Thank you, thank you. These are the dishes my mother would make for us as kids and because she passed away without teaching us how to cook them, I thought the tastes were lost to me. Your channel provides such recovered cultural knowledge for us! I hope your family knows what important work you are doing with this channel!
This was one of my favorite soups growing up. I'd made it a few times, but I'm often lazy about making soup in addition to dinner (also, not everyone in the household likes seaweed, since I'm the lone full Chinese person in a household with mostly Western tastes). I've experimented with seaweed-based soups from Japanese and Korean cuisine as well, but my first comfort is the foods I grew up eating. My grandmother would make this with broth from boiled pork bones (stored in abundance in our freezer for everyday soups), dried shrimp, strips of pork, tofu and seaweed. Simple, but delicious.
Anthony Bourdain (RIP😢) said the best way to learn about another culture is through their food. I believe that's true, and I LOVE these videos, I wanted to thank you and Daddy Lau for the cooking lessons and learning about your culture. PS: I like to support small businesses so I'm trying those noodles!
I'm a 53 year old jook sing. Thank you for sharing this. Please keep this channel going with traditional foods like this. This channel is a treasure for anyone that longs to experience their childhood again. For people my age it's near impossible to recreate perfectly because our parents are no longer with us. Keep up the fantastic channel and much love to the Lau family! Had to edit this comment. Looking at Cam please please please keep this channel going as long as possible. I feel that he will remember these experiences and one day take a good long hard look at these videos and want to carry on the legacy with his own experiences of your fusion cooking growing up. I'm sure you guys do fusion cooking. He will look at your creations as comfort foods for him as you will share with him what you guys enjoy from both cultures. He will not be the only one that experiences fusion food growing up. Hoping that he will carry on your channel and that the legacy will carry on for many generations because in all honesty your channel is very heartwarming. It makes me think of my parents and appreciate everything that they've done for me. Thank you for bringing everything back and hoping that this channel continues to carry on the experiences and the flavours of life! 👍
I made this vegetarian- silken tofu and shittake mushrooms instead of shrimp and pork, and veggie broth instead of chicken broth. SO GOOD! And I felt my 公公 and 婆婆 with me while I cooked it. Thank you Randy for (re)connecting so many Toisan/Chinese folks with our food and heritage. Love love love your channel!
i am not even Asian (from the Caribbean), and I appreciate the recipes here. Although there are other versions on other sites, your dad's recipes all come out great! thank you! Would love to here the life stories of your parents... especially when you all sit down to eat at the end.
This soup right here is my childhood! Thank you Lau family for sharing this recipe. I just made this for my family tonight and it was a hit! So heart warming and comforting!!
I just made your dad's beef with broccoli dish over the weekend and it was SO GOOD! I've made it my goal this year to try and make all the dishes you've posted on here. Thank you so much for the techniques. Wishing you, your dad and entire family good health and more happy meals together!
Greetings from Mexico! 🇲🇽 I love seaweed I usually eat it as a snack but I had no idea it was good for thyroid health too! I have thyroid issues so I’ll def be giving this recipe a try!! So glad i found this video thank you for sharing!
I truly am grateful for your amazing dad and each person behind this channel. I've been away from home for almost 2 years now (no thx to covid) and I've been missing my parents and homecooked food especially now that I'm pregnant. Just wondering, did your dad cook anything specific for your wife when she was pregnant? Would really love to get some food inspiration as I'm gearing up to nourish myself and the baby. The unity you have with your family reminds me of my own family where food is our love language.
很棒的视频，在冬天喝一碗温暖的紫菜汤能收获满满的幸福感！感谢你和刘先生的分享！祝你们新年快乐！ Really good video. Nothing is better than having a bowl of warm (seaweed) soup! Thanks for your and MR.LAU's sharing! Wish u all a happy new year!
Thank you for your uploads. Enjoy the canto dim-sum dishes like steamed pork ribs, taro cake, and turnip cake immensely. Will def try making these dishes during Chinese New Year. Can you please upload more dishes on dimsum delicacies like 蝦餃、韭菜煎餃，小籠湯包，珍珠丸子，鳳爪，芝麻湯圓，杏仁豆腐，燒仙草/仙草蜜，different soups 煲湯? Again thank you so much.
Love that you talked about yeet hay. I definitely grew up hearing about this from my Cantonese parents. I still hear it even though I'm now a doctor ;-). I think in Western medicine the closest thing I can think of to yeet hay is too much histamine or inflammation in the body from cortisol. It's not a perfect analogy but I think that it's sort of two different approaches to searching for the same truth. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the video. Reminded my of my late mom. She always cooks this soup and told us the nutritional value of this soup. I have no opportunity to learn it from her. While watching this video, i suddenly recall that she uses dry anchovies to cook the stock. Now i have learnt and i should start cooking this for my family.
