    Fun fact for how satay became "sha cha" in Chinese. The character “茶” is pronounced "cha" in Mandarin Chinese but "teh" in Min Chinese (That's why "cha" is called "tea" in English).
    When the Min Chinese brought back satay, they wrote it as "沙茶", which is pronounced "sa teh" in their language, but "sha cha" in Mandarin Chinese.

      Now, that's really a surprise for me because I never thought of it before. I'm actually a Hokkien Chinese from Malaysia, now that you mentioned it being transliterated from Malay into Minnan dialect (Hokkien), it suddenly makes sense.( 沙茶 Sha Cha ) is pronounced as Sa Teh in Minnan ,thanks for the information.🙏

    I've been living in Xiamen for the past 8 years and I really love it. Glad you are introducing the city to a whole group of people who may not know about it. While it would be the second largest city on America (based on population) it's considered a "small" city by chinese standards so not many people know about it and I think it needs more love. Glad you enjoyed your visit!

    Didn't know satay noodles were a thing in China as well, here in Singapore we have our own take which is called satay beehoon which is a thicker peanut sauce (usually the same thick, chunky dip served with satay) served on top of rice vermicelli noodles, squid and kangkong (water spinach); here our oyster omelettes are served with a more vinegary, spicy chilli sauce that is not sweet at all and more runny. Adding coconut milk to desserts is also such a Southeast Asian thing (similar to the dessert we have here called bubur chacha). Overall everything in the video is so familiar! Waves of migrants have left the region of southern Fujian and Guangdong since hundreds of years ago and it seems that there is definitely a frequent cultural exchange which has gone on between these parts of China and Southeast Asia; some economic migrants to Southeast Asia in the past went back to China in the end, whereas some of us (like my family) just settled and stuck around here in Southeast Asia for many generations now. To my knowledge some Malay words like the word for 'money' (lui in our dialect which is a loanword from Malay 'duit') have even found their way back to China together with satay sauce. Interesting!

    • @BenjiSun
      @BenjiSun 2 года назад +1

      IIRC, the satay in Fujian/Chaozhou area is also known as Shacha sauce. it's a lot less sweet, but still quite oily and has a really mild spicy kick. i regularly have satay + fatty beef slices on hor fun from my local noodle shop alongside some watercress with fermented tofu paste and some assorted fishballs/beefballs/fishcakes (chiuchow-ish style).

      @YummYakitori 2 года назад +1

      @@BenjiSun Shacha is just the Mandarin pronunciation of the two words used by Min Nan Chinese rendered to mimic the sound of "satay". The English word "tea" and its associating words throughout Western Europe is a loanword from Min Nan / Hokkien "teh", whereas much of the rest of the word uses the loanword from northern China "cha" (also modified into "chai"). In ancient Chinese characters the Min Nan / Hokkien word "teh"would be written 荼 but nowadays the corresponding word has been modified to 茶 just for simplicity sake.

    Great video. Amy, it would be quite helpful if you can put together a video on how you manage to keep such an upbeat mindset amidst all the uncertainties/quarantine

    Although adapted from satay, shacha (沙茶) is actually very different from satay (沙爹)which has more of a peanut/nutty and creamy flavour, and is slightly sweet. Shacha doesn't contain peanut so it doesn't have the nutty flavour, and is salty instead of sweet. It's also slightly spicy (just a hint) and also contains seafood. They actually taste completely different!

    Those oysters looked SO good. I had a similar thing in a hawker centre in Penang.

    Finally something I had tasted before Amy! Ate the coconut dessert in a small village next to my uni in Guangzhou back in 2013 - I had no clue what it was but it was freakin delicious! But I think I missed the name of the dish?

    seriously , watching you eat the yummy oyster omelette make me keeping swallowing n gulping in my mouth . These xiamen dishes you tried are my fav street food. Love the fact they are generous with ingrediants n toppings. . You cant get this much ingredients anymore in south east asian even if you pay double the price.

    @2:15 “everything under the sun” = everything on earth
    “Under the sun” is used to emphasize large number of something
    “Under the sun” 是指于很多东西的时候。比方说失散多年的朋友,他们相见的时候有很多东西去谈。”They discuss every topics under the sun when they meet for the first time”
    Or “this candy store has many different type of candy under the sun”

    I highly recommend Gutian county, it’s not too far away from Xiamen, like 2 hours of high rail, we have so many delicious food that maybe you have never heard of, like 米烧兔 rice smoked rabbit, 青草吃补汤 some sort of grass/herbal soup that comes with varieties of meats, and 芋头面 taro noodle, 平湖鱼汤 pinghu fish soup, and so many many more

    • @jarek5217
      @jarek5217 2 года назад

    Taiwanese American here. In Taiwan, we also have our own version of the dish with fewer oysters but more potato starch mixture, and it actually looks more like a pancake/omelet.

    I maybe bias but imo Siguotang is as good as Bingfen if not better, the main ingredient used to be Agaragar, xiancao, and various fruits and nuts. Honey is the go to sweetener for the dessert, I strongly suggest that you try the traditional mix, it's one of the best thing to eat in a humid summer day!
