It's Lan, so I will watch.

I have made this at home several times before watching this video. It is so good and ATK really does a great job. The ONLY thing I do different is to go through a much more elaborate and classic preparation for the chinese chili oil. But, that being said, I was afraid they would not put in the fermented/dried mustard greens in the pork topping, AND THEY DID IT. It really is essential and there really is no substitute. Despite living in a highly Asian subdivision of Seattle...those mustard greens sometimes are unavailble in the Chinese supermarket. Order them online! No substitute for the black vinegar or the toasted sesame seed paste either. "Shoaxing Wine"...dry sherry does just fine, but it tends to be a bit more expensive.

Love the chemistry between these two! Fun video thanks!

I was on the recipe testing for this dish!!!! I make this all the time with veggie sausage for the meat

Lan is outstanding and the recipe looks absolutely delicious

Dan Dan actually means “carrying pole”, it is called Biandan in Mandarin, but People in Sichuan call it Dandan. Dandan mian used to be a street food in Sichuan province. Sellers carried the noodle with a carrying pole and sold it on streets. That is how it got such a name, carrying pole noodle. BTW, Mian means flour, Miantiao means noodle, but people just call noodle Mian for short. Dandan Mian is a Sichuan local food, you can hardly find it outside Sichuan province.

@@tommihommi1 Shenzhen is the silicon valley of China, so it is also a city of immigration. People go there for money, you don't have to force people to go somewhere that has many opportunities of earning money. I guess Shenzhen has a lot of people from Sichuan so perhaps Dandan mian is also popular there. BTW, BYD, DJI, Huawei, Xiaomi, Tencent, these big names' headquarters are all in Shenzhen.

Absolutely amazing personality and voice Lan Oi Dep wah !

This really captures the experience of Chinese cooking of needing a million different sauces even for simple dishes like Dan Dan Mien

Sichuan (aka "Szechuan") is one of the most complex & sophisticated cuisines I've encountered. On par with Thai food for heavenliness.

The chef is just wow. Once in a while you come across a master and Lan is one

Beautiful dish, I'll pickup the sweet wheat and sesame paste and I can't wait to make it. I like everyone at ATK although Lan and Bridget are my favorites, I wish we'd see more of them. They have great chemistry on camera and I appreciate their wonderful energy and sense of humor.

Lan's been with ATK's Cook's Illustrated for more than a decade and is currently a Senior Editor. That's her day job, but you can see her toiling away in the background of both ATK and Cook’s Country TV shows for a number of seasons. In 2017, she joined the cast of Cook's Country and moved to the ATK TV show in 2018, so she's been a part of the cast for several years. You can still see her occasionally in the ATK back kitchen when she's not presenting a recipe - that's where all the real cooking for the show takes place.

Even w/out the pickled mustard greens, this dish is so full of flavours and tasty.

Obsessed with dandan atm

WoW !!!

This looks so good. I don’t know if I can find the fermented vegetable that mixed in the meat. I will try this dish without the fermented veggies if I can’t find it.

My tongue is definitely vibrating

I made it a minute in and stopped, I couldn't break the feeling I was watching rescue 911 and it was the 90's again.

Tongues vibrating a little bit lol! I always love the taste of Sichuan pepper!

It's funny how everyone makes them a little different. I usually stick to Fuchsia Dunlops version but will try this one the next time. If I ever had to pick a last meal it would definitely by Dan Dan noodles.

OMGOSH YUM ❤

I gotta get that fermented wheat paste. You had me at umami bomb.

I've never eaten this dish, but I've heard it raved about on the Try Guys YT Channel (Keith in particular loves it). It looks amazing!

Dandanmian is my absolute favorite dish, I even make a big batch of chili oil...but the sui mi ya cai I can't find anywhere in Rome! The owner of my favorite shop gave me a sub which is made from the stem of the mustard. They sell in tiny little packets used for snacking and they're so good too!

I feel like Dan should of been the co-host on this one just to be festive 🎉

I Lan-ed a lot! Excellent recipe.

The "Sichuan chile powder" is - if you look - Sichuan chile FLAKES - so that's what to pick up from store if you don't have it...Asian cooking websites say they're distinctive (vs Italian red pepper flakes), hence a distinctive part of the Sichuan 'flavor profile'. Upshot - get 'em

Where do you buy thr noodles and what brand, name?

Can't find all the ingredients. But looks delicious 😋

I don't know what funky is supposed to mean, but dang I need it.

I'm assuming "sweet wheat paste" means "Tian mian jiang". I've never seen it labelled as the former before.

Cooking with out heat/fore?

Very nice and a dish I’d love to sample. But I cannot go buy all these ingredients from a who-knows-where source and use them once or twice, thereafter to rot in my fridge. Would love to find this in a restaurant. Story of my cooking life😖
