I am glad you are presenting this video, as a Chinese from a different country it is highly respected that you have made every effort to explore culture. You are not only able to speak Mandarin fluently, but also have the support from your parents that really builds your self esteem through encouragement and education. I did not have this privilege in my younger years and am happy to see that the future generation is supporting their children in every positive way. Bless your parents to have such an open mind and relationship with you, I was not as fortunate because of the generation gap. I will say that the sons, daughters and any future generation is getting the same support now as you do from your parents and also your friends. The mindset from the older generation, which is me has changed and I see it exactly like your parents do.

Blondie & Parents, I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate your being open to and exploring Chinese food as best you can during these times. As a Chinese person raised outside of China, this channel has been a wonderful way to explore China & Chinese regional cuisines which are pretty much non-existent in Western countries. I appreciate the efforts to identify, explain, and cook them. Along with the explanations that define and highlight certain regional cuisines. Thank you for sharing them!

@@BlondieinChina You will probably need more than a lifetime to consume all the food that China has to offer. :) To put it in perspective, about 30 years ago, I browsed thru a cookbook on Chinese cuisine written by a western lady and in her preface, she mentioned that there were (at that point of time) at least 80,000 dishes. Over 3 decades or so, the number obviously must have exceeded 100,000. Depending on the number of dishes you try a day, it will take you long long time to try them all. You do your math.

Your parents are truly amazing and you are lucky to have them! I love how open they are of trying new things and exploring different cultures. No matter if I show my parents Japanese, Korean or Chinese cuisine, it's all "Asian food" to them and they have no interest in learning further. Same with my language learning. I'm currently at an A2 level in Korean and my mom the other day asked me "What does this say?" And held up a box with Mandarin writing 😅 I love my parents, but I think you are truly blessed to have such open-minded and good-natured parents. It is a joy to see. Lovely video, cheers 🧡

When I was young, I remember having a friend over my home for meals on occassions. He was white and everytime we served him steamed rice, he just wants to add a ton of soy sauce over his rice. It just completelyed baffled my family. When I grew older, I would visit Indian restaurants and ask for a huge bowl of Raita and just add all that over my basmati rice and that would just baffle the Indian server. Life is great.
