    This sauce is absolutely the best thing I have ever made. I am now on my 3rd time making it and have finally felt confident enough to mess around with the recipe - adding a pinch here or there - and I am so thankful that her recipes are so easy to follow. Love this one and the egg drop soup one! We also bought her wok and it's one of my favorite pots in my kitchen.

    This is one of my favorite cooking channels, especially for Chinese cooking. I especially appreciate & enjoy the detailed breakdown on seemly minor details, such as the timing of when to cook each of the ingredients, amongst other easily overlooked, yet important tips. Those " tips" are the differences between achieving good flavors vs great restaurant/ professional quality finished products. Please keep up the good work, and congratulations on getting married!

    I think I will buy a jar of this to see if I like it first before I think about making some. Too much work to make and it doesn't look appetising either, though probably tastes great! Love how you give us a full written recipe in the description so we can print it and go buy the ingredients to make the recipe :=). This is a massive plus. Thanks Mandy for going to all this effort!

    This weekend I made your XO sauce.
    A couple of weekse ago I dried scallop and shrimp wich I used for the sauce.
    I used italian Bressoa ham.
    Making it for the first time was a lot of work...BUT....wow, what a recepy !
    SO GOOD and a divine taste.

    This looks like the most flavorful sauce ever. I've wanted to try XO sauce for a long time, and I love difficult recipes but this looks a bit out of my range, on account of some of the ingredients being kind hard to find where I am in the world. I'll be buying it for now, but I'll definitely keep this video in mind when I decide to try it myself. Thanks.

    Oh wow! I finally made XO-sauce and followed your recipe and dried the scallops and shrimps myself. The sauce is truly amazing (never tasted it before)! We made a nice shrimp and leftover beef stirfry and it might be one of the best sitrfries I ever had. Thanks so mucht for your perfect instructions. I'm grateful.
    I have one question. What if you don't use dried scallops (so expensive!) and replace them with dried fish (like stockfish cod). Do you think it could work as some XO-sauce recipes use dried fish as well?

    Hi Mandy, I have been a subscriber of your "Souped Up Recipes" for a while now and I really love your passion and the work that you do on your channel. Your recipes are absolutely fail-safe because you are very thorough in your research, recipe development and presentation, as well as in revealing the entire recipe, without holding back on any secrets, as I found out the hard way from other food presenters over the years.
    The reason I decided to write to you this time, is about your use of Canola oil. I would like to raise your awareness about the harmful effects of this nasty oil, to us humans. I was very sick for a number of years, with symptoms of poor memory and depression; anxiety; asthma and worst of all, chronic fatigue syndrome. I had been very healthy and strong for most of my life, up until all these symptoms started to appear. The Doctors were treating me for all of these symptoms, but my condition was worsening instead of improving. It wasn't until I spoke to an expert on oils, that this person picked up on my health complaints and instantly made the connection to canola oil. To cut a very long story short, after I completely eliminated canola oil from our diet and literally threw out any canola oil that I had in the kitchen, my condition started to improve, to the point that I no longer suffer from any of the complaints mentioned above.
    Regardless of what most of the information out there claims, most of which is provided by the beneficiaries of canola oil production, the fact remains that it is bad for our health. I understand that it is very cheap, but there are other not much more expensive alternatives out there, such as sunflower oil and peanut oil for high heat cooking, provided each type of oil is used according to its properties such as smoking point.
    I came across a very informative article, titled "9 Reasons Canola Oil Is Bad for You (as in, Toss It ASAP)", at this link: blog.bulletproof.com/what-is-canola-oil/ which I hope that you and your subscribers will get some benefit from.
    Please note that I am in no way connected to any oil companies, nor do I have shares in any company, therefore I gain nothing from the information contained above.
    Best wishes, Always, Tim

      wonder if Olive oil will work for this recipe.

    • @timstravellingwok
      @timstravellingwok 5 лет назад +1

      @@joec.743 The problem with olive oil is that it turns into a solid under cold temperatures such as when you store the sauce in the fridge. The other negative with using olive oil is that the flavour of the oil in the sauce, might not complement the Asian style recipe it is used in. In my opinion, a more neutral flavoured oil like sunflower oil would be a better option. I have used sunflower oil when I made XO sauce in the past and it worked perfectly.

    Hellooooo! I first had 'house-made' XO Sause on Halibut somewhere in middle Illinois while travelling. It was fantastic! They also severed a great tofu dish with home-made Tofu fried on outside and creamy inside. Sorry I do not remember the name of the place. Somewhere within 30min drive of Argonne National Lab..
    I went on a binge watch on Souped up Kitchen. I had to try this sauce on Halibut! The ham part was a little hard to digest based on people's opinion - even calling for very high-price products. I used smoked ham shank toward the narrow end of bone (bone adds flavor). The remaining shank I will make split-pea soup. This worked well!
    In the SF bay area, Ranch 99 did not have dried scallops but Marina Foods did!
    Anyway, for the Halibut which I poached, I used a fish stock with corn starch to thicken. I added XO Sause and pored on top of Halibut. OMG, close to what I remembered in Illinois! Yummy!
    Mandy, Go Girl! I love your videos! Great way to make excellent food without MSG! I read labels of products with disappointment - I rather make myself so I can control ingrediencies!

    I’m very interested in making this and wondered if you are familiar with southern USA’s smoke dry cured hams and if you think the flavor would be a good substitute for this or would something less salty and less smoke cured be more appropriate like an Italian dry salt cured ham.
    Our hams are distinctive and have a very salty, slightly sweet but very smoky flavor profile.
    It can be soaked if desired to remove salt.
