This video deserves an Oscar. For one person to prepare this entire feast is mind boggling and my hats off to you! What an amazing feat. I never knew Chinese cooking involved this much work and preparation. My mouth was watering the entire time. Incredible. You are a true professional. I can never look at a fast food Chinese restaurant again and believe I’m getting the very best of Chinese cooking! Amazing!
DITTO ❤️
True Dat!!!! Making one dish can be 🤯 but making this many dishes and all by yourself 🦸♀️!!!
What I like most is ... that even some videos are very long... I do not get tired of them... Captures my attention completely. I watch it from the begining to the end (the first time), the second I take notes. usially do my "shopping list"... the third one is just before I start cooking (just in case I missed a thing)... and then I try it. The second time I cook the same recipe... well I just change it... I am not as perfectionist as Mandy... and could sacrifice a little bit of texture if needed (such as dehydrating the chicken twice... I thing is too much for me! haha) ...
Skip the Oscar! Let’s give her a Michelin Star! Or two!😋
@@sophierosebisou8420 😂 good point!

Mandy
Mandy, you are the best chef ❤. I enjoy cooking your fried rice, simple and easy to make and yummy in my tummy. Lol. Happy New Year
I have been watching your videos a long time, but I think the first one where I learned a new technique was this one: The Secret To Crispy Roasted Chicken - Chinese Five Spice Oven Baked Chicken Recipe [五香脆皮鸡]ruclips.net/video/Nu2WKUTeQTc/видео.html
ATTENTION I was contacted by a person pretending to be the youtuber who offered a macpro and in exchange asked for the payment of the transport costs for 100 dollars directly by her agent. She asked to go through telegram.
Chicken Lo Mein was great
Kung hee fat choy ! My favorite recipe is for zha jiang mein. I used your link to buy tian mein jang.
Excellent teacher : calm, organized, no dumb distracting music or noisy distractions going on in the background, plus you always dress so beautifully & are so cheerful.
I like watching your videos because you don’t just say a recipe-you take time to explain the ‘ why this works ‘ details like that mean so much! Thank you.
Well said! Always wondering, why the vids are pretty engaging. Ah! It's because the explanation given behind each of the actions being done. Also, it is beautiful how the chinese food is being named and how the name is explained in pronunciation, writings and so on. Very rich! Like literally and connotatively, because the menu will have gold, jade, pearls, gems and everything. "So, what're u having for dinner?" "Some jade and gold! (choy sum and potatoes)." When we think we're rich, food on the table are also treasures. People of wonder! Beautiful! The bitter melon boat has a very uplifting meaning too, thanks!
Wow! This is like 4+ cooking videos in one. I don't think I've seen such a detailed and ambitious cooking video on RUclips before.
the only channel that is equally very detailed is chinese cooking demystified. for me they are the best with mandy regarding chinese cooking.
This is a great opportunity to thank you for your channel. As a third-generation Japanese American, I have learned more from you over the past two years. Your chow mein and fried rice recipes are now my go-to recipes that I make often. I particularly enjoy your background information on the dishes and just watching you cook is so satisfying. Keep up the great work!
Happy Chinese New Year!! As an American-born Chinese person, I've always just known recipes and dishes by taste but not how to make them. Your channel has been a godsend in learning to cook the food I grew up with!! The one-pot chicken noodle soup (with the broth hack) has been a college student's lifesaver, and the various stir-fries have really helped me get familiar with cooking. Thanks for a wonderful few years, and here's to the next!
Totally agree on the one pot chicken noodle soup
Being a Chinese-Canadian who enjoys dim sum, I really like the "Cantonese Ribs with Black Bean Sauce Recipe (Dim Sum Style)". Along with other dimsum recipes (e.g. chiu chow dumplings, siu mai, beef balls etc.), you've allowed me to savour these dishes throughout the lockdown period when it wasn't as convenient to go out to restaurants for dim sum. Thank you Mandy for keeping the cooking so authentic and fun!
That's so awesome! one of my favorite recipes from her are lemon chicken because it reminds me of mu childhood when my parents would take us out for a treat and it was my fav thing to have for dinner as a kid!
This video has so much great info that I learned from. It's like all your videos in that regard but for this one it's clear you put an enormous amount of work into it-- thank you for this and all your other videos too. To anyone who doesn't own any of Mandy's products-- I own and use them all regularly and recommend them highly. Happy New Year!
