Hmong mustard greens and hmong cucumber? I love Hmong people but just because you eat it and grow doesn't make it "Hmong". Those are Chinese mustard greens lol. Just because I grow japaleno chili peppers doesn't make them "American Chilis"
I love the Hmong community and their food!
yes
What a beautiful opportunity to share this meal with this wonderful family! Incredible to have learned something about Hmong culture, I hope for many,many more of these!
This is great. I hope we soon see some Hmong recipes in a CC edition !
I love this story–the food looks amazing!
I had good hmong friends when i lived in California ❤Lets hope david chang doesn't copyright the hot sauce 😂
Wow! This is the first time I've seen someone on YouTube cooking and prepping food while wearing a hair net, just the way it should be done.
Love his dad’s prayer! Amen!
Interesting! Never heard of Hmong food before
Interesting! All of the different grilled meat, and sides. ❤❤ thanks ATK, I love this series.
🙏🙏
At first when I seen Hmong I got excited because I thought you were coming to Fresno. But I figured you'd go to Minn.
This was awesome, Bryan!
brings back memories of the clint eastwood movie gran torino where clint isnt eating well and gets invited to his hmong neighbours and he coudnt stop eating
You’re way behind Sonny who took him to his homeland
I have never been to a Hmong meal that didn’t have alcohol. Maybe it’s just the South Carolina Hmong’s
What an incredible experience. Thank you for taking the time to highlight the cuisine of less known immigrant groups.
the food looks so good!
Yummyyyyyyy. This makes me miss my grandma!
What an amazing video with gracious hosts and their guest. The food looks amazing. I will have to learn more about the Hmong culture. Thank you.
You went really easy on him. Where’s the squirrel stew? Where’s the deer poop?😂
4:29 I grew up with a huge, ceramic smoker/grill, just like that one. I am Gen X.🤗From San Diego.
Another thing I miss about SoCal. I am not aware of any Hmong communities in houston.
This video is good on coverage of Hmong people, however id apprecaite it if America's Test Kitchen break away from speaking in foreign language and go right down an specify what language they are speaking in the in video translated sections on youtube
mmm, hmong food. Laab is so good
Traditional Hmong Turkey sausage! I love it!
That looks amazing!
I worked with Lao Hmong people at Lao Family Community in Santa Ana, CA in about 1980-82. There were frequent Baci's (a couple with General Vang Pao in attendance) and I loved the food. The hot sauce was frequently beyond any hot that I had ever tasted! This was my introduction to Vietnamese food and Thai food at that time as well. So grateful for the many wonderful memories of the Hmong people I worked for and with.
