    Oyster sauce, Shaoxing cooking wine, untoasted sesame seeds and sesame oil, kombu, and bonito flakes/granules/dashi are all items I'd consider for your pantry as you are unlikely to find quality versions of those items anywhere but Asian supermarkets.

      I also think black vinegar some starch(potato, corn, etc), white pepper, (dried) bay leaves, five spice(Fennel, Star Anise, Chinese Cinnamon, Cloves, and sichuan peppercorn), MSG(optional), and dark soy sauce are good things to have as well. There are a few more that I can't think of right now, but this is a pretty good list.

    gochujang , sesame oil, miso, hoisin, oyster sauce, noodle of choice and sweet chili sauce is what id add personally. Also for the rice , I also loved that brand of calrose but as I get older I have switched to Whole grain Basmati rice because it has a lower glycaemic index. if you dont get that food coma then not a issue for you tho but for the older peeps that are afraid to catch the sugas its a good option.

    Was recently introduced Chinese black vinegar and I can’t stop using it. Perfect base for dipping sauce for dumplings or for hot pot

    I always also pick up noodles at the asian grocery store. WAY more selection to make sure I get the right thing. Also FYI sambal is a category of sauces, that specific one is sambal oelek. Sambal kecap and sambal terasi are also excellent.

    Kewpie is a muuuuuust have. I was hella excited when i seen my costco selling some. Cause you definitely need that in bulk lol. But essentials when i go to the Asian market. I have to get some good kombu. Gochujang. Miso paste. And dried shiitake

    The Lee Kee Kum Premium Dark Soy Sauce at 3:46 is one I always grab. Also the Twin Marquis frozen Lo Mein Noodles, and white peppercorns for a way better price than most American grocery stores if you can even find them there.

    that golden mountain seasoning sauce is essential for southeast asians. Better than soy sauce imo

  • @darkhorsefive0
    @darkhorsefive0 8 місяців тому +1

    Kewpie mayo is the BEST mayo, but get the Japanese packaged version. The American grocery store English label Keepie is NOT the same.

    Golden Mountain Seasoning sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, jasmine rice specifically Three Ladies Rice

    Your ingrediants reflect japanese or thai, I'd buy Shaoxing wine, Chinkiang vinegar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, tofu skin, chili crisp, er jing tao chilis, and the ingredients for five spice powder in whole spice form.

    In addition to Japanese rice vinegar I enjoy Chinese black vinegar. 3 Crab is mediocre at best. Son fish sauce is so much better.

    • @TheDexi256
      @TheDexi256 8 місяців тому

      Sesame oil is the most common I assume

    • @S0lar_Flare
      @S0lar_Flare 8 місяців тому +2

      @@TheDexi256 For cooking, you usually use peanut oil, lard/tallow, corn, sunflower, etc. Sesame is usually used at the end because it has a strong fragrance that you want to preserve. You can also use it as a garnish, topping, or in a sauce.

    • @terrywong7677
      @terrywong7677 8 місяців тому +1

      Yeah you're usually not frying anything in sesame oil. Its fragrance goes away and you're left with a weird flavour

    Kewpie kinda reminds me of Miracle Whip

    • @bgriffiths1840
      @bgriffiths1840 18 днів тому

      Authentic Kewpie shouldn't be anything like Miracle Whip. In North America there's often three versions you can come across. The Japanese one which is very eggy and has absolutely no sugar. The mass-market American one and the Costco one which are both gross and not much different than commercial American sugary mayo or Miracle Whip. It's worth checking the packaging before buying if you're not into the Miracle Whip vibes.

      Maybe you should ask her instead
      He's grabbed a lot of Japanese brands, which is fine but Chinese cooking and flavors are very much its own thing and have different staples
      Like Chinese cooking wine or black vinegar
      I'm sure she'll appreciate the gesture but no one loves being confused for the wrong kind of Asian
      Plus it's better to learn about her culture from her

    whats the difference between rice vinegar and mirin?

    • @bgriffiths1840
      @bgriffiths1840 18 днів тому

      Rice vinegar is vinegar. Mirin is a sweet wine used in cooking.
