If you use Tahini as a sub for Chinese sesame paste you may want to add a tiny bit of sesame oil to it. For Chinese sesame paste the sesame seeds are roasted a bit longer than for Tahini so it has a slightly stronger flavour than Tahini. Most groceries carry sesame oil so it is easy to find.
A day with a visit from Lan Lam is demonstrably better than one without.
I am a simple man. When Lan drops a new video, I click it immediately. Always dropping game changers 😎
You remind me of my HIGH SCHOOL columbia CHEMISTRY TEACHER. I don't remember which direction and part of Chaiwana. – Weast Korean
YES ❤ That's kinda my personal challenge, to cook tasteful food with less meat. When I research about it, I find lots of recipes trying to sneak in veggies in meaty dishes, but this is totally different.
I try to go vegetarian sometimes, but I miss the savoriness of meat. Lan, thank you so much for this video!
What brand of noodles are those and where can I get them?!
Adding more meat to these recipes will make them taste even better 😋
what type of noodles did she use?
13:35 That should be two tablespoons of lemon juice.
Let AI teach vegan recipes, stick to just good food!
I use fish sauce instead of keeping anchovies in the house.
Those Greens are gorgeous!
i love how on every lan video, the comment section is just everyone gassing her up
dan dan noodles is such a great dish for a quick lunch, I normally make a batch of seasoned soy sauce to keep in the fridge so it's just a matter of throwing some chili oil, soy mix, and sesame paste together with the pork.
So, we're just not going to talk about the cheesecake(?) at 10:50?😏
Puerto Rican stewed rice over beans, aka <<arroz mamposteao>>, is another of these. It calls for something like 4 oz deli ham
Home grown collards are the best. When picked young they are so tender we use them as salad greens, stem & all. I almost never have ham hocks so I use bacon instead. Or meatless with homemade broth.
Now I'm hungry 😋
High carb processed food is not the answer.
Lan Lam–Just when you thought your day couldn't get any better! 🥰☮
would love to see a higher ratio of vegetarian and vegan content / recipes!! I appreciate the concept of reducing meat forwardness in this video.
😍
Outstanding presenter! I learned a few good tips also.
For the past 33 years, I have been getting loads of flavor with no meat at all. There is plenty of umami available in the plant world.
Only wish the recipe was there…unlocked!
Lan is the absolute best.
Bring back carbs!!! Rice, pasta, beans, potatoes, potatoes, noodles!!!!
grow really hot peppers. you can use just a little and it will amp everything up.
I enjoy most of the videos at ATK but Lan, yours are truly “can’t miss” for me. I learn a lot and almost always immediately buy ingredients to try what you’re showing us.
LAN is The Best!
It'd be nice if people realised this series is about teaching cooking techniques and knowledge, and not "I'm telling you what to do with your life"!
I never actually made chili oil myself, this is making me think I need to get to it