Hi Mandy, I am watching from Suriname. Actually I love all your dishes but my favorite s the hakka stoffen tofu. As my grandfather was also Hakka. Unfortunately he died when I was only 4 years old so I did not have much time with him. Although I am just a little more than 25% Chinese, I am obsessed with the Chinese culture and cuisine. Each week I try out 1 of the recipes and I can't remember how many times I made the sesame chicken and the stuffed tofu. 😂 I love the way you always explain everything, so I can learn more about the culture. Thank you for that!
All the videos from this channel have helped my cooking skills grow. From noodle making, to velveting, to pickling. I always learn something.
My favorite recipes from you are dumplings and soups recipes and who knows how many times I've watched them!
I learned the ins and outs of Chinese Cooking from this channel. I used to blow glass in Santa Cruz, California and take the bus over the hill to San Francisco, which has an awesome Chinatown. My favorite was the ginseng shop.
My father was a famous musician and took me once to San Francisco where I saw an old Chinese woman practicing Taiji in the park. This effected me greatly. I was actually shocked when I saw it. She was so beautiful.
Right now I am Fasting and just drinking my Special Herbal Teas. I spent years learning single herbs and formulations. I want to learn Acupuncture and Herbs and treat disabled Veterans for free!
Your new years eve meals are my favorite. I can't do two dishes at once so I'm always blown away by the huge menus. I have your wok, large clay pot, knives and chopsticks. They are all of great quality.
I agree! Mandy makes it look so simple. I am in awe of how much she can accomplish. I love how detailed each step and the suggestions are.
Hi Mandy! Happy Chinese New Year. I really enjoyed watching your videos and I followed series of recipes like sweet and sour pork, pork dumplings, wonton noodle soup, and I’ve been following your channel all the time whenever i have something in mind to cook. I love it when you include some information about what we are cooking and history on it. Tips really help a lot. Instructions were very detailed and easy to follow.
I love how you explain how to make every dish to westerners like me.
Mandy you are hands down the best teacher for Chinese cooking!! I’ve learned so much from your demonstration techniques and your explanation of how ingredients interact. You are a wealth of knowledge and experience. Plus you are so fun to watch. I also love your product designs and the outfits you wear. My all time favorite is the one on how to fold the different dumpling styles.
Question for you: who was the most influential person in your life who taught you to cook?
If there’s one part of Chinese cooking that I love and have a hard time making, it’s sauces. But after watching your video on Dumpling Sauce, which was so simple a child could do it, I finally got the right ingredients to get the taste I was looking for. It’s so good I could drink it as it is without a dumpling. Finally! You made it so easy for me.
Hands down, teaching me how to "Velvetize" chicken and meat has been life changing. Any and all of the "Better than Take Out" recipes are winners. Thank you for bringing such joy and cooking expertise to our lives. Happiest of New Year's to you!
I love Souped Up Recipes. I am a widow who lives alone and cooks for one. I can reference recipes on your channel and adjust the amounts to perfect results every time. I really enjoy experimenting with your sauces and learning how to prep and marinate meats and proteins. Some days it is so easy just to make your skinny recipe since it is so delicious and satisfying. You have videos for everyone and your videos for beginners are excellent for those of us who need to build confidence in our skills. Now I've started to try substituting different ingredients I have on hand. What fun! I bought my wok 40 years ago----its finally getting a workout. Thank you so much.
Happy year of the Rabbit. My favorite dish was the Singapore Noodle recipe. I used to live next to a restaurant. One day I saw an employee eating the dish. I asked about it and it wasn't on the menu. The employees were gracious enough to make me a plate! Their hospitality and kindness made me fall in love with the dish all those years ago. Thanks again for bringing back great memories.
I have been following you for a few months now, but I have already learned so so much of food hacks and tricks to really take my Chinese recipes to a whole new level. Your shorts were pure revelation. I am sincerely so grateful to you and all your amazing recipes.
I absolutely love your lightening fast kung pow chicken recipe that I've made several times now.
Mandy, your New Year meal prep videos are amazing! I am so amazed by your impeccable organization and cooking skills! Thank you for sharing this! And I wish for you and your loved ones a wonderful, healthy and prosperous New Year!
