  1. I wasn't a big fan of Chinese food when I was younger, and I don't cook much. I grew up in New Jersey, but lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for about 9 years in my 30s and 40s. There out west I really loved the quality of all the different Asian cuisines, as well as the great Asian markets where I could get the very best ingredients, I was overwhelmed by the different kinds of seaweed, mushrooms, seafood and fish roe and noodles/wrappers available, I haven't seen anything like it back here in New Jersey where I live now. This show makes me want to cook, and go to Hong Kong! Thank you so much for your presentation!

  2. You two are so good together and I suspect that Kevin learned to cook at his father's knee. I used to live with a woman from Taiwan and she occasionally made steamed pork dim sum She also did a sweet one with peanut butter in it. Wish I had paid better attention to the process instead of just enjoying the output.

  3. Like watching you interaction with your father, very nice. Recipe sounds wonderful! I will be trying this. The gelatin tip is also nice to know, I knew of the cornstarch tip so using both will be a bonus.❤️

  4. This made me so hungry my tum is going gRRrrr. If I could have a half dozen of these with a couple turnip cakes and some lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice I’d be really happy. I gotta have the chili oil though. I’m addicted to it and put it on nearly everything.
