Thank you, thank you for showing the packaging for it makes it much simpler to actually find it at markets. By and by, I cannot wait to do this recipe.
Even thou I don't care for bitter melon, I'm liking this video. All of the stuffing ingredients sounds so yummy. Going to cook this for my wife since she's a bitter melon fan. Thanks
my favorite bitter melon. yes its an acquired taste n ive acquired it. i made it before but braised it but you also added chung choi n sesame oil in your pork hash n steamed it n i learned how to make an easy black bean sauce from your video thanks
You made your own black bean sauce, I’m so grateful that you shared this recipe! I just started eating Bitter-melon. Your stuffed Bitter-melon recipe looks delish!😋😋😋Mahalo fir sharing.
Bitter melon is good to regulate your blood pressure. My Chinese dad used to make this often. I just stir fry my pork and bitter melon to get my bitter melon fix! Thanks for sharing!
I tell you what haha I made so much pork hash and always said something is missing.. Then saw in my mom's old cookbook honwagin( sp ) set.. abt pickled turnip and to the store I went.. what a difference..that was it the missing ingredient! I make em like you but only difference is i add green onion.. I just grew bitter melon last summer gave to my aunty..im definitely gonna grow more n try it your way.. Looks so so ono.
My mom always grew and made stuffed bittermelon....used to tell me "just eat it! bittermelon is like medicine...it's good for you!". Bittermelon Namasu is also very good...the vinegar cuts the bitterness.
I also make a Burmese bitter melon Pickle that wrings out all the bitterness. My daughter didn't like but when she tasted this she l ike's it. One day I'll make it.
I have not had bitter melon that I can recollect. I just bought a package from the Saigon Market in Manchester, NH, but I am looking forward to going back to find some of those other ingredients! Thank you for sharing.
I will be making a Burmese stir fried bitter melon using pork, tomatoes, tamarind and fish sauce. One of my favorites go to. Lucky the bitter melon this week was only .50 a pound. Usually almost $3 a pound. No one in my household likes it so I share it with a friend.
Tūtū Kauka used to tell a story about going into a Chinese restaurant in Germany (I think?) with Grampa Kauka. They asked if there was any fu kwa (not sure of spelling), not really expecting any, and then the server disappeared into the kitchen. Soon after, the cook came out and said, "WHO ASK FOR FU KWA??" He glared at them and said, "YOU COME BACK TOMORROW". Dutifully, they returned the following day, and the cook happily presented them with a fu kwa dish. I like to think it was stuffed bittermelon!
Wow your pork hash with all those ingredients looks delicious, n to steam it -is way better than frying it I think 😀 Thanku and I love that plate carrier 😀
We went down to china town and ordered beef and bittermelon cooked in black bean sauce. One day the discussion was about how to cook the bitterness out of the bittermelon. The answer was to use a little more sugar in cooking the bittermelons.
Others have to simmer the bitter melon in water with baking soda, the melon have to be turn over to immerse into the water! Then stuff the mixture and steam or fried will do good to the taste buds! Happy eating. . . 😊
@marychin170...You can use a salt/water brine and let sit for about 15 minutes. Rinse well and it does take a lot of the bitterness out. I, of course love the bitterness so I leave it as is.
Before cleaning out the seeds I parboil the bitter melon slices 3 minutes to remove some of the bitterness and make the seeds and white pith easier ti scoop out... thank you for the gravy recipe
Hi Auntie, are you a Hokkien lang? I mean are your forbears from Fujian? Just curious. I too love this dish but over here in Malaysia we call this veg Bitter Gourd rather than melon. Thank you very much for the recipe! God bless!
My family is from Canton as a lot of Chinese in Hawaii are from there. I don't speak the language but I know a lot of food words since my mom cooked all the foods.
Black bean garlic sauce can be used but I buy the plain salted black beans, rinse and mash slightly. If you live on Oahu, I will tell you where to buy it À
Loss the original msg to you which said Howzit Lenora! I am stuck on all your videos, I try to add ideas from your recipes to enhance my cooking, e.g. fried rice, noodles, pork hash, etc. etc

My cookbook is out of print. If you're on Oahu, all libraries have copies to check out;

Very unique! Thank you :)

You really can't tell if it's bitter. I don't like to put more sugar.

My fave dish. Love bitter melon especially with black bean sauce 💖💕🥢🥣🥡. Kung Hee Fat Choy Aunty. Al🌺ha
Same to you.
Love da vid. Love bitter melon: mo bitter mo bettah is what I say. Aloha from Kalihi Valley🌺
Great, try other recipes like stuffed. I also like it Burmese style with tamarind, tomatoes, fish sauce, tumeric.
Before cleaning out the seeds I parboil the bitter melon slices 3 minutes to remove some of the bitterness and make the seeds and white pith easier ti scoop out... thank you for the gravy recipe
@palolopam331, thanks for the tip ❤ It worked! Now I can enjoy this dish👍😍
oh wow! mahalo for this! i used get mine from JunBo, but when i went back the last time, they don't make it anymore
Looks yummy even if it's bitter
Hi Auntie, are you a Hokkien lang? I mean are your forbears from Fujian? Just curious. I too love this dish but over here in Malaysia we call this veg Bitter Gourd rather than melon. Thank you very much for the recipe! God bless!
My family is from Canton as a lot of Chinese in Hawaii are from there. I don't speak the language but I know a lot of food words since my mom cooked all the foods.
Hello, just found your channel, subscribed 🤗 do you every soak in salt water the bitter melon round before filling with the pork hash?
Never did, just use as is. However, some melons tend to be more bitter but hard to tell.
Aunty, can the filling also be used for lumpia?
Yes, but kinda meaty. Best to add some veggies like carrots and cabbage.
@@HawaiisPickleLady thank you aunty! I thought of that too, but what an Ono foundation to start with!
Besides Chinatown where else can I buy white pepper? I can't seem to find it in the markets I go to.
I see online that Walmart sells it and Mc Cormick brand does too. You just have to check around.
YUM!!!
Me___Steaming it now at home
From cooking bitter melons, I noted that bitter mellons with lighter color are less bitter than the greener ones.
Very true, I found that out.
can we use soy sause instead of black beans sauce
Yes, but you'll change the flavor. Black beans, Chinese style has a distinctive taste.
@@HawaiisPickleLady
I went to store to by black bean sauce but they had black bean garlic sauce. Is it the same?
Black bean garlic sauce can be used but I buy the plain salted black beans, rinse and mash slightly. If you live on Oahu, I will tell you where to buy it

Oh no! I always say that there is no original recipe, everyone tweaks according to your taste. Good job.
Bitter melon? Hmmm...
Taste it. All kids my age grew up with it. Most didn't like it as a kid but learned to like it.
some ono ainty.
One of my favorites but unfortunately my family can't stand the bitterness. I cook it in several ways, even pickle it and the bitterness is taken out.
