Having seen so many cooking videos from Lucas Sin I'm genuinely surprised he hasn't been offered a permanent ongoing segment or show. His narrative style is not only easy to follow but also very gripping as Lucas himself is filled to the brim with interesting facts and anecdotes that he readily shares with his viewers. He could possibly very well become the next Jamie Oliver.
My mom is over here yelling at the screen that the there needs to be more broth and to add a few drops of sesame seed oil. I've never had her get this into a cooking video. We absolutely love it when Chef Lucas represents.
@@brightsidexchoke it's not rude to slurp in Japan, going as far as being respectful. in china, it's not rude to slurp either, just not considered respectful
“Cantonese cooking isn’t allergic to that” - such an elegant way to phrase a thought! Chef deftly emulsifies art, history and culture into a lovely feast!
Can anyone give this man a constant platform? His combination of history, technique, professionalism and charm is so captivating. Love every single video he ever made for different channels.
For those interested traditionally the wontons and the spoon are put on the bottom below the noodles because the noodles and broth were the star of the show because the noodles were handmade and took alot of effort and skill using a bamboo log and pure duck eggs without adding any other liquids apart from a few drops of kansui (akaline water) that's why the noodles need to be rinsed in cold water to get rid of the soapy taste. Therefore by pushing the noodles up it prevented the noodles from getting soggy and mushy and loose its bounciness from sitting inside the broth for too long.
When Lucas said “If anyone knows why, please tell me cause I don’t “ I don’t think anyone would know either, I mean, he’s Lucas and he knows everything so it’s a pleasant surprise that anyone knows something that even Lucas didn’t know
Easily my favourite English speaking Chinese/Hongkong chef, He's so good at introducing the complex culture/history and variations of chinese dishes , in contrast to many chefs that would just say this is their family recipe/regional tradition, often giving instructions without saying why.
It's great the way Chef Lucas packs his commentary with layperson-friendly facts and techniques while at the same time making it clear that he could speak to experts for hours and in extreme technical detail on the same topics.
I like that he shows us how to wrap the won tons multiple times, so I don't have to keep rewinding. Also I feel like I was just hanging out on the kitchen stool while he showed me how to do this and he's just happily chatting. MORE LUCAS PLEASE.
we love the cultural context from Lucas sin. I'm Cantonese and I didn't even realise wonton meant "cloud swallow" until today. This language and culture has so many delicate little things and I'm glad we have Lucas to guide us.
This is an insane showcase of talent and precision! as someone from Hong Kong wonton is one of the testament of Canto cooking and to do everything within 40 minutes is absolutely unimaginable
I love this! Chef Lucas knows his stuff but he's not arrogant. He teaches me something new every time. He seems so nice and I just wanna plop down at his table and share some wontons!
Nicely done Lucas. I a'm also from HK and I will try my best to explain why traditional the Southern wonton is a snack and not a meal. In HK, wonton was originally sold as a quick street hawk lunch and has been kept as a snack/lunch item every since. As for the spoon, it is a technique used to keep the yellow noodle away from the sepreme clear broth and to keep the noodle from becoming soggy. No one likes soggy noodles of any kind. The cruchness of the noodle is just as important as the wonderful broth and the delicious wontons. Lastly, while the noodles are being elevated, the wonton (skin) too will not become soggy and overcooked. It's an evolution of how to better enjoy the Southern Style Wonton and was developed by the "Eat Gods" of HK over the years.
All the interruptions with additional information and other things that just occur to him in the moment -- I love it and I'd love to have a longer format with him talking another chef through a recipe like this. Also I'm fascinated by the details that go into what I always assumed was a simple broth.
Lucas truly is one of the most eloquent explainers. I love his narrative style & how much information he can pack into a video - he really is captivating to listen to. I hope food52 & Bon appetit host more content featuring him; he is a joy to listen to
Finally! A recipe that uses the dried flounder. I was watching many HK wonton videos and they all use the dried flounder, but I have never seen a wonton video in English with this ingredient. I have never seen the dried shrimp roe as an ingredient in the wonton itself though.
Lucas Sin is the perfect man. Good to look at, great voice, animated personality - and he can cook! I love all his recipes and explanations. Have not tried them yet as I am lazy, but this looks especially delicious.
Really enjoying the Lucas Sin content. As an American born Chinese I have had and enjoyed all these dishes as a child not knowing why or what about them. Lucas really makes me inspired to learn more of my Chinese cultures.
My dad has worked in Cantonese kitchens for most of his life with work ranging from yum cha chef to late night 'siw ye' quick eats. He knows a lot about Chinese food through intuition (plus he's a purist) but he struggles when explaining the nuances or the reasoning behind certain recipes and techniques. I am SO glad I happened upon Lucas' videos because he provides answers to a lot of questions I had. Simply put, Lucas is a modern, exemplary, fore-running expert and representative of Chinese cuisine. 1) He is deeply knowledgeable about the history, etymology, and chemical processes for every recipe. 2) He clearly has the skills and experience to back up everything he is saying. 3) He is articulate and concise, and knows when to check himself. 4) Unrelated bonus: He's has a nice voice and is good looking (lol). In short, Lucas is a culinary treasure. We NEED more chefs like him for every style of cuisine. Sincerely, A random fanboy
Lucas is a great teacher. He takes some (not all) of the mystery out of Chinese cooking and makes it more approachable. I love dumplings and the easy way he folds them is not as intimidating as other methods I've seen ... so much so that I want to make them. As others have suggested, give this man a show.
I loooove how he relates the relevant language to the ingredients, technique, culinary category, etc. it’s such an interesting feature of the cuisine, I feel like we don’t have a parallel in English.
I love watching him talk about food in a way that not only shares his knowledge but his sentiment. I never feel overburdened by facts or steps and always enjoy the added personal notes.
Wow, this glimpse in cooking in another culture is GOLD for me! Thank you so much for this, really, it is amazing! Your insight into cooking and Chinese cooking is so interesting. I wish I knew someone like Lucas so we could cook together. He brings the method together with the art. Please keep it up!
