High five to my bruv Hampton at Hybrid Calisthenics ! Thanks for strengthening these wok muscles :D / @hybridcalisthenics
The Stir-Frying motion is a must if you want to master fried rice. In this video, I tried to master it using a cantonese wok and a wok ladle. It's all about the coordination of the right hand that holds the ladle, and the left hand that grips the wok handle using a grip cloth. This video is part of my Fried Rice Series where I am trying to master Fried Rice at a Restaurant Level. More information about NordVPN / nordvpn

I would suggest you practice with ice instead of rice. That way if you screw up your grip you will only get your hand a little cold instead of a burn. Also might consider doing some wrist and arm weightlifting practice. There are a lot of methods to do so.

ALEX listen to me. The reason it looks like youre having trouble with it is because you are jerking your hand back at the wrong time. The wok is large, so it takes longer to have the rice move from the center, to the top portion, where you can flip it from (compared to a smaller pan) it became easier with the ladle because you push the rice back to help compensate for the wrong timing. Do it slightly slower, actually wait until the rice is pooled at the back and youll see how much less strength and effort it takes. Its simple mechanics. Like loading a ball onto a catapult, but you are letting the arm loose before the ball is in place

At the end I shook his hand and it felt like he was gonna crush my hand. In high school I played volleyball and was the setter. I thought I had decent strength, but shaking the chef's hand shocked me. You wouldn't know a chinese chef has grip of death power.

I don't have the equipment to make use of a Cantonese wok, but I have been inspired to work on my wok technique with a Northern/long-handled wok as well. In particular developing a more _efficient_ technique-I've tended to lift the wok up like I would a lightweight sauté pan because I already have that in muscle memory, so I end up tiring myself up _so quickly_. ... the multitudes of rice grains that have fallen to the floor can attest to my practise time.

For those of you thinking about attempting this, be very careful to not overdo your training. Repetitive stress injuries are very real and you could develop carpal tunnel from repeating these motions for extended periods of time.

Alex! I absolutely love your videos and this series is no exception. I make fried rice at least once a week in my wok and it's so cool to see this taken to the extreme! C'est beau!

Cantonese call this “拋鑊” which translate to "Tossing the wok". Never heard of "翻鍋", maybe they confused the words, they do sound a bit similar. Edit It soon became apparent to me that I can't speak putonghua.

翻锅 is what it's called in mandarin (mainland China) and also this technique is not specifically Cantonese, it's the industry standard all over China.
