@@Irina-iw5ji thought he was gonna fling it and giggle / laugh (which you might expect from a child his age) but he was so earnest and sincere about helping mom. adorable
Baby Adam was like "never let them know your next move" coz I thought he wanted to eat the cucumber like I DID NOT expect him to help garnish the dish 🤣 so cuteee
I love watching you cook Vietnamese food!! I watch my mom cook all the time and you make me think of watching her every time! I also love hearing you speak Vietnamese! My mom wasn’t allowed to teach us when we were kids because my father wouldn’t allow it. But I love hearing her speak it!
@@brookedoesstuff6357 Tell me about it. His reason that he told my mom was that he didn’t want us talking behind his back. And he was right in a sense. He was abusive, and he wasn’t fluent in Vietnamese. So we could have planned for an escape and he wouldn’t have known. But that was a lame and paranoid excuse.
When she carried him and he was all serious and composed is not because he was calm, he was learning all this time. He is becoming the sous chef in that kitchen
Absolutely love that her children know her native tongue. IMO so much is lost in languages when the future generations don't speak the original language of their parents.
Most immigrants kids know their parents native language and asian people truly don't have to worry that their language spoke by billions of people could disappear
That’s what happened to me! I’m Mexican and my family is from Mexico but I grew up not knowing spanish 😭 because my family were all trying their hardest to learn English while I was growing up so they spoke primarily English, so I got no Spanish treatment when I was younger…But now I grew up and learned quite a lot now!
The one thing I like about you is that you actually share your recipes instead of pretending to share your recipe like other RU-vidrs! And you’re real, too - Good job!!
whoaa the complexity thanku sm for sharing traditional vietnamese food with us in sucha approachable manner gurl! Adam helping out at the end warmed my heart♥❤❤
hi there, I must say.......... I never thought we could use Rice Paper for Banh Cuon LOL I always thought its that fancy rice crepe they scrape off after being steamed >_< this is way easier! thank you for the recipe! Time to make my Vietnamese parents surprised and angry at the same time.
Technically that what rice paper is, a fancy steamed rice crepe. It just gets dried after steaming the first time. If you make them fresh, you set them on an oiled surface and make your rolls.
Adam trying to help is just too adorable 🥰 Is there something else I could use in place of the mushrooms? I’m severely allergic.. Thank you for sharing your recipes! Vietnamese is one of my favorite cuisines 😊
Then you should go to Hochiminh city to try the bánh cuốn there! The southern style, it’s the one she made in this video, totally different from the norther style you had
I use the smaller banh trang cause they tend to stretch whenever it’s that wet. I found the big ones too be too much banh lol I add oil to the water when I drop the rice paper in and just make sure they don’t stick together in the water! No steaming needed and it tastes just as great!
"Troi Oi!!!" 😍aka OMG...using rice paper for the Banh Cuon wrapper is brilliant! Mind is blown. I did not watch the original video, but am so impressed with this hack. Cam on em! Peace & Mahalo!
I cooked Pho Bo and Cha Go for the first time 3 days ago. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it turned out. I still have leftover ingredients from these. Good thing your video was the first thing I saw as I opened youtube today. Gonna try this one later!
Hello, with ricepaper you dont have to do one at a time like this because it takes so much time. You can put a little oil in the water first and put the ricepaper one by one in the water then. Remember dont put a lot ricepaper at a time. The oil helps them not to stick together. Believe me. I had done this a lot during the quarantine in Vn 😂😂😂Love from Vn ❤❤
I never cooked anything even after watching all her videos 😭😭😭 i just watch her videos for fun! The only one recipe vlogger( i don't know what to call it) That doesn't make cooking boring!
I think my favorite way to learn about other cultures is by watching people cook. Food is one of the most human things that bind us all together and seeing how different cultures make food is so amazing to see. It’s like this invaluable and immense level of knowledge that’s special in a way I can’t explain it. It’s a beautiful art and unifying aspect of humanity. Food culture is human culture. And it’s existence is priceless imo
Thank you for this! I moved from CA to SC there are Vietnamese restaurants but they don't serve this dish. The videos I've searched shows people making homemade wraps, I just don't have time for that. Thanks again❣
Thank you, I'm from Spain, in extreme love with your food, all the Asian food for me are delicious, may be in my previous life I live in Asia, where I don't know, but GREAT RECIPE, I learn from a Chef from Laos, something like yours, but my mind make do so many different fillings for the rice paper, is so good. Usually I chop the algae, I learn today with the scissors, Thank you for that too, handsome chef helping you.
This is the meal I had! I stopped at a Vietnamese grocery store one morning going from one jobsite to another and picked something that looked like it would be good. I'd never been to a Vietnamese grocer before nor had whatever I picked up for lunch. Lunchtime came and it was delicious. Problem was I ruined the label, and I had no idea what I ate. I just stopped somewhere in passing. BANH CUON NHAN THIT! Thank you, I now know what to order. And now, I may be able to recreate it myself! Happy dance!
I find it strange you don't have a rice paper holder and you instead use a bowl of water. You have every other piece of kitchen equipment so it seems strange you don't have one, any particular reason?.
In normal, paper holder only using on restaurant. In family, we using bowl of water. Ricepaper has many type, we have a type non-watering, just wrap & roll, especially veggie still wet. Another method is sray water by using spray bottle. You can using mini size (comestic) spray bottle to spray water on rice paper when you go outside.
Ok Banh Cuon is my favorite dish, but there is NO WAY i was going to make those rice crepes over a cheesecloth and steamer basket. This is brilliant!!!!!!
