute occasionally in the background is so soothing)
I was looking for tofu recipes last week, but it looks like I might need to make another trip to the grocery store. That salt and pepper fried tofu looks good. Thanks for the upload!
I feel like Chef Lau was formerly a professional chef. His methods are so precise. His cooking really made me appreciate tofu.. thumbs up and subscribed!
Your videos are very inspiring. Tried the ma po tofu today and it was very addictive. I substituted the meat with veggy variant made of pea protein. Tasted well enough for me as a meat lover
Thank you for the input! I am a meat eater, however not anymore. I have to eliminate it from my diet, not wanting to but needing to. If others can survive so can I. Lol
@@dawnstanley1733 Sounds scary, hope you Do well. I just avoid it if possible when cooking for the whole family. My wife is a vegetarian. The other "Wow"-moment was, when we made aubergine quite similar to the recipe from Mr Lau.
I love watching your videos because my mom Americanized my siblings and I. I never got to learn much about my culture but watching your videos makes me feel close to home :) I remember Par Par and Gung Gung making Lo Mai Gai and the Lo Bak Goh for me all the time as a kid… Does your dad know how to make Har Gow? I wonder if he knows how to make Baked Guk Cah Siu Bau- I’d absolutely explode to learn those recipes 🥹❤️ Par Par and Gung Gung were born and raised in Macau, and Dai Yee Ma was born in Macau as well! Yee Yee and my mother were born in Chinatown NY 😅 I’m the youngest, but the only other word I know for family terms is Gau Gau 🤣
Hi there, I enjoy all your videos. If you guys are taking requests then I would like to request how to make salted egg shrimp,crab, mushrooms or anything really. Thank you!!
Hello! I am interested to start cooking and I wonder what are the main sauce or spice should I start to stock if I want to start cooking various dishes in this channel. Thanks
My 2c worth (in order of importance): the ubiquitous soy sauce (of course), oyster sauce, toasted sesame oil, Shaoxing rice wine, fish sauce (or shrimp paste/gapi/belacan for that hint of seafood umami)
I love tofu, especially the stuffed tofu dish. However, I noticed Daddy Lau placed the hot wok on the counter right after he finished steaming the stuffed tofu. Yikes. Hope he didn't damage his nice granite countertop!
❤Tofu Guiltily speaking, fried is soooooo yummy, I love it however it may be served. Gimme spicy, juicy, fried tofu with some steamed rice or dry noodles, I'm a happy gal. 😊 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

I truly enjoy watching Daddy Lau demonstrate his recipes. Son Lau is the best narrator.
Glad you guys help out us vegetarians and vegans to make this delicious dish.
Chopping the filling is much more tastier than using the processor. This was really a nice vlog. Enjoyed it very much. Love your dad!! ❤

I just love him for that too. 😊

I have to watch my fat intake, so I am considering other options. This is one of them.
I just saw father lau at Costco and i wanted to say hi but I don’t know Cantonese hahaha 😅
You could have said lei hou, but i dont blame you bc you said you dont know cantonese
Made the salt and pepper tofu today. Amazing texture and flavour profile, not to mention cheap!

I’m so excited to try these recipes! I never understood why people hated tofu!
Thank you so much for making these videos, they are so helpful! Daddy Lau reminds me of my grandfather. They look similar and cook similar.

Can Lau Sir do a vid about how to make 「老少平安」,that dish with tofu and fish paste mixed into a mince and steamed into a soft cake like thing?
Amazing recipe, thank you so much 😊

15:09 I think plain baking before frying would be easier.
Can Mr Lau makes Pork Intestine deep fry. Please thank u

😆 He thinks the countertop is made from the same material as his asbestos chef hands.
Absolutely love tofu and will be cooking all of these (again) soon 😀

What would be a nice substitute for oyster sauce in Chinese recipes for people with shellfish allergies?
There is a mushroom oyster sauce made for vegetarians I think as this diet has a big part in Buddhism.
The son is truly hopeless in the kitchen you can tell 😭😭😭
Too long. Too many everything. Steps, ingredients. Meh
Ojalá La traducción sea también en español!!
