I LOVE the way Claire describes the food. She's so descriptive, and I love listening to her. And, of course, everything that Aaron makes looks amazing. 🥰
I LOVE Sichuan peppercorns, especially when they're toasted. They have an almost citrus-like brightness and aroma. This dish used to be intimidating, but you've shown how simple it can be!
Aaron, you crack me up. Sorry, your show was too late, I already threw the play station out the window. Claire, I just love your wonderful commentaries and how you make everything sound so good lol. I'm trying this Dan Dan noodles for the first time too, thanks to you both!
Just found you guys. The “don’t worry about it,” makes me grin every time 😂 loved this simplified version. One of the very few Chinese dishes I can get my husband to eat!
Just this week i was thinking about the 마라불닭볶음면. It's not available in my country anymore and i have always missed the taste. Now you make this video about sichuan noodles! FINALLY i can enjoy Mala again! Thank you so much you have changed my life!
For those who dont cook with alcohol, apple juice is good substitute for chinese rice wine. Its does the same. Although Chinese rice wine is used in many dishes you cant tell the difference to be honest. Especially when there are a lot of strong flavours involved.
Hello, I just Receive your cookbook today and it's amazing!!! Thank you very much!!! I have a lot of Korean cookbook but yours is very nice and very simple to use! I love you Channel and I Hope you Will show us a lot of new recepts. Big Hello from Switzerland!!!
We will be making this dish tonight!! But: can you please share a recipe for Crispy Garlic Chili Oil? It is sooo expensive!! $11-$45 for a small jar in the USA (seriously!!)!!
Arron, I'm sorry to hear about losing your Playstation. But thank you for giving the rest of us the heads up. Claire! Give the boy back his Playstation.
I’ve seen 10s of dozens of Dan Dan noodles videos. The game changer here was sichuan peppercorn oil!! Omg ❤ GAME CHANGER!! How did I never know of its existence? Best tip ever. Thank you 😊
I love this and will try it but noodles are ruining my life! Hey aaron, i trusted you! Now i have the impossible decision between jjamppong and jjajangmyeon. It's got complicated 😂
I love these noodles, tried them years ago at Monkey King noodle shop in Dallas, TX. So freaking good! Thanks for the recipe, I hope it's as good as it is at the shop.
I lived in Sichuan for about a year and fell in love with the food there. Now, that I've left Asia, I can't go a week without some Sichuan food and dandan noodles is definitely the dish I most often cook.
New to this channel and I love Claire's review of Aaron's cooking, lol 😅 I REALLY need make a trip to the local Asian market to pick up some of these ingredients! Then I can make some yummy for my tummy! 😋
Love your Eminem reference! This looks awesome, I've been watching you for about a month, tried a bunch of new noodles and preparations thanks to you. Gotta try this one! Thank you!!
You recipes are so delicious looking, easy and fast to make! And you're so funny, always saying husband gets in trouble if he does this or doesn't do that! Hahahaha! I always check your channel for easy and fast ideas and my husband loves it!
Aaron, you are not supposed to use the little black seeds that come with the Sichuan peppercorns. They are bitter. The outer reddish wrappers are what you use. This recipe looks great! I will try it.
I love you so much Aaron, the way you talk & your personality. I love ALL your food videos. I made two of your noodles recipes & kimchi fried rice. They all turned out SO GOOD. I LOVE kimchi fried rice & now i don’t have to drive 45 minutes to this one place to get it. It’s even better than that place. Please don’t go anywhere Aaron
I would like to point out that asian seasame seed pasted is made with toasted seasame seeds while tahini is normally it is made with raw hulled sesame seeds and there is a large flavour difference. My local thai market has canned Pigeon Fermented Mustard Green 140g and they are pretty good, but we preffer Leng Heng Seasoning Pickled Green Mustard with chilli, NOT from amazon uk they cost X3 the price of elsewhere online.
My wife is also a gamer so no worries about the Playstation. But I still make her amazing food that looks beautiful because I love her. She is the Claire to my Aaron lol. I love cooking for her, she loves eating it, and she even does the dishes!
Just made this tonight for dinner, oh man this might be my favourite new dish! Couldn’t find the Yacai you had but found some pickled mustard greens and still delicious.
Hi Aaron. I love watching you cook and am anxious to try some of the simple dishes. Here in the US, some 'Chinese' buffet's serve peanut butter chicken. The sauce is like a creamy peanut butter served with slices of fried chicken. I want to replicate the sauce. Can you help? Many Blessings!
I love your microwave that's cool. I like how you whisper MSG, that's funny in the United States a lot of people frown on it but I use it anyway cause it helps everything taste better. I like how you say trust me and don't worry about it that's funny and I do trust you. I love this channel. I hope you're enjoying that Play Station!
Hi Aaron! Bought the cookbook. Love your channel. 😊The sesame paste on screen looks like sesame peanut paste, not sesame paste in the description box. Does it matter whichever one is used?
I can't tell you how great it is to live in an American city with such great international markets. All I had to do was just look and go. In places where English is not the language people are eager to help me learn and get what I want and need. I just wish Korean pears were cheaper LOL!
My Dan Dan takes 2+ hours to make. You’re so fast! I don’t think you’re making it like I am Aaron. Of course, wine drinking is part of my cooking time. I’ve rewritten all of my recipes to include it. LOL JK, I’ve been making this for 30+ years. Mine may not be authentic but I found it in the Seattle Times newspaper all those years ago! One of my favorite dishes!
i have your cook book its awesome i brought it on amazon love your food i even got myself a rice cooker i hope u guys do a dessert cook book and a drink cook book u guys are cool thanks for making this book its fantastic keep being awesome
Aaron, I loved the recipe and I'm sure I will love the dish. But I don't have sesame paste, only Tahini and peanut butter. Can I use one of this options?
I've actually had Dan Dan Noodles before and loved it!!! I HAVE to try your recipe now because it seems creamy and I think it would be a beautiful mouth feel. Thank you for sharing❤️
This is one of my favorite Chinese dishes... Next to Sichuan chicken, Kung Pao chicken and anything with shrimp or Mongolian beef or pepper steak or 1000 other things LOL 🤣
