Had a really eye opening conversation with the Chefs towards the end- was debating whether to shorten that section but decided that it’s something people should hear especially in today’s social climate. Lemme know what y’all think! EDIT: also uploaded this video @ like 1:30 am lol next time I’ll do a THOROUGH spell check 😅
I've really been enjoying this series with Chef Quie and Chef Charles. I'd love to see the tables turned a bit and have them take you to some of their favourite restaurants as well
As a Black man with a diverse peer group I have been exposed to food from many countries and cultures. It is great to broaden one’s horizons and try differs things. As chef said, you don’t know what you don’t know. Is better to try and not be put off by how something looks. If unsure, or do not have a friends to expose, ask questions. I always try chef recommendations on any menu.
Next step is to try some soul food and learn more about where those foods come from. There are many similarities in Asian and African American culture.
Like, you I've been very a very fortunate Black Canadian to be exposed to so many different culinary traditions. I thank my mother's sense of adventure for this. The very first restaurant meal we had in Canada back in the 80s was Japanese.
And the choice you have to make yourself feel better. Feeling something fulfilling, healthy? Bulgolgi stew or Chinese herbal chicken soup. Feeling like a big grill? Lebanese grill. Feeling like croissant in tasty milk? Egyptian om Ali. People missing out!
I been in the restaurant industry for 20+ years, and I don't know if that's why, but everything Chef Q is saying around the 20-21 min mark absolutely hits with me. Working hard despite your situation, or better yet, because of your situation, is a mentality, a way of looking at the world. Some people were taught that worldview, and some people weren't. Those that weren't taught that tend to, as our noble host said, play the victim card. That too is a mentality and a way of looking at the world. GREAT EP!!!!!
I noticed a lot of textural comments made and its very interesting as I feel like in the West we do prefer and find textures that are crispy, crunchy or flakey more desirable whereas in Asian cuisine, soft, chewy and gelatinous textures are something more accustomed to. Great to see such openness from the chefs and great conversation at the end!
It's not that Asian cuisine prefers chewy over crunchy etc. It's more of that the Chinese cuisine has a much wider range for textures. People also seek different textured food and have their own preferences, and texture is a very big part of the food. That's why there are some items here that has no taste, but interesting textures like the tripe or goose intestine.
Asian cuisine has a lot of crunchy foods too: youtiao, taiwanese fried chicken (more crispy than western fried chicken), peking duck, shrimp crackers, tempura, potstickers, fried pork chops, katsu, etc.
The conversation toward the end was so beautiful it almost brought me to tears. Bless these three for being such calm and understanding people. I hope everyone eventually can have such a positive mindset after being through so much.
70+ & retired Chef, America did something like this long ago & it was called fondue. Most people will think cheese or chocolate which is related. But no, I'm speaking about hot oil fondue where we cooked meat & vegetables, adding a tempura batter if desired. The Hotpot table looked a lot like our table w/the hot oil pot in the center & trays of meat & vegetables around the pot. With each person having a long fork for cooking what they desired. Like these Hotpots much , much better. Thank you.
That sounds interesting！There's also a sichuan hotpot will purely butter and chilli paste no water at all. It's too much fat for my health concern so I only tried once. But it's really great winter comfort dinner!
This is a -French- (Edit, it's Swiss actually) things called "Fondue Bourguignonne", kinda the same spirit of the hotpot in the communal meal aspect of it, and lots of meat of course :)
Now imagine the fusion kitchen this kind of collaboration. SOUTH LOUISIANA STYLE HOTPOT! I get goosebumps out of this kind of thing. Mixing two, wildly different kitchens in a communal meal style. Gets me goin' does.
I can’t believe you guys really did it! So coooool, Hot pot is more than food, people can work together to cook hot pot and have a good time to share and talk.
I love taking new people to Hot Pot! I usually make a few sauce combinations for them so they can gauge what they like and what they don't like, cuz the sauce makes for a good amount of the experience! This is so wholesome!
I absolutely love the cross cultural vibe you bring to these. It's great to heat different aspects to the same things. There are some universal aspects in cooking (noodles, fried foods, marination) that apply to almost every culture. Hotpot is somewhat unique, yet at the same time strangely universal in that there is a tradition of quick cooking foods to an extent. It's amazing always to see people get an understanding and grasp of other viewpoints.
Love this trio❤ love love love the chef eating with his hands(makes me hungry,he makes food look delicious😋) this needs to be a series with multiple seasons,genuinely enjoying this❤
Thank you for sharing the chefs' sense of their neighborhood. It is so terrible that people being shot daily is "normal." Loved the hot pot learning experience.
This is why I am very grateful my parents taught me to finish my plate. It was hellish sometimes, when I was a kid, but I am convinced it did teach me to be able to eat more things compared to people who were allowed to just not eat things, or even more inconceivable to me: kids that got different dishes cooked for them than what their parents were eating. And now, where ever I am, and whatever the dish (even when it's something I had at home and didn't like) I will always try it, and very often find out that when things are cooked "right", they are amazing and eye-opening.
as a chinese myself, i love japan but hearing ur grandfathers story about what they did, it is very cruel to hear. You guys were on point with how the future generations will be more forgiving but the cruel history that you mentioned pretty much made me remember what theyve done in the past. Ofc no grudges but something not to forget and hopefully not to be stored within the heart
Unfortunately even today the young generation of Japanese have been taught not to respect China, and that Japan should take over China like it once did. Notice that almost every Japanese person you met never showed any gratitude to China for what it did for Japan for over a thousand years, teaching the Japanese almost everything in their traditional culture including language, writing, clothing, housing, architecture, art, food and even religion.
Hate the perpetrators, but not the children. Not to mention their entire culture has changed. Imperial japan is dead. But it is also good to remember not to get caught in propoganda, like what mainland china did in 2011. I knew some of my familiy that didn't care about Japan suddenly talked about japan invading. They are honestly that susceptible, even though they basically don't live there.
