It always warms my heart to see fathers who cook. My father has never cooked and always treated us as basically maids or wait staff who have to do literally everything for him, so it's wonderful to see a father who's not only passionate about cooking but also making wonderful food to share with the ones he cares about.
In fact, in a lot of chinese families, the dad is pretty often a better cook than the mom, given that a lot of previous generation chinese migrants were working mostly as chefs in restaurants, and most of the chefs were men. Sorry for your familial situation. Hopefully if you find some chinese friends, you'd eventually get to hang out with their families and they treat you to a home cooked diner.
@@jjstarrprod Agreed totally.In fact, your suggestion of him or her to hang around their Chinese friends and usually get invited to join in on their family meals is a good thing.Through food,a medium which all races,irrespective of creed or colour, is naturally familiar with, then we will be able to help one another understand each others culture and hence eradicate RACISM!! and Asian Hate Crime in the states and all over the world.
thats basically male chauvinism my dad, a taiwanese, also kindda but at least he like to cook he had a pretty good point about it you gotta take care of everything all by yourself at some point in life so know how to cook is definitely important
So nice to see Mummy Lau in the kitchen 😀. Everything Daddy Lau prepares is a “labor of love,” especially dumplings 🥟 like the pot stickers, siu mai, joong, won ton... anything that involves filling and wrapping! Truly “Made with Lau. Made with love.” Thanks for sharing this recipe. 🙏
I think what draws people to your videos is the quality time you are spending with your parents. making up for all the lost time they spent working, while you were studying.
This dish has got to be my favourite childhood memories of growing up in Hong Kong. There used to be an old couple who will sell them on the street and is impossible to walk past without getting some. Uncle Lau reminds me of my late father, who loved to cook and watching Uncle Lau is just like watching my late Dad. Such fond memories. Thank you Lau family for making these videos so that younger generations can learn to cook them too.
I love how your parents interact with each other genuine love for sure. We will definitely be making pot stickers as a family in the near future. Thank you for this video.
Look at Mommy Lau having fun with the shapes, and proud husband looking on. So sweet. Love this channel, and I love pot stickers. Maybe now, I'll be brave enough to try to make it myself. Thanks.
Love how daddy Lau looks on while mumma Lau folds the potstickers so proud. Gotta love these two old ppl they are truly gorgeous. Thankyou do another wonderful recipe👌🏾🙏🏾😊
This was a huge hit with my family. I browned them all over in the pan and they were they best we’ve ever eaten. I did add a little garlic, onion, and slivers of carrot to my filing. I made the wonton recipe also a few weeks ago as well.and you do an amazing job of breaking down the steps so that the recipe does come out successfully for the home chefs. I look forward to more recipes and videos.
oh my goodness I love this so much! Yes Mommy Lau!! I'd take cooking classes (even virtual) from your family any day! So beautiful! Thank you for sharing yourselves with us! You all are truly a highlight of my days! xxx
Absolute quality content. Not only an indepth recipe, but grocery tips so I can make it properly myself. Great stuff and I love the family-style vibe you create.
The chopping techniques are AWESOME!!!! I can’t wait to try the mincing techniques! So cool! And the wrapping techniques were awesome too!! thank you Mommy and Daddy Lau for the amazing recipes!! 🙏🏽🥰
I like Daddy Lau's method of cooking potstickers. Pretty much every recipe I've come across for potstickers, the instructions are to get the bottoms golden brown, then add water and put a lid on it as fast as you can to avoid getting burned from the oil/water reaction. This way seems so much safer and it looks like they still come out really crispy!
This is one of my absolute favourite RUclips channels and I swear, I feel like a part of this loving family when you all sit to eat and enjoy the delicious food prepared by Daddy Lau! 💖
so much work and effort - amazing ! so interesting to see how properly made traditional dishes are made, by someone who knows what he’s doing 😊 thanks so much
Pot stickers, dumplings..if it’s delicious filling wrapped in a dough…I think it just might the one universal food that so many millions, heck billions of people adore. I’ve never had a bad one! It’s universal to humanity, but I think the Chinese have some of the best 🥰🥰🥰 Perogi is pretty amazing, gyoza is addictive. So, I think it’s one food that everyone can love with ease. Your Mom is a pro at her wrapping, too! I’ve gotten hooked on your videos, your family is so wholesome and everyone seems so sweet. Your parents are so cute together. Great job with all of your videos!!
