  • We sent the very special Andy Baraghani to the iconic Nom Wah Tea Parlor in Chinatown to learn all about dim sum and Cantonese cuisine. Joined by cookbook author and activist Grace Young, Andy tastes his way through Nom Wah's menu and then learns how to make some Chinese staples, including char siu bao (barbecue pork steamed buns), beef spare rib rice roll and pork & shrimp potstickers.
    Grace partners with AAFE for the Safe With Sound campaign. Learn more here: www.aafe.org/s...

      @star12341998 2 года назад +1

      @@300blackcats There’s no reason for her credibility to plummet. Dimsum is a Cantonese cuisine, and as such, dimsum is obviously a Cantonese term. Cantonese is a dialect of Chinese, and has its own variations in how words are spoken. So, yes, dim sum means “touch the heart” in Cantonese. But it’s more commonly referred to as Chinese, since it’s the umbrella term.

    • @doraima29
      @doraima29 3 года назад +1

      We are accustomed to eating Southern Chinese food because of migration, war between China and Japan, Ww2 and how Chinese people were poor at that time. Migration was key how they brought their food heritage and culture with them. Over time, the humble beginnings and growth brought it to other countries and America's Chinatowns for over 100 years. For the past 20 years, we come to experience other regions especially East And West China like Jiang, Shanghai, Yunnan, Mongolia more slowly.