I haven't been able to cook for a long time, so I live vicariously through select RUclips chefs. Since discovering Mandy's channel, she has become one of my favorites to watch! I watched her making moon cakes last year, wishing I could make some, because I have to order mine for shipment to Alabama.
The most delicious and helpful recipe are your dim sum recipes. It truly helped during times when restaurants kept closing and opening
I started watching you specifically for your recipes last New Year. It’s so important for our kids to be intros to other cultures. It’s not very easy to get all of the various ingredients aside from ordering online, but I love watching your work.
I don’t know how I could choose just one recipe !!!!! Your channel has helped me cook things I love at home and that is an priceless gift!! Thank you for all that you do!!
The Beef Lo Mein recipe was a real winner! Love all the videos!
Several years ago you did a pork belly that looked absolutely delicious. I tried the recipe and it was indeed absolutely delicious. Thank you for taking the time to share your culture with us!
I’m so happy I discovered this channel. It’s made cooking traditional Chinese food so much easier. The steamed bun recipe is my favorite!🎉
I know right?! She is very comprehensive and very simple to follow!
I started learning about Chinese dishes because my sister started to learn Chinese language and culture, so I wanted to surprise her with something known to her and I love cooking so luckily enough I found your channel and our absolute favorites are mooncakes. :)
We have been watching Mandy for about a year now. My fried rice is based on her better than take out frid rice recipes and the best I've made so far.
I found your channel through the snow skin mooncake recipe. We made it for the Mid Autumn festival. They were delicious and the filling to skin ratio was perfect. I grew up in China and moved to Canada very young. I grew up eating the recipes you cook. I never knew how to make it until I found your recipes.
This is a true event! I can only imagine the effort you have engaged to create this wonderful guide, and I appreciate how skilled you are to accomplish this. Thank you again for your great viewing, great cooking, and wonderful spirit!
Hi Mandy! I’ve been watching your channel for years and you’ve taught me so much. I love all your wonton recipes but your egg drop soup was practically the only thing I ate when I was losing weight.
I don't usually comment on anything on youtube but I love the hot chili oil recipe from years ago. It's a staple that I can't live without. My husband can't take spicy food, so it's my little personal pleasure. Thank you for making Chinese cooking so accessible - I'm a better cook because of you!
Soup is life, and that's how I got here. There's no single soup recipe, but all the techniques for making great soups. Making them clear, getting the most flavour from bones, the add-ins and all that. Apart from that, my other favourite recipe is hot & sour shredded potatoes. Has to be my favourite dish... after soup! Thanks for such great content, Mandy!
So many good looking, mouth watering dishes. I can't even imagine the level of planning that goes into preparing so many dishes.
Also, next year, I'd be happy to see your family, in your new year feast video and get their reviews on the meal.
Can’t imagine doing 10 dishes - I did your delicious squid recipe & it took awhile to get that done plus 2 other dishes - took me several hours 10 wd take me all day - you must be extremely organized to keep everything straight & not get mixed up what goes where & when to cook everything so it comes out correctly 😊
Happy Lunar New Year Mandy and fellow subscribers! I love your videos and am grateful to be able to learn how some of my favorite dishes from childhood are made. I don't always have time to cook, but watching you cook always makes me happy. You gave me courage to make my first homemade dumplings! And on regular rotation is your wonderful (and easy) Tomato Rice, and Chow Mein. Thank you so much for all you do for your fans and supporters.
I'm a wife, a parent, and me. Lol. I've been trying to incorporate more vegetables in my meals. My favorite video was the broccolini stir fry with the black mushrooms with other veggies. Thank you for all your great ideas.
Knife set looks great! I love all of your recipes, quick lessons and pronunciations. Plus I find your speaking voice and cooking directions relaxing.
happy Rabbit Year, Mandy~! thank you for supplying us with your recipes all year round :D as far as my favourite videos from you, i have two of them - the cabbage stir fry noodles (which i made literally yesterday, they're so so so delicious and have entered my dinner roaster for good) & the cantonese custard steamed buns, just because they look so yummy and aesthetically pleasing, but i'd have no patience for all the kneading ^^'
I also like her Cantonese noodles very easy and good
the amount of effort that you put into these videos is inspirational, ive done your snowy mooncakes recipe 3 times and I've always loved them
Happy Year of the Rabbit, Mandy!