Getting to see all those amazing folding techniques by not one but two incredible- although modest- experts is just fantastic. And so many handy tricks and methods! Thanks so much for this Lau family! Another beautiful video.
these were absolutely incredible!!! soooooooooo much tastier than what i buy in restaurants because i could adjust the amount of garlic , ginger and chill. I like spice, so i made it really spicy and i eat this with black vinegar and chilli oil
Daddy Lau makes mincing chicken look so easy! Ok, I feel brave enough to try this. I find that store bought ground chicken or ground pork is often way too dry and lean so my dumplings are soooo dry. Maybe mincing my own thighs will help with juiciness. I love seeing Mommy Lau cook! Yay!
Daddy Lau comes through! Really appreciate his expertise These are delicious and the video and website are great guides to make at home. 10/10 would recommend.
Awww I love watching these videos of your dad cooking and sharing traditional Chinese cooking especially as he speaks Cantonese and you translate! Your mom and dad are so adorable. I was adopted from China and never learned first hand much about my Chinese culture. These videos are teaching me so much about Chinese cooking and culture. 🇨🇳🥢🥟😊
My first memory of pot stickers was when I was in kindergarten. One day my dad came home late from working overtime, and he brought home a set of pot stickers along his commute. It was crispy with char bottom and full of meat flavors. A drop of oil dripped on my homework and the paper turn from white to transparent. It was the coolest pot stickers memory to this day for me.
I made your potstickers today and everyone absolutely loved them. Than you very much! I made my wraps myself and such a beautiful family, it's wonderful to see a happy family together teaching and interacting together.
Even if i cant understand in your language, i still subscribe you father . I admire those father who knows and do well in cooking... More power to you from Philippines here
It's a labor of love with all the steps he does in all these dishes. So amazing to see the wide range of food your dad can create. Thank you for sharing these recipes and his insights.
Thank you so much for creating this crunchy tasty session. It reminds me of something my mom used to make and I've always wanted to learn those intricate folds that both your dad and mom perform with such perfection!!
I made these dumplings for CNY and used my kitchen aid for fool proof and it worked beautifully. So flavorful. Even kid approved. Thanks! This is the 5th recipe I’ve tried and I really appreciate the steps and explanation. I’m ABC so I always feel I know only half or things so thank you!
Huh, this is really interesting. Most cooking methods I've seen for potstickers are fried first on the bottom and then the water is added to steam them. Honestly, Daddy Lau's method makes way more sense (almost kind of like a reverse sear).
Both technics are equally valid, actually. In Taiwan, they brown it first, then add the water on the sizzling hot pan, so that the steam shoots up instantly before covering it. Then when it's almost ready, they open it up, and let the water evaporate for one last bit of searing.
In Japan, this is called Yaki-gyoza (焼き餃子) which is a Chinese-Japanese dish which is popular after Second World War. Well, I love you put Traditional Chinese Subtitles on this video. Love this.......
Have tried this! Absolutely delicious ! Even the marinade sauce I did not put chicken powder and fish sauce (cause I don’t have) it still taste gooooood!!!
I love watching your videos! They are filled with love. Food is really connecting people ❤️ I would like to try making homemade potstickers but I don't think that store bought dumplings skins are available where I live. Is there something specific about this dough or classic pierogi's dough will be good too? (Flour, warm water and a little bit of salt)
I love watcching these genuine videos! I absolutely love dumplings, it's great to see you family all working & eating together, as a real community. Mama Lau is the superstar here! Keep up the great work & very inspiring to an amateur chef like me. Kind Regards, James 我喜歡看這些正版視頻！我非常喜歡餃子，很高興看到你們一家人一起工作和吃飯，作為一個真正的社區。劉媽媽是這裡的超級巨星！繼續努力，對像我這樣的業餘廚師非常鼓舞人心。親切的問候， 詹姆斯
Thank you for putting up these recipes. My mum recently passed away and she always made wontons and dumplings etc. but I never got round to learning from her. I’ll be trying my hand at these, I hope she’ll be proud of me.
It makes me so happy to see your family working together with such awesome camaraderie! Added bonus that I can make delicious food while practicing my Cantonese 😊