The best soup I have ever had by my old job at a super small mom/pop Chinese place for southern wonton soup with a chicken base. We used to have it at least once a week with their homemade chili sauce. The broth was so clean and clear with the best chicken flavor ever. Watching this makes me want to try to make my own because they are not there any more. Thank you, it is a joy to watch you and get a condensed history lesson.
Love these Lucas Sin videos. I’m from HK and i have never know how wonton broth is made and how sophisticated the techniques are - I just know it tastes amazing and unique. Thanks for this.
You sir are by far my favorite Chef on UA-cam. I really enjoy your sharing of the history and culture of China and the way foods have been perfected over hundreds and hundreds of years. Thank you!
Lucas, you are a true transitional master. Keeping the old-school flavors alive. I’ve been obsessed about Hong Kong wonton soup for 30 years and I learned so much by watching this video. You asked for a request so I’m going to ask you to show how to make a proper Cantonese seafood noodle crispy style. I’ll give you a little hint my secret ingredient is Harvey’s Bristol cream sherry. And I old Chinese friend of mine said it would make me lick the plate. He was correct.
wow this man's style of articulation and teaching skills are impeccable ! He is a good communicator and describes everything briskly and easy to understand ! wontons are yummy
whenever i see lucas sin, i immediately click on the video... love his explanations and the way he carries himself... hope there are more videos of him..
A significant compliment for your videos: I've enjoyed and thoroughly appreciated wun tun all my life, but your video made me appreciate them even more. The "snack size" thought was interesting. In Vancouver, if you order them with noodles, you get something like six hefty ones (around 10 if you order them without noodles) plus plenty of noodles, so it's a full meal for me for sure. The wun tun themselves can be gigantic depending on the place. When I was little and my parents made them on a weekend morning (with our help to fold some), my Dad ask me how many and I'd say maybe 10, and he was thinking like two dozen for everyone (but I was a kid and everyone else was an adult). But no noodles.
Really appreciate the bubble sizes explanation! Actually made a lot of sense to me as a visual learner. Save me the hassle of using a thermometer. Your explanations are very helpful and insightful. I like that you went through everything slowly step by step so I can follow along while cooking. The explanation of the science and culture aspects of the cooking processes is a really nice touch. Thank you for making the whole cooking process easy to see and follow!
re: 36:20 i think the traditional hk sai yung (細蓉) style of wonton had the spoon on the bottom, with the wontons on the spoon, + noodles on top of the wontons. they wanted you to eat the noodles first so the noodles dont get soggy at the bottom of the bowl.
I love watching Lucas cook. Fascinating and great learning. Sometimes chinese cooking is a bit out there and overwhelming for an amateur western Mediterranean homecook like me, but he does an amazing job at explaining the asian ingredients and techniques: what they are, why they're used, how, when and where to use them, etc. I only wish I could smell and taste with him every step of the way. Keep taping these, please.
This man is a skilled scientist and chef. I am so impressed and inspired. His presentation is professorial in an animated style, I love it! I need to research his story. His use of the English language is inspiring. If English is not his first language he has total mastery of English. His brilliance is sexy as all get out!
I love the detailed and technical style of Lucas's videos. It's like I just took a free cooking class. And the historical context is so very important.
Love how you explain everything in detail, the science and reasons behind it all! I’m from Taiwan and my mom is from Shanghai, in Vancouver we are exposed heavily to Cantonese cuisine and wonton is such a comfort food! I’ve never even heard of shrimp roe powder! Will definite look into it and more use of it too. Thanks Chef, looking forward to more of your Asian cuisine videos.
I love how Lucas’ passion, intelligence & intentionality are conveyed through every step from prep to finished product. As a designer, the background of his kitchen is so captivating. The black upper shelf combined with the blush glasses, plants, ecru nested bowls with sage green oil bottle on the counter & the color coordinated books plus pops of brighter colors is a total eye-gasm! ❤Well done!
As a HongKonger I'm also learning a lot from this video, Wonton is definitely my favorite, it's like a flavor bomb in the mouth, paired with dried shrimp eggs Lo-mein. Wonderful presentation as always Lucas!
I just can't help drooling as I watch you eat the wontons. Thanks for your detailed explanations in showing how to make these traditional dishes. You're full of passion and love to keep the recipe authentic.
Thank you so much for sharing your recipes and your explaining steps by steps and I love it a lot that you wrote down the recipe in every single show ❤😊
I have been learning how to make "wontons". For a year now. Mostly from eating frozen ones from the store and watching videos. I have gotten to the point where, evidently,. I am making my mistakes bigger and more perfect. LOL. I am making my own skins which though they are functional don't look like your's. I make both the egg yolk dough and the just water dough. I find I need to freeze them if cooking will be delayed even a little or they stick to everything. Mine are usually about the size of a small hen's egg. I really gained a lot of help from this video. Thank you.
Steamed ricerolls pleeeeaaaase. I’ve been living in NYC since 4 months and eating dried shrimp ricerolls every other day. As soon I am back to Germany (soon) I’ll desperately miss this dish and have to cook it myself. I love your videos!
In addition to the recipes, presented in such detail and with humour and a light touch, I love the cultural insights into Chinese cooking methods. Keep them coming please.
First thing I wanted to eat, every time I visit Hong Kong is wonton noodles. Thanks for the demo and I appreciate the uses of Cantonese terms here and there (some descriptions work best in Chinese), helps me make the connection for sure!
Obviously, he is an excellent teacher, but I think I appreciate his flavors the most. Each of the recipes I watch from him is delicious and something I haven't tried before. I have been cooking Japanese and Korean recipes for a few years now with decent success, but anytime I've tried Chinese recipes, I always seemed to mess it up and not know why. This video, and the video with Lucas's chilled sesame noodles, have helped me so much.
Having seen so many cooking videos from Lucas Sin I'm genuinely surprised he hasn't been offered a permanent ongoing segment or show. His narrative style is not only easy to follow but also very gripping as Lucas himself is filled to the brim with interesting facts and anecdotes that he readily shares with his viewers.