I worked in China for 10 years and now that I am no longer there, I miss the food. I am trying to recreate Chinese dishes that I learned to cooked while there. Thanks to your channel, it helps me remember and improve my cooking.
You have helped me learn to make the perfect fried rice. I made it for my family yesterday and they all loved it. The flavors texture and presentation were as if I bought it from our favorite Chinese Restaurant I'm so happy now I can make it at home whenever.
After following you for a while it is hard to choose just one recipe. I loved the dumpling video you made, where you teached us several dumplings and their folding techniques and the wonton noodle soup. I love how to explain the recipes and all of them look delicious
Mandy, you are such a blessing. I have learned so much and made many recipes of yours. Among them: roasted pork belly, wood ear salad, scallion pancakes, variants of dumplings, mala hot pot soup base, you tioa (Chinese doughnuts) and various noodles and rice dishes you featured here. They turned out great. When i am learning a new dish, not only do I look at the recipe but also observe the way to execute it. I like to follow your method because not only do you give clear instructions but also why you do it in a certain way. I am not from China and never been to China but I am loving the food from China more than ever before. I wish to visit China one day to eat as much food as possible. But for now, Thank you for sharing the delicious recipes with us.
Hands down my favorite recipe has been the orange chicken. My family ate it about six times in the first week after I watched the video. Any time I don't know what to cook I just look up a Souped Up Recipes video with my chosen protein. The recipes never disappoint and I've had so much fun improving my cooking skills. Thank you Mandy.
I adore the year of the rabbit! I'm a horse myself but the decorations for this year are the cutest! I make your tomato soup recipe twice every week. It's the most comforting dish.
I have been following your channel for several years and have found myself tuning in whenever I need accurate information about how to prepare authentic Chinese dishes. I am an Indian American and love to cook , eat and feed.
The dishes that I love to make based on your recipes ? YUMMMM!!!
Crispy pork belly, chicken chow mein, pepper steak, Mongolian beef, Chinese style eggplant, Szechuan chili dipping sauce, hot chili oil, pork spare ribs, Taiwanese rice noodles, beef udon noodles, Cantonese fried rice....those are the ones I remember. Love to you and family and a very Happy New Year !!!
Wow, two days of work all on your own, what an amazing effort, and everything looks delicious! I think my favorite recipe from you has got to be the sweet dumplings you made last valentines day, they’re lovely!
I'm not a Chinese but I love cooking Chinese dishes 😋 ! Your videos 📹 and instructions are easy to follow, some of the dishes I already made out of hundreds of recipes of yours are sweet sour pork, pepper steak, stir-fry veggies and general Tao chicken.
yummy 😋 delicious, appetizing etc..
Thank you for being my teacher on this platform! I learned a lot from your channel.
Happy Chinese New Year!
Favourite dish from your channel? Hand's down: Rolled Omelette Recipe. I've made this so many times; made it for friends at their place; served it at special occasions; given it to my kid for a high-protein and low carb meal for work/sports. Still enjoy it after +100 times.
My husband and I have loved every recipe we have tried, but our most used recipe is the Shrimp and Broccoli Stirfry. We use this recipe about once a week. Sometimes we substitute the shrimp with chicken or pork....the sauce is perfect! We also have your wok. I have also purchased one for my son. I am so thankful for you , you are a wonderful teacher. Blessings.
This is incredible - the amount of work and complexity of the dishes is amazing!! A royal feast! (And you must be exhausted!!)
The amount of effort required to make this video is appreciated. Liked.
I know this video took a lot of time and hard work! But thank you so much for taking your time and energy to make it for the world! Every dish looks so amazing! 恭喜发财
I Love to try the Bittermelon Boat and the ribs... As a person that loves to cook and understands the hours of labor in the kitchen.. This brings me moe inspiration to try prepare new dishes.. Thank you for the inspiration, like what you did with your hotpot video..
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate all you do for us. You make these things user friendly to make!! I absolutely love all your recipes but the better than take out lo mein and fried rices!! Thank you so very much!
We love making your Chinese noodles, and I just feel comfort watching. Your cooking videos especially when I a missing cooking my grandma.
My favorite video that I've watched on Souped Up Recipes is the Easy Wonton Soup Recipe. I just found it amazing that she can close the wonton wrappers by crushing it in her hand in one try. lol. Congrats on all your successes. It has been a long road since you started in your dark kitchen and cooking with your nonstick pan.