Even though this probably won't get many hit (because people outside the community aren't as likely to search for it) I'm glad you did. Classic soup. Watching these videos is a.nice way to close the week.
I would skip the salt and add a bit more fish sauce for a lower sodium diet. I cook this way for my Korean seaweed soup, as well. Definitely skip soy sauce unless you want to darken your soup. LOL! And I highly recommend Lau Family switch from 3 Crabs brand to Red Boat fish sauce. The quality is worlds apart.
Um goiiiiii!!!! Thank you very much for the recipe, Papa Lau! This is literally one of my favourite soup growing up 🥺🥺☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’m glad that I found your channel!! So precious and informative!!
Finally, I found your dad recipe channel 🙌 I'm a Japanese live in Japan. I love HKG. I have been to there many times, and I ate Cantonese foods many times😄🍴😋🍚 Now I'm always studying English and Cantonese, and of course ! I wanted to learn the Cantonese dishes(Especially Dim Sam) 😄 Anyway, I want to say thank you for this channel🤗💕 好多謝你Papa🙏😄有難うございますお父さん😄🙏=ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU OTOUSAN😄🙏
Happy New Year Dear Friends. Wishing Both You And All At Home A Wonderful And Blessed New Year. Health And Happiness. Kindly Thank Daddy Lau for Sharing His Recipes. Greetings from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Really appreciate these videos since my mom doesn't want to show me how to make any of these. She says you just do it. I get that she doesn't measure anything but she won't even tell me the ingredients most of the time. I tried making seaweed soup before and it didn't taste right. Now I can try with this as a starting point and tweak for my family.
Hi Papa Lau, I would love to see you cook bitter melon soup and/or stir fry bitter melon with black beans! Instantly takes me back to my childhood! Thanks!!
Love these more everyday recipes! I’ve certainly incorporated these dishes into our rotation and just bought the right seaweed for this today. Excited to try it later this week!
I love all your recipes! I don't know why, but whenver I follow a recipe, it never comes out to the same quality as restaurant-quality food. These recipes always come out equal to if not better! Thank you for sharing all of your recipes! I don't know if you've done any videos on the chili oil they serve as a condiment in restaurants, but I'd love to learn how to make it! All the videos on youtube come out differently than in restaurant and I just can't figure out how to emulate that!
Really enjoyed this! Thank you for the excellent directions and the options for changing ingredients. I wish you would put one of those "Thanks" hearts under your video so I can make a contribution from that link.
Thank you so much for sharing this seaweed recipe. This another idea . Improve seaweed soup but always use tufo & mushroom only. This time I will try seaweed with napa cabbage. Thanks 👍
Throughout most of my life I've never been a fan of seaweed in dishes if it wasn't toasted. However, a couple of years ago my mom returned from China with some packets of instant seaweed soup and I was immediately hooked on it and I got really upset knowing that I can't find it where I live. But now, thanks to you guys, I'll finally be able to recreate that amazing dish at home! Sadly I'll have to omit some ingredients due to my mom's dietary restrictions (Buddhist diet) but I'll figure something out.
So i live close to the ocean and I can basically harvest all kinds of fresh seaweed. I know this recipe is made with dried seaweed, but here we also eat it right out of the ocean. What would you recommend? The sea lettuce here is great, but is more for stir frying with fish. There's also Wakame some people in the old days rook from Japan and now it's everywhere.
My first seaweed soup was miyeokguk, thanks to Maangchi! I enjoyed making it with ground beef out of laziness lol. Tofu if I had some. My dad would be the one to suggest adding shrimp or mussels. I do wish I grew up with this soup, but now I love that I can make it as an adult. I actually haven't made it in months, and this video just reminded me. Next on my list, with either beef or pork. Thank you yet again for another warming recipe, Lau family!
after watching your sesame oil video i realized i did this soup wrong as well. i used untoasted sesame oil for this and the ginger scallion sauce. can you please edit the ingridents to reflect toasted sesame oil for others? i tried this recipe twice already and both times came out really oily
Odd, I never knew about the significance of seaweed soup. I started making it with the duck broth and flesh leftover and added sweet potatoe noodles. Still love it, but will try Daddy Lau‘s recipe as well.
Hi from Australia I came across your Channel by luck as it magically was recommended I've stayed since :-) Lovely family videos We are lucky to have quite the choice here with different asian restaurants (many quite authentic/ can get relitively authentic) With your father's long history as a Chinese chef, the trends of Asian fusion restaurants around what are his thoughts? Oh no you ppl are butchering the combinations and flavours or a sense of pride that some Asian traditional dishes are used to create other unique dishes. Genuinely interested what the take on this is. thank you! 😊