My grandfather had a love and hate relationship with the Japanese. He lost some of his brothers to the Japanese when he was a kid, but had nothing but respect to the Japanese for being able to rebuild from a war torn country to a global powerhouse in such a short period. He even gave his blessings if I were to pursue a Japanese Girlfriend.
I was browsing for background brainrot when your video popped up, and despite looking for reactions to just be entertained by, the production value of your videos made me sub. The cultural background you go over for context without getting long-winded, and the honest opinions of your guests really makes your videos great. It's great to see an authentic cultural exchange, especially with how crazy normies are these years.
Bro I’m about to binge watch all these videos. My transmission is cracked and I do uber so I’m kinda stuck for a few days until a new one comes in. Thanks these are great videos
I just had beef beef hotpot Chiuchow style yesterday at Shenzhen and is unreal. Freshly slaughtered beef every day and prepared to us freshly cut into up to 8 different parts. It does not get the fattiness of US prime nor Wagyu but the delicate beef flavour is insane! The whole meal costs100USD which more amply fed 8 people.
I really do love these two and the new relationship you guys have built up. Would love to see Charles and Quie show YOU guys some new things if theyd like
You are truly a blessed and awesome person. In todays world with more bad new then anyone wants to hear, you are an angel with a sword of happiness with food and bringing culture together. I hope you prevail for the rest of your life.
Hotpot is the best group dining for everone.... I introduced this to some friends way back in late 90s to some Canadian friends...I just told them to bring some veggies, and meats, and I supplied the asian stuff like sauces, fish and meat balls, tofu stuff, noodles....we even had one pot for vegetarians only.... and it was so fun for everyone (cheap too)... Heard they still do hotpot nights during winter. :)
I've said it before, but I think there's a lot of overlap between Asian foods and southern cooking. Specifically Korean, but Hot Pot has a lot of similarities with some soul food or cajun cooking where you stretch your ingredients with a flavorful broth.
ya that's not what it is tho. In Beijing hotpot, we boil things in plain water. It's the opposite actually; it's to accentuate good ingredients. Also the sauce is super important. The broth doesn't impart that much flavor because you're only boiling it for like 10-20 seconds.
@@ysf-d9i When I was growing up in HK, we also started off with plain water. After a while it became soup with the meat and veggies cooked in it. The hot hotpot is likely a "new" or regional thing.
Thanks for sharing about how the Bronx hasn’t changed… I tried to turned my eyes away and stopped listening to convinced myself that it can’t be true. You can’t fix it until you know there’s pain that needs healing.
hot pot is the best. not all are great but good. like the chefs did, the best part is making your own sauce. you can only blame yourself if it sucks. a good hot pot place will have your own burner for yourself and if you want to try something else they have korean bbq to grill also but that takes longer than hot pot. best food for winter time to warm you up.
I love that you talked about past struggles with Asians and black people. It's a sad world, and the world is still the same there's a handful of genocides going on as we speak
I love these videos. I'm what most people would call a privileged white guy, but videos like this help end racism, I think. Keep bringing these two back if you can!
One thing i always wanted places that have sauce counter to have is small disposable spoons where you can taste abit of the sauce before making your own. Every hotpot/shabu places i go their peanut,sesame etc sauce taste different. I think it can also avoid alot of sauce wastage where people just kept making one after another.
Even most Chinese who often eat hotpot don't know this, here's the real way to make your sauce: You don't! That's right, you don't make sauce, the real way is to have some tiny sauce dishes in front of you, each with only one ingredient in it, every time you eat something you put on the exact ingredients you want for that particular thing. This is also the way to eat sushi. Never mix all ingredients into just one sauce.
I like the part where the chefs get to tell their stories. And I feel like you should use the spicy side for the intestines and pork broth for seafood (like how sichuan hotpot mainly serves intestines vs canton hotpot mainly serves beef and seafood).
Kind of interesting that you focus on that part and not the part where they're being unfairly treated in the first place. How about...why can't these people stop being hateful in the first place? People DON"T deserved to be hated on for literally the color of the skin. It's not victimhood to call out things that aren't right. People can do both. They can still address the HATE and keep doing what they are going to do. I'm glad they made sure to address it - you notice that?! They didn't skip over the HATE. They didn't try to act like it was OK.
abalone is delicious! and idk about the octopus being weird lol its just an octopus. pork blood is also good when grilled with a semi sweet glaze. its used in Filipino "dinuguan" dish, which is one of my favorites.
Wondering if the octopus was overcooked. Done right it can be tender with a slight crunch. Same with the abalone, you need to slam it on a hard surface to tenderize it before cooking. With either the window to keep them tender is really small, it can be perfect then 30 seconds later they become shoe leather.
Best steamboat part is the Organic Vegetables Varieties, over 10 kinds. Steamboat Vegetables. 1. Oyster Mushroom 2. Enoki Mushroom 3. King Mushrooms 4. Brown Shimeiji 5. Watercress 6. Water Spinach. 7. Spinach. 8. Iceberg Lettuce 9. Tong Ngo. 10. Shitake Mushrooms. MEAT: Pork Innards (intestines, stomach), Duck Intestines. Seafood: Jelly Fish, Prawns, Squid. MEAT BALLS: 1. Fish Balls. 2. Salmon Balls. 3. Scallops. 4. Octopus. 5. Abalone. 6. Oysters. 7. Can Clams. 8. Shell Meat slices in brine..... OTHERS: White Soft Taufu, Wantons..... READY TO EAT MEALS........ That is why its best to eat Steamboat Buffet in one price. Economical Place to eat. Ipoh, Perak, West Malaysia. Steamboat Buffet (all u can eat) at RM50-55 (US$11.30-US$12.40) include Drinks....
Abalone is more of a symbolism for prosperity gold nugget, eaten during Chinese New Years, but these days like Shark Fin very few Chinese eat it, only the wealthy ones or extremely special occasions. Most Restaurants serve immittation Shark fin soup and abalone. Personally I have no cravings for abalones, tried it a few times before it tastes like Meat with mushroom texture lol (like a chewy portobello or the cooked soaked dried chinese mushrooms)

