Thanks my grandma made jook with ox tail when i was a kid and wanted a recipe, appriciatw the great start

Mid-Westener here! 🤚I want to thank you and your dad for making this video for all of us. I finally made it today and it is delicious. I put too much meat in mine but I will do a better ratio next time! I am Caucasian and have had many German/French/American dishes growing up. Because that is all my family knows. I have always loved Asian cuisine and it is very hard to find a restaurant that even makes Congee. Congee was a dish I had always dreamt of being able to enjoy. Now that I am 30, I am making more and more dishes I have always wanted to try. This was awesome and very wholesome for me. Thank you again! ❤

Yes, the Toisan Wah spoken at the end was the icing on the cake. Now I know what the 13th means!

So happy to see a KZread channel sharing Cantonese dishes with an ABC translator 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Growing up in Hong Kong, different restaurants prepare this differently in terms of the meat. Some places prepare it like it's shown here, but plenty of other places will cook a pork shoulder in a salted brine with some seasoning (I am guessing similar to 卤水 but without the sugar and the soy sauce), then shred it after cooked. Sort of like pulled pork in American cuisine. Then they will add the already cooked and seasoned pork to the congee, together with the egg, heat up, then serve. Also, if you get the century egg (why was it ever translated to century egg when the words literally mean "leather egg"??), it's actually easier to cut with dental floss or thin kitchen twine because a good century egg will have a gooey, soft, yolk, making it messy and difficult to cut with knives.

@@sansajune8004 That's a really difficult thing to do, maybe google will have some suggestions. Texture is easier to describe than taste, the texture of the egg white (black) part is jelly-like, the yolk texture is reminiscent of the eggs in ramen.

Thanks for the tips on making congee, 1) add a bit of oil to the rice for a silkier finish, and no crust on the bottom of the pot, 2) bring water to a boil before adding the rice, 3) don't over stir to avoid a crust, 4) whisk the congee after 30 minutes to cook faster. Love these little nuggets.

Just to let you know that your dad is a great cook. I always learning Cantonese food since my grandparents were originally from Guangdong, China. They came to Malaysia since 1920s. It's fascinating to learn it much more from your dad. I do recommended this channel to all my family and friends when ever they want to cook Cantonese food. I'm glad to come across your channel and I personally would like to address your dad as my Sifu too.

Made with prawns, fish paste boiled duck egg, garlic chives and chili sauce garnish.. amazing 🙏🏻

Just wanted to say, the whisking hack is a GAME CHANGER. The texture turned out great. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

Love the little bit of Taishanese at the end of the video. Reminds me of my departed parents. Miss hearing that. Thanks, Lau family!

Thank you for this channel for explaining everything in specific detail! I grew up with little understanding of certain ingredients that my parents and grandparents used for these recipes. This channel feels like an archive of history and nostalgic meals. Thanks to these videos, I feel like I can make these traditional dishes for future generations to come.

Love your dad so much and he reminds me of my grandpa. I love that the videos are a blend of Cantonese and English!!!Growing up, my grandpa taught me so much about cooking and he also ran a Chinese restaurant. Thank you for bringing culture, joy and your family to so many!!!

Thank you, Daddy Lau for the congee hacks! I’ll be sure to let the water boil first before adding the rinsed marinated rice. And whisking to break up the rice grains is a genius move! Btw my mum’s version of peh tan chok uses shredded chicken, century egg and dried bean sheets (aka tofu skin) for added texture.

Love your dad even after retirement he can teach us how to make genuine cantonese dishes. cherish your dad, cause he did all this...for YOU.

Love your KZread channel so much. Love the mix of the Chinese and English and the occasional Toisan.

Lau fam shout out from the Bay Area. Just made it and it came out legit. Love how you are spreading the Canto culture. Keep it up

My lesson for this decade: use pliers for dried scallop. Why didn’t I think of that???? No more avoiding the use of dried scallops! THANK YOU DADDY LAU!!!

Jook is my comfort food. I make it when I’m feeling under the weather. In fact, I had ginger chicken jook yesterday. I used to be super self-conscious of eating Cantonese food growing up, but as I’ve grown older, I’ve learned to cast off other people’s yuck to embrace my yum.

I absolutely love pork and egg congee. I cook this for my family whenever someone is sick. Alongside phở it is our comfort food. Seeing a master chef make it is a privilege, thank you. I will adopt chef Lau's techniques for my next pot of congee.