WOW. Just WOW. I love potstickers more than pretty much anything. I’ve always been afraid to make them on my own. I decided to try this (however subbed minced pork for the chicken) and it came out INCREDIBLE. There is NO comparison to frozen store bought potsticker. What a fantastic recipe. Thank you so much!!! Also, I probably watch “I’m better than daddy” 100 times lol. You all are so cute!!!
I am delighted I found your channel! I miss living in China. I love hearing your dad's voice explain dishes that are so special. I cannot wait to try this recipe.
Familia Lau! Wow, just wow. Fantastic recipe, but quite the production for one person. DELICIOUSNESS 👍👏🏻😁 Throughout, was smiling the whole time, thinking how would Papi Lau do this ?!🤣 My fried potstickers not as pretty as yours, definitely need Mami Lau lessons on how to wrap them dang wrappers, correctly! But, scrumptious they were. Now, I have frozen dumplings for DAYS! 😳😂Thanking Familia Lau kindly!!! 👍😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
its really awesome when people share their heritage and culture with others, i'm so grateful to be alive in a world where everyone is allowed to be diverse and share their recipe, beliefs, and stories
For vegetarian vision i used Tofu (Firm tofu dried from water and then crumble it into really small pieces) I also add couple extra table spoon of All purpose flour and an egg they help buying the tofu to the veggie, and season my tofu a bit. I fallow the Sifu Law recipes. ( sub the oysters sauce with vegetarian version) it came out amazing, how i got good recipes for vegetarian potstickers. Thank you Sifu Law !
My wife has celiac so I tried making my own gluten free potstickers once using home made dough/wrapper. They turned out ok, but seeing this made me want to try again
I fold mine like Daddy Lau's, though my aunts do Mommy Lau's method. My potstickers typically are filled with ground pork (I ground myself at 80/20 from pork butt), ginger, and occasionally chives and napa cabbage if I can sneak them in from my kids. Though my cooking method is a little different; I dry fry them in oil till the bottoms start to brown, then I add in water and quickly close the lid to seal for 3mins. I don't flip them, I maintain a crispy bottom but a tender top. I wouldn't mind doing a skirt on them one day.
I just realized that batagor, an Indonesian fried food, is actually a dumpling too after Mommy Lau did the 4 corner fold. Here I am watching dozens of dumpling recipe, yet I missed the one very close to home lol
I am blown away by your dad's skilled use of the clever. I am partially qualified as a professional Chef. My knife technique is pretty good. But I can not work a Clever like that. One other thing that is wonderfully Coincidence is your dad's finger and hand placement. It's Identical to how (Most) Professional western Chefs use their knives. i.e. Indexfinger running down the back of the knife for guidance. and his other hand guiding the side of the knife with the flat side of his fingers between knuckles. This is very difficult to get used to at first. they used to teach us this technique in trade school (Apprentice Chef School). I found it do hard at first. But 30 years on and It's easy and so much safer. My wife does not do it and she is always cutting herself. Thank you, Daddy Lau. I love the expertise and the experience that you share with your videos. I am going to see just how sharp I can get my Clever (Sharper is actually safer people) and see if I can learn to use a Clever the way I use a Standard Chefs/Kitchen Knife.
I am learning a lot from your dad technique potstickers and specialty your parents spoke Cantonese. Thank you so much and from now on I will follow up with your cooking. Thank you Mr. Lau. Wishing your family always happy like that
Honestly I love this channel. Thank you so much for sharing your family recipes and culture with us. I make your dads tomato tofu soup once a week and it’s one of our family favourites now. Forever grateful.
Have you ever experienced your ground pork filling smelling and tasting subtly rancid the next day? I grind my own pork from shoulder and add all ingredients the night before. Meat smells fine and I even microwave a little bit and it tastes fine too. The next day it smells and tastes funky and is inedible to me. What’s going on here? I usually add the following to my filling : soy sauce, sherry, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, scallions, cabbage, sugar, white pepper, corn starch, baking soda. Thanks in advance!
oooohhhh! thank you so much for the potstickers recipe! I love those but never knew how to make them. I was intimidated that they were too hard to make, but as usual, Daddy Lau makes everything look so easy. I still am just blown away all the time by his amazing chopping skills. So fast and every slice he cuts is the same size. Wow!