Gong hei fat choy! My husband and children enjoy bao buns, and now I can make them at home. I didn't realize how easy they were to make. My husband is Chinese, and I am learning to make some of his favorite recipes from his childhood thanks to you. You are a great teacher.
Mandy, this is unbelievable! I hv to watch this again in bigger screen! U r amazing!
our families favorite recipe is - BETTER THAN TAKEOUT - Beef in Black Bean Sauce. That has become a recipe we make ever 2 weeks, and always well received
Hi Mandy! I've been away from home for many years now and haven't been able to celebrate New Years with them because of work. My favorite video is the Cripsy Pork Belly! It's not easy to get that where I am at but it definitely reminds me of home!
I've got to say your Liang Pi noodles video was my favorite. I'm always amazed by the science and process of using flour to create two delicious components of a dish!
Just saw this video and not sure if contest is still open... but do love your videos so...
It is hard to pick a favorite as I love the whole idea of it! My fav video of yours on your channel is making the sauces at home! That is so great to be able to do!
good luck everyone and wishing everyone a happy family with a happy life, abundant profit, good health and to achieve your heart desires...
🌹 🌹 🌹
My favorite recipe has got to be the one for the steamed custard buns. I love how you put so much time and effort into explaining every little step to end up with the best quality buns!
You won me over with the fermented tofu recipe. I never thought I can make that at home! You definitely know your stuff.
I love your dimplings and how you teach how to cook the steamed eggs. You teach with a passion. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to us.
I love your kung pow chicken, I've cooked it for my husband and it's his favorite too. Your videos are easily understood (I'm meaning well explained) and easy to look at the recipe it self. Not only do you show us how to make the dish but you teach us things about the food or history behind the dish. But mostly your videos are pleasant to watch. Thank you for time
My favorite recipe of yours is the beef stir fry with black bean sauce. It is the first time I used your velveting technique. It was a game changer for me. I just bought your wok last week. I didn’t think using one would make that much of a difference in cooking stir fry. I was so very wrong. I love your wok, and the wooden lid is a beautiful touch. Thank you for making delicious food accessible.
Hi Mandy, I'm a follower and I always share your videos. Love watching your show you're the only Chinese who give us tip, you are generous, rarely will u find Chinese giving tip, thanks, Thank you. Love your show
I love watching your very detailed video on how to fold dumplings in many beautiful ways, such great information! We also watched the folding of the Bao Buns, over and over until we finally got it! Thank you for your very informative videos, you’re definitely one of our favorite people to watch!
Your meticulous organisation skills make me feel really calm. I hope your loved ones appreciate all of your efforts and wishing everyone a happy new year! 🎉
that was AWESOME - i especially liked the meaning pages for each dish- i always wish your videos are longer- this one really does it
Thanks for your hard work as always! We love using your Custard Bun recipe for special occasions, and use your Egg Drop Soup almost every week!
As a Cantonese growing up in Europe, watching your videos really helped me rediscover recipes I otherwise wouldn't have known!
The Bubble Milk Tea is one of the recipes that I'm happy to have made too! It's really delicious and takes me back to when I was in HK
Hi Mandy, I have always loved all your videos but the 1 video which I make most often is "BETTER THAN TAKEOUT AND EASY - Egg Fried Rice Recipe " from the awesome "Better than takeout and easy " series. This series is my go to after a hard day at work. I have made almost all of the recipes from this series and warm my soul in this freezing Canadian winter! Happy New Year and thank you!!🌻
Thank you for sharing Chinese new year with us and taken your time to help us understand the culture of Chinese culture. My grandmother is Chinese I never got a chance to meet her because she die before I was born and this video made understand the culture . Thank you 😊
Happy Rabbit New Year Mindy! 🎉🎉
I love making your orange chicken and all of your fried rices from Egg fried Rice to Shrimp fried rice. Because of you the Chinese dishes I make are all winners. I’ve make you green beans recipe, wontons, eggs rolls. I even bought two different sets of your chops sticks and my wok. Which I love so much. I’m so confident in your way of cooking that I have incorporated my own just from watching you. Thank you so much! Vanessa Simms.
My favorite dish I've made from this channel is wonton noodle soup for my entire family. We have a lot of different allergies, so it's hard to find food that everyone likes and can eat, but everyone loved it!