I just made the congee following Uncle Lau cooking methods..so yummy. Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Omg I was actually going to request this because it’s my favourite!! I could have asked my mom but these videos are great when I forget how to make something. I’m so excited I’m going to make this tomorrow. Thank you for making these videos

I luv everything about this series, genious!

Found some pei dan last week in Germany and was sooo excited. Made the congee tonight and it turned out soo well, must say though, the lady in the shop was totally confused with a foreigner getting excited about the eggs. Thanks for the recipes, tried several already including the Char siu and am so happy to have found your site. This is a very happy Hong Kong (German) girl now

Papa Lau's way of teaching is by far the easiest way for me to learn and retain the information. I absolutely love congee but no one in my family makes. So after watching your chicken congee vid, I'm probably the first to do so. And my first try was great! Every step of the way I hear his "don't stir too much" and "put it in medium fire" and "let it be" 😆 Cooking is intuitive, and sometimes I have to add more water, or put less rice, etc. Which is what makes the "how's and why's" important. I'm gonna do my best to make even better congee. Thank you to your family 😋🤗

Love your video!! Thank you Daddy Lau for showing us how to make this congee, you are such a cheerful person. Respect!!

I work as a home care nurse. One of the families I worked with was Vietnamese. Grandma (I even called her that) used to serve me breakfast right along with the family just about every morning. One of my favorite things she made (after her amazing chicken pho) was congee with century egg. I'd never had century egg before, or congee for that matter, and actually thought it was mushrooms until I noticed the yolk. It was so good! She used a lot of black pepper in hers. I can't remember, but I think the meat was chicken. I don't work with the family anymore, and I dearly miss Grandma's cooking.

I LOVE jok! THANK YOU for the lesson!

I love this family ❤️ I’m having congee with century egg right now! Yummy 😋

My favourite dish. Thanks for sharing.

lovely and delicious! I watch these both for comfort and for technique, and I’m curious: what’s Papa Lau’s ginger peeling technique? It always looks very smooth before it’s minced-is the skin rubbed off somehow? Peeling ginger is always a drag!

omg i learned something new, never knew we can add oil to the rice to make it silker! congee is such a comfort food, (not just when you're sick)

Yum! Thanks for sharing! This is my favourite!

GREAT recipe! Perfect!!!

Great recipe! I cook a rice porridge for my parents often so I'll try the special technique you shared. Hope to try this recipe with pork too 🙌

Made this recipe! It's fantastic! Classic dish!

I love this family!

This style of jook has been a staple for me for at least 60 years. My mother made huge pots of it for our family. I like to add diced pickled mustard root to add a bit of crunch and saltiness to it.

Porridge is the comfort food when feeling under the weather. Simple ingredients but delicious. Your dad is a terrific chef who adores his family.

I love your videos! So simple and easy to follow. Any plans to come out with a cookbook?

This is a favorite of mine. I’ve never made it on my own. I look forward to making it with the help of this video.

I love century egg. I find many westerners don’t like it cos by itself it’s a very strong sulphurous flavour. Don’t eat it straight. It has to go with something like congee or other condiments. Just like you would rarely eat blue cheese by itself, although you could.

I loved the whisk trick, really made the texture divine! Another "trick" I've learned from reading a bunch of recipes about this is to wash the rice the day before, then put it in a plastic baggie and stick it in the freezer for a night! Makes the cooking process faster c:

I always love eating congee when I'm not feeling well or it's cold outside which is a majority of the time in canada. Congee is soothing and delicious

My best friend's mom would make this when we were young. I was addicted.

My absolute favorite!!!

What a beautiful family!

Just made this & I love it

This has always been my favourite congee, excited to try making this recipe at home! Also, definitely going to try that genius whisk trick - my kids are congee fiends as well and whinge when it's taking too long to cook 😆

my favorite comfort food, love this channel!

Awesome recipe and your dad does such a wonderful job explaining everything. Love the video is spoken in Cantonese which makes it so authentic. I do have a question regarding the difference of preparing the rice in this video versus the chicken congee. What is the reason for soaking the rice in a small amount of water and oil after washing where as in the chicken congee was just washed and drained?

30min congee! I'm so in for trying this!!!

Only Daddy Lau has a pair of cooking pliers. Absolutly Brilliant!

Love congee with century egg... hope you can share recipes using century eggs... 😊