I am hopeful Mongolian Beef is coming soon, surprised that it hasn't made the cut by now
Zzz
This recipe is amazing, just made them today and they turned out great!!!

Daddy Lau’s gyoza 🥟 recipe was PERFECT!!! 👏

@@birdseyeview219 Great point.
No matter which people, food (and music) are always the 2 main gateway points to help know another culture.
Weird. To me and those I know it is perfectly normal for the dad to cook. My parents always shared the task
thats basically male chauvinism
my dad, a taiwanese, also kindda
but at least he like to cook
he had a pretty good point about it
you gotta take care of everything
all by yourself at some point in life
so know how to cook is definitely important

It's pretty easy although a tad labour intensive, not a little TV and/or a friend to assist can't help :)

omg “IM BETTER THAN DEDI!” my favorite part 😂😂😂 amazing wrapping techniques from Mommy Lau! Thanks for sharing 💕

Replayed @6:45 - @8:21 a few times. That's how love looks like when we're sixty four. Nearly teared!

Warms my heart to see you have such a close and loving family.
I especially like the dialogue clips of your family explaining why certain processes are good, it gives the steps good context.

Huh, this is really interesting. Most cooking methods I've seen for potstickers are fried first on the bottom and then the water is added to steam them. Honestly, Daddy Lau's method makes way more sense (almost kind of like a reverse sear).

How nice to see Mommy Lau showing off her excellent kitchen skills!!! Her dumplings were works of art.
Looks yummy. Can't wait to try it.😊
Would you consider making the Buddhist veggy dish? I remember my mom making it every 15 days.
I would love to see Daddy Lau's garden!

Honestly I love this channel. Thank you so much for sharing your family recipes and culture with us. I make your dads tomato tofu soup once a week and it’s one of our family favourites now. Forever grateful.
Your family is lovely. Thank you for the video.
Thank you so much for preserving our culinary heritage on video! And in Cantonese!!!👍👍👍
How wonderful it s to have husband who can cook! I’m not a bad cook myself, but I wish someone would cook for me!
As a Hispanic man awesome video ! I'm start making this for my son's who love them
I can't speak any Chinese but I love your daddy. Your parents are charming. I understand why you made the channel
They are so sweet and funny too! I can definitely feel the love! Thanks for sharing!
Out of all the dumplings and dim sims, potstickers are one of my favourite ❤
Have you ever experienced your ground pork filling smelling and tasting subtly rancid the next day? I grind my own pork from shoulder and add all ingredients the night before. Meat smells fine and I even microwave a little bit and it tastes fine too. The next day it smells and tastes funky and is inedible to me. What’s going on here? I usually add the following to my filling : soy sauce, sherry, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, scallions, cabbage, sugar, white pepper, corn starch, baking soda. Thanks in advance!
Wonderful family! Thank you Chefs!
oooohhhh! thank you so much for the potstickers recipe! I love those but never knew how to make them. I was intimidated that they were too hard to make, but as usual, Daddy Lau makes everything look so easy. I still am just blown away all the time by his amazing chopping skills. So fast and every slice he cuts is the same size. Wow!