He doesn’t have one??
oooof, you had it until Jamie Oliver
@@nirro6 right?
And hey, maybe even Uncle Roger don't go "HAI-YAAA" at him!
@@jmcosmos Uncle Roger is a caricature. Lucas is an actual professional.
Lucas is an absolutely underrated chef and deserves way more recognition. One of my favorite chefs right now
Hottest new chef in America
Nah
I'm looking for his tofu dessert recipe #SaveSoil ♡

great use of the word "emulsify" in this context. Sorry but i am stealing.
Can anyone give this man a constant platform? His combination of history, technique, professionalism and charm is so captivating. Love every single video he ever made for different channels.
Keep in mind he's also a very busy restauranteur. He may not have wanted a regular show at this time.
I hope Lucas releases a cookbook jam packed with his rich knowledge because I would buy it in a heartbeat!
Agreed
Lucas has such a humble and quiet charisma. Exceptional teacher.

This hot dude needs his own show. He's intelligent, articulate and eye-candy, all rolled into one.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I could listen to Lucas talk about boiling water for hours - love this kind of content!
Replete with intelligence and knowledge, this guy is an amazing steward and teacher of Chinese culture. Hope to see more content with him featured.

I held my breath until I saw the dried flounder in the broth. Thank you for not trying to dance around this essential ingredient!
Just came here to see all the love Lucas receive everytime we had enjoy new video with him
I always wondered why the broth in wonton soup was so delicious. Thanks for demystifying it.

Lucas Sin is an absolute G. I'll watch anything with his name attached, he's awesome.
Lucas needs more recognition... So ready to understand and I've already made 4 different dishes that I just followed.
Bringing that heritage, which I can´t even begin to fathom, forward and onwards, is so admirable - thank you for that !

I am mesmerized by Chef Lucas Sin 😍… he’s beautiful in his passion for food and food education. Swoon!
I love watching Lucas cook. Fascinating and great learning. Sometimes chinese cooking is a bit out there and overwhelming for an amateur western Mediterranean homecook like me, but he does an amazing job at explaining the asian ingredients and techniques: what they are, why they're used, how, when and where to use them, etc. I only wish I could smell and taste with him every step of the way. Keep taping these, please.

His use of the English language is inspiring. If English is not his first language he has total mastery of English. His brilliance is sexy as all get out!
I love the detailed and technical style of Lucas's videos. It's like I just took a free cooking class. And the historical context is so very important.
Love how you explain everything in detail, the science and reasons behind it all! I’m from Taiwan and my mom is from Shanghai, in Vancouver we are exposed heavily to Cantonese cuisine and wonton is such a comfort food! I’ve never even heard of shrimp roe powder!