Hot pot is insanely good, and great way to enjoy with friends and family. And yeah a good sauce is key
The art of cooking is the heart of cooking
Kudos to anyone willing to try new things.
Had my first HotPot experience last year and i swear it given me something to live for.
Japanese hot pot is called nabe (鍋). The big difference is most nabe soup stock is seafood/konbu based.
I'm loving this collab! 8:12, chef had to get in on the hotpot 😂
Hot pot became such a huge thing overseas that restaurants brought them to some areas in the States where you could get personal hot pots
Bringing culture differences together and asking some real questions about it
This is good stuff, especially when it got down to the talk about the past and holding on or dealing with your cards and moving forward.
U can show the to add some of the soup to the sauce bowl, dilutes the flavor a bit but also retains the soup flavor into the sauces
Loved this❤

This whole time I thought hot pot was a Korean meal, so cool to know the origin!
not sure if ya'll touched on the wang lao ji before but I imagine chefs loved it. IMHO it's like sweet tea but better
I've been wanting to try hotpot badly, we have a spot close to me, might give it a try
Y’all are awesome ❤

I love hot pot. If it wasn't for food reviewers I wouldn't have known about a lot of the foods I have tried over the years

Dr. King would be proud

Abalone is so good, and endangered 😊
Abalone is more of a symbolism for prosperity gold nugget, eaten during Chinese New Years, but these days like Shark Fin very few Chinese eat it, only the wealthy ones or extremely special occasions. Most Restaurants serve immittation Shark fin soup and abalone. Personally I have no cravings for abalones, tried it a few times before it tastes like Meat with mushroom texture lol (like a chewy portobello or the cooked soaked dried chinese mushrooms)
bried history lesson caught me off guard
