The interesting thing is that for us Chinese folk, fried rice is almost always considered a full meal. It's our favourite way of cooking leftovers. So while there are specific dishes like Yang Zhou fried rice, Hokkien fried rice, or even just the typical Chinese takeaway fried rice, for us it is made differently every time depending on what's left in the fridge from yesterday's dinner. My personal favourites are Char Siu or Lap Cheong egg fried rice with a hint of chili oil.

As a korean here are some final tips for the fried rice: 1. use a scissor to cut the nori 2. use salted und roasted nori, it's called "gim" (김) 3. the fried rice should be roasted on a pan to finish. there has to be a sticky, roasted, almost brown/black bottom. that's how korean cook and enjoy a common fired rice 👍

Korean flavors seem to vibe very well with chefs and people who cook for a living, because the flavors are very strong and bold and cuts through palette fatigue. Dishes with milder flavors are still delicious and may be the favorite of someone who doesn't taste things all day every day, but for a lot of cooks, they need that punch of spice/acid/fermentation Korean foods seem to have.

Hey, note about cooking with freshly done rice. You can totally do it, I've done it, it's talked about in "The Wok" from Kenji Lopez. In my experience as soon as the rice is done cooking you need to dump it out onto a tray straight away so a lot of that moisture steams off in the first couple of minutes. It sticks way less. Day old rice works better though, no question about it.

@mhordijk0871 28 күн бұрын

Yep. Been doing it like that with good result. Just boil an hour before using it. On a tray with some parchment paper and break it up and toss it about a few times, in the first 20 minutes. When it is cold, it is old enough. Day old works better. 'Frech' tastes better.

Correct, no chili on traditional Cantonese fried rice because Cantonese people used to be highly "allergic" to chili. In fact traditionally the cuisine, is more on the blander side not as bland as some other cuisines because it's still quite flavorful. But lot's of dishes don't much spice. The standard seasoning salt, sugar, white pepper (depends on family), soya sauce (light and sometimes dark), and fermented bean pastes. But depending on the dish, spices are use generously, like roast pork belly. If you hear Cantonese people boasts about retaining original taste, because spices are not used often including chilies. But ginger is the god spice in Cantonese cooking. Uncle Roger's fried rice is the Malaysian Chinese style which does come from the Cantonese style but it's Southeast Asia so chilies are inevitable. So, what I meant by allergic to chilies. It's because of the concept of yeethai or hot air. Eat to much food that gives you hot air, you become sick. There is also cold air, same thing happens but with cold foods. Chilies are by far the number 1 enemy because it's spicy gives heat to your body. If you grew up with Canto parents you will hear them yelling "YEETHAI AH!" It's a complicated mess some foods you don't expect to have hot air has hot air an example, chocolate. So you will even see some families don't even use white pepper.

Koreans pronounce ㄱ like a gentle "k" at the start of a sentence/speech, or when sounding out syllables. Otherwise ㄱ is pronounced like a "g". Due to this unique behaviour it's not possible to convert it precisely into Roman (abc) letters. Both are fine I think, but g is used in the standardized Romanisation which helps to separate it from ㅋ which always sounds like a hard "k", and is romanised as "k". 안녕!

@@user-mn2ju7tv8fPlain American buying Kimchi in a jar. Yeah I can see why you think Kimchi the cheapest. If you buy A baguette for 7$ in Korea, Korean people wouldn't think that's expensive, but for a French person It would be considered that is quite expensive enough.

Andy, watching your videos is part of my pre-bedtime relaxation. You’re so chill in the kitchen and your cooking rocks. I’ve been subscribed for a while and I get a lot out of your techniques. It’s reconnected me to cooking as a hobby. I love what you do brother - and I bought your cookbook tonight as a way of saying thanks for all the great content you produce. Special request - a French Canadian comfort food delicacy - Smoked Duck Poutine - would love to see your take on it!

For Chinese people, fried rice is actually a main dish and not a side dish. You're usually pretty informed about most things Andy, but had to correct you in this one. As far as I'm aware, it's only really treated as a side dish in western countries because rice is a side dish in western countries. Rice is always the main dish to Chinese in the rice eating regions of China because 'to eat' is actually 'to eat rice' in Chinese. I said rice eating regions because areas where rice doesn't grow well, noodles or bread are eaten more commonly as the main dish. Chinese fried rice always has protein unless it's for a vegetarian or from a Chinese restaurant in a western country.

That's not 100% true. Fried rice is nearly always accompanied with other fried dish or other type of dishes. A normal Chinese family would not have fried rice as the only food to eat during a meal. Based on that, it is actually correct to make it less seasoned or make the other dishes less seasoned.

Chinese people don't eat anything by itself we always have multiple dishes. All those dishes are mains we don't really do sides. @@ausy705

@michaelu8474 19 күн бұрын

Okay let's add a bit more context. Chinese people almost never eat one plate of food for a meal, maybe except the northern regions when they are eating noodles. They always have other dishes to go with the carbs(which is the fried rice in this case), a plate of veggies, and a plate of protein. So the idea of a main dish isn't really a thing. The idea of side dishes are clear tho, and those would be something quick and easy to whip up on a plate, such as fermented vegetables, or some sort of appetizer, and usually small in portion size.

I'm korean and I have never heard of putting gochujang in kimchi fried rice in my life. Kimchi fried rice usually tastes light, while using gochujang gives little bit of heavy flavor and sweetness. But there is no absolute rules for every recipe. I will definitely try Andy's style. Thank you for your recipe!
