Hey guys, a few notes: 1. We didn’t want this to be our Nangbaorou recipe. It’s an awesome dish and we do still have to do some research on the topic in order to make sure it’s the *most* proper Xinjiang style. The topping was mostly an amalgamation of Nangbaorou recipes we found online adapted to work as a noodle topping. Honestly though? I loved it. 2. Xi’an Famous Foods appears to do a version of “Hongmen Lamb” (红焖羊肉)… braising the lamb with chilis and oil. You can definitely find this as a noodle topping in the Northwest, but we haven’t seen anyone add cumin to it. We were torn between showing that and this - while we know that hongmen lamb might be closer to what a Xi’an Famous Foods fan might want, we couldn’t exactly call it ‘cumin lamb’. “Cumin lamb with no cumin” would have the potential to be a bigger controversy than when I added a small dollop of LKK oyster sauce to thicken our homemade oyster sauce lol (we still get about a comment a week under that video about that). We *could’ve* just added a dash of cumin to hongmen lamb, but then how would we know how much of a cumin kick they use? It’d be much too speculative. 3. We enjoyed the process of converting the braise into a noodle topping anyhow. If you’re looking for a place to get creative, it’s a prime target. To be honest, it’s a little surprising to me that (1) given how much people in the West love Xi’an Famous Foods/Biangbiang Noodles and (2) how much people in the West love smashing together cuisines at the speed of business and seeing what sticks that we *haven’t* seen crazy Biangbiang noodle topping mashups. Personally, I’d be much more down for a bolognaise or cheese sauce Biangbiang than goddam fried chicken on a Guabao (“Bao Bun”) or whatever. Just remember though: the oil is non-negotiable. You *need* it to make it so the noodles aren’t just stuck in one clumpy mass. 4. So yeah, if you let me… I could probably talk your ear off about tomato and egg. It’s a classic dish though and obviously a lot of people - both Chinese and Westerners - love it, so… we’re the weird ones. 5. One think to know though about stewed tomato and eggs is that restaurants use *much* more tomato than egg - it’s basically like a tomato sauce. On the top left in the Food Ranger clip at 0:20 you can see the restaurant’s stewed tomato and egg - definitely looks a bit different. That said, that particular restaurant’s quite famous and their tomato topping’s real distinctive. We do want to cover stewed tomato and egg in isolation one of these days, but we’ll definitely need to do some focused eating up in the Northwest to get a good sense of what’s out there. That’s all I can think of for now. Quick note that I'll be a day late with the written recipe... staring at an empty word doc and feeling a bit of writer's block. Last couple vids have been real tough to edit, gunna give myself a touch of a rest today. Next week: Cantonese braised tofu.

No you're 110% right to say that tomato and egg is gross when it's literally wedges of tomato suspended in a cornstarch-thickened ketchup sauce thing. Slow-cooking the tomato sauce for longer is honestly the way to go. I like to cook my tomatoes like how I would an Italian pomodoro - I start by frying some tomato paste in some oil until it gets caramelised, then I add in a can of tomatoes and cook that down with some soy. I finish the sauce with some doubanjeong, and top the whole thing with some Chinese-style scrambled eggs on some rice noodles that have been tossed in sesame oil

I loved watching that egg puff up!

Hi guys. I made this (biang-biang noodles, braised pork, greens and tomato-egg-fry) tonight and I must say this is an amazing set of recipes/flavor profiles. Easily one of the top 5 dishes I have ever cooked, even though I had to cut some corners (substituting spring onions for pretty much anything green in your instructions). Will hopefully make it to China for work next year and I'm really looking forward to the real thing. Proud to do my little part in this through Patreon.

I'm SO with you on that ubiquitous quick fried tomato and egg stir fry. The tomatoes are too quickly fried and don't break down and there's allt that skin left. This gives a "grainy" mouthfeel that does not pair well with scrambled eggs at all. Then there's the problem that China generally doesn't have that good quality of fresh tomatoes (along with most of the world). I think egg and tomato dishes only really work during tomato season - in countries where you can get loads of those intensely red, properly matured tomatoes with that special intense natural sweetness . So bring in the Shakshouka (Tunisia), Menemen (Turkey), Huevos Rancheros (Mexico) or Uova in Purgatorio (Italy) instead please.

