While living overseas I got to experience my fair share of unique foods and meat cotton candy is one of them. Meat floss (肉鬆) is a savory snack that was a staple during my time there, and for the first time I tried cooking it for myself. Turns out turning meat into cotton candy isn’t easy, but it certainly was a fun one!

Quick tip: Use pestle and mortar to pound the pork and the beef (after you've cooked them) until they turns into finely thin strips just like the chinese one. It's pretty hard and your arms gonna get tired but that way you'll have a more fluffy textures. This is a pretty traditional way to make it and us Vietnamese people eat it everyday with sandwich or sticky rice

this is ''machaca'' a mexican dried beef, used normaly with scrambled eggs, diced potatoes etc. i never knew vietnamese people had something similar, glad to know!

Vietnamese here. My parents would take some sticky rice and sprinkle pork fu brand pork floss onto our breakfast and that shit was amazing. I've always wanted to make this so thank you Max for the video!

@mosambiqu3 Год назад

That sounds amazing

@Bloodshotistic Год назад

@mosambiqu3 The better version was when they deep fried the rice to make it crunchy and puffed and would add a sticky syrup made of sugar and fish sauce to coat the rice before the pork floss was put on top of it. 👌

Us Mexicans also have this version of “Meat floss” but we call it Machaca and it’s made out of beef. Usually prepared with scrambled eggs, sautéed grilled veggies like tomato, onion, serrano peppers and can be eaten with flour or corn tortillas, served with refried beans and slices of fresh avocado ;)

@kylejohnson3647 Год назад

Tip (as a Chinese myself): always start with cold water when boiling meat to remove impurities. We don’t really boil fillets mignon that often though; often times it’s brisket, ribs, or chuck tender (yes), which can be extremely tender and flavorful if cooked properly🔥

@MaxtheMeatGuy Год назад

Great tip thank you!

@mangoforkids1263 9 месяцев назад

hi max, when I make beef floss (or as my friends and I call it, beef fiberglass or jerky dust/floss) i use some eye round and boul it in water with soy sauce and other seasonings, then when its soft, i put it in a mortar and pestle and mash it, then put it in a pan and add some of the liquid which I reduced along with sugar and salt and whatever else it needs. maybe you could try it like this one day?

@elliotb1795 Год назад

"Boil filet mignon, roll out the meat, put the meat in the bread maker." These are some of the least likely phrases I'd expect to hear when making food. Good job Max! 👏

They used to sell a beef version on the ice cream truck in my neighborhood. It was sold in cans that were identical to chewing tobacco(dip) cans. Between that and the bubblegum sticks shaped like cigarettes(that you could blow on and powdered sugar would come out to look like smoke), they definitely were NOT trying to get kids hooked on tobacco products…

@JollyJoshums Год назад

It is funny you say that the texture reminds you of beef jerky, because you can get something very similar (at least in appearance) to what you made at gas stations in the jerky section. It comes in a little container that looks like a can of chewing tobacco, but it is looks almost identical to what you made, though i am assuming yours tastes better.

In Nigeria it's a traditional dish unique to our tribe the hausa we just basically cook the meat add ghost peppers some salt season it then use mortar and pestle to pound it then put our pot on fire add a little bit of oil and stir fry it the once it turns to Golden brown it's ready we do the same to fish goat cow chicken and all meats the taste is mind blowing

We also have this dish in Serbia 🇷🇸! It’s called “duvan čvarci”. Duvan=tobacco, čvarci=floss. The original čvarci are basically pork bits that are left over from cooking pork fat. I don’t really know why we call pork floss duvan čvarci because it’s totally a different thing from normal čvarci.
