    Stumbled upon your channel several years ago and I always try to watch every cooking video with your dad. I love the Cantonese cooking. Reminds me of my household growing up since my dad was also a Chinese chef. My dad passed away 7 years ago and watching these videos, makes me so happy and reminds me of all the conversations I’d have with him in the kitchen. Please continue the great work!

    A lot of Asians in Asia in general will want their steak to this doneness in general as the redness of of a medium rare looks raw. But if we’re talking about techniques in general there are a quite a few channels that do the frequent flip to get a even doneness as Daddy Lau would do here. Also, doing the corn starch on the steak allows for a crust and if you choose to make a sauce it will stick to the meat well as I’ve seen this done at many HK cafes.

    I must send you a big thanks from germany. I somehow stumbled over a video, where you showed how to cook Broccoli cantonese style. I am an experienced home cook, but i managed it to never hear about the advantage of precooking vegetables before stir frying it. It's absolutely fantastic and will ramp up my veggy consumption. I surely will try that soup too. And the lollipop chicken wings of course. 🙏

    • @doublestrokeroll
      @doublestrokeroll 8 місяців тому

      There's just so much diversity within what we westerners call "chinese food" compared to other regions. I think most westerners don't even realize the sheer variety of flavors and ingredients because in most western places "chinese food" is only represented by N. American versions of Cantonese/Hong Kong style. And there's nothing wrong with that. I love "real" cantonese food and I love the food that Chinese immigrants created in N. America. It's delicious too. But there is SOO much more from the other regions.
      I guess that's what happens when you have a couple thousand years head start in cooking in a more sophisticated way....lol.

      @phucanhmraz, The same thing happens when frying porkchops; If the outer membrane is not scored or removed (depending on one's preference), the middle of the meat will will buckle up, and it won't fry evenly.

    It is interesting to see a Chinese method of making steak. The seasonings are essentially the same as I do but with the oyster sauce. I also found it noteworthy that Chinese cooking doesn't serve steak at the rareness that you typically find in Western cuisine. It is good to mention as you did to finish to your own preferred temperature. For me personally, I prefer medium rare steak and that's what I will go for when I try this. Thanks as always for the recipes and touching interaction with your family.

It can take the worst steak and in 15 minutes is the tenderest beef you've ever had! I sincerely miss him. Every Christmas he would have a party at the restaurant. He would invite friends and family for Prime Rib. He had the best recipe. Luckily, he came to my restaurant and taught me the secrets to that perfect prime rib. We honor his memory by cooking Prime Rib with his recipe every Christmas. Its just about a month away for the holiday! I can't wait!