Haha I could go on all day about this. The other thing that I feel about tomato and egg is that is breaks the 'shape rule' - scrambled eggs, chunks of tomato? It's obviously far from the only Chinese dish that breaks that rule... but still. I've been meaning to play around & experiment with it. I'm thinking thinly julienned tomatoes together with silky Cantonese scrambled eggs (e.g. the scrambled eggs & shrimp). Degunk the tomatoes. Give the tomatoes a super brief fry at high heat & add a splash of Shaoxing, remove, toss in with the eggs. Cook the eggs using the low heat/folding method. Another thing that might be worthwhile experimenting with is using some sundried tomatoes. Chinese cuisine uses a *vast* array of dried food products, why not tomatoes? Perhaps instead of fresh you could reconstitute dried ones. Make a sauce with finely diced garlic, Shaoxing, the soaking liquid, soy sauce, & a slurry and smother it over. Anyway, I'm rambling :) Obviously a lot of people love the hell out of the dish.

BLASPHEMOUS! Well I am with you about Chinese tomatoes not being good anymore. My parents always complained that tomatoes tasted better when they were kids. But still there are ways to overcome the problems listed. My grandma always fry the eggs first, take them out. Then pre-heat the wok to stir fry the tomatoes for browning and cook until liquid comes out. Then you drop in the egg so it soaks in all that tomato juice. Season, drizzle of sesame oil, and serve. When done right, the tomato chucks should be soft and small in size due to shrinking. The egg is not over cooked and retains some of its form. And it is just sweet, savory and sour goodness.

For people in the States, lemme tell you about tomatoes. Unless you buy tomatoes fresh and in season from farmer's market, it's very likely the fresh tomatoes available for you in grocery stores will taste NOT GOOD. It will taste bland, watery and just unpleasant. Therefore, I recommend you to use canned whole/diced tomatoes instead. Canned roma tomatoes are good, or San Marzano if you feel fancy. This is because canned tomatoes are usually made from tomatoes that freshly picked in its ripest season so the taste would be preserved beautifully through canning.

Since we are on the topic of Cumin Lamb Noodles. Do you know what kind of Chili oil they are using in this part of the video? kzread.info/dash/bejne/m2l1mdx-oNPHoLA.html I was trying to recreate the cumin lamb noodle dish directly from Xian's Famous foods; the Chili oil that they used in the recipe doesn't seem like a normal chili oil so I was wondering if you knew what it was?

So I think it was Eddie Huang that lamented that immigrants in the USA always seem to need to sell their food at a discount. If I remember the story correctly, when he opened Bauhaus he proudly told his parents that he was "going to charge full fucking price!" So I'm of a couple minds when I look at the 'chainification' of Xi'an Famous Foods. I've heard a number of people repeat the same thing you said - price to value is nowhere NEAR as good as it used to be. Enough people that I trust that I assume that it's true and not just that rosey tint we sometimes get when we look at the past. But can you exactly blame Jason Wang (i.e. the son that expanded Xi'an Famous Foods)? Costs are so high in the US - and particularly in NYC - that you're lucky if you can break even in the restaurant business. I'm sure he didn't want to be toiling away in a Flushing basement serving discount noodles his whole life, and really, neither would I. So instead, he scaled them up and out... and now the business's worth $30 million. That's just the way thing work in America... and really, most of the OECD. Cut costs, standardize, automate, expand, repeat. It's the American dream, you know? So then, while I blame the guy zero... immigrant-run family restaurants are some of the only places in the US where a diner can get high quality *real* food at a reasonable price. So if that was one of my favorite restaurants in my neighborhood, that would undeniably suck.

If you render out a lot of oil in it and the oil can cover the meat, you can keep it for quite long. In an airtight container in the fridge for a month at least (skip the slurry and it can even last for longer). In China, there's a way of preserving meat with oil, which is rendering out the fat, fry the meat with the fat, then store the oil+meat together, the cooled down fat separates the meat from the air and acts as an airtight cover.