Oh my goodness! It is so hard to pick just one favorite. I loved both the Broccoli ( when you toast it in the frying pan), and chicken. I also love the Mongolian Beef- and the dish with cabbage you made with sweet potato noodles! Ok.. I’ll stop! I love so many of your recipes-and your advice, and I check in often! Happy New Year!!
I have made the beef lo mein and crispy chow mein. Living far from the city and not having yummy authentic Asian restaurants, I decided to learn and cook for my family when we are craving Asian food. Sure enough these two recipes have been a big hit in my family and make it quite often. Also, I just appreciate all the tips you give during cooking which has helped me improve my skills. Thank you!
One of my favorite channels on RUclips. I would have to say that steam buns and sesame chicken would be my favorites. Appreciate all the detail in the videos and keep up the great work
Can’t get enough of you chicken and broccoli recipe! Comes out perfect every time!!
My fav dish from your channel is definitely the garlic scallop noodle from last year's CNY video. I have made that several times and am still loving it lol
新年快乐! I, too, have been watching your channel for years now and I'm always impressed with how concise and easy to follow your recipes are. I think my favorite recipe of yours would have to be from your five dumpling recipe video. Since the time from when I first learned from that video, I'm now able to create all kinds of dumpling goodies for myself! Thank you so much for what you do Mandy!
I only occasionally watch your videos but I love that you have your measurement in the videos. A lot of Asian cooking video doesn't and to just eyeballing it but I don’t want to waste my ingredients if I got it wrong, especially in the raw meat marinating process!
I loved this amazing video. Believe it or not, I truly got a real lesson from my favorite video on veletizing proteins and why in certain cases you only stir in one direction. Just a complete change in my life.
really nice.. why does anybody has to wonder why i love the world its so fascinating and full of surprises its time to make it good clean better and decent for all.
My favorite recipe from you is your Salt and Pepper Shrimp. I love how simple you explain your recipes.
麻婆豆腐 is my favorite dish! I made it so many times for my family using your recipe and they loved it every single time. The thing about cooking is that we can always tweak slightly to our tastebuds and I love all your recipes! I refer to them time and again when I wanna cook chinese food for my family.
I can't get enough of you! I can watch you every day & eat your recipes every day! Seriously. It gave me confidence to try bittermelon. I love your videos so much I wrote to foodnet work about your RUclips videos. I would love your wok & knife set so much! I would be over the moon blessed to have your whole set! Thank you so much for your hard work in producing such fun & entertaining videos. You need to be on TV and become a brighter star! I ask blessings on your work. Please never stop! I've been watching since Yan Can Cook! ☺️
Omgoodness!! Your family is very lucky to have you cook for them. These dishes are undoubtedly a labor of love!! I don't think I love anyone this much 😅Happy New Year Mandy!!
Mandy I love your channel! Your recipes are special to me because sometimes I can’t put a name to the specific dish when I try to recreate them from memory. Growing up my grandfather cooked many of these dishes (unnamed). It can be difficult to find translated recipes since they were passed down orally or by memory. Thank you for all that you do!
Happy Lunar New Year, Mandy and Family! This 2023 Reunion Dinner Banquet is a Feast for the Eyes as you Prep yielding Fabulous Results and Listening to your Chinese Pronunciation is Music to my Ears. It's very hard to "Pick One", but, your "Chinese Braised Pork Belly Dong Po Ru" Recipe, impressed my Dinner Guests as they Ranted and Raved of "how tender and cute they were being individually tied with string". Also, thanks to your All-Time Favorite Oldies Recipes: "Chinese Style Egglant," "Char Siu," "Pepper Steak" and "Sweet & Sour Chicken Wings", which I still presently still make for over 5 years now. 💜
I like the recipes, very easy to follow and clear how to explain it so it's easy to follow to try to cook it. Happy New Year!
The soy roast chicken in a rice cooker recipe was a bit of a game changer. It was delicious!
My grandson and I are frequenting your videos and gleaning your tips and solid basic cooking practices as well as getting the reasons for techniques. Your videos are a feast of information.😍. Happy rabbit year.
My go to channel! After living in China, I have learned to cook the items I enjoyed. My friends have enjoyed all the mooncakes (I have made every one of the video recipes) for last year's mid-autumn festival. But my favorite is the chicken feet :) Thank you.
