Binging with Babish: Secret Ingredient Soup from Kung Fu Panda

The secret ingredient is...nothing! Despite that revelation, this so-called secret-soup is one of the most hotly requested dishes in the Babish Culinary Universe. Can we develop deep flavors, hand-pull noodles, and serve up a dish that lives up to Mr. Ping's noodly legacy? Yes, no, and yes.

If I remember Kung Fu Panda 2 correctly, Ping actually did use carrots in his soup (and specifically stopped using radishes). Or, at least, they were among his delivered ingredients.

[@harshbing8123]

No. He was using Radishes in both the first and the second film, the difference is between Daikons and Red Radishes, both belong to the same Family of vegetables but are fairly distinct in taste, Radishes are Red and have a more pungent, Peppery, bitter flavour, while Daikons are white, and have a sweeter, milder, more rounded out flavour. Hence why when he switched from Radishes to Daikons his soup got sweeter.

[@calebsawyer0719]

​@@harshbing8123 I never even experienced the taste and smell of the Secret Ingredient Noodle Soup before in my life. But I guess nothing can go wrong with a nice hearty bowl of soup.

[@avanotalive]

​@@harshbing8123 correct me if im wrong, but didnt he switched to daikon's because po arrived? (since he had to feed po with radishes)

[@nkbujvytcygvujno6006]

@@avanotalive Yeah, but even if he switched to Daikon just because he had no choice, he says “…ever since then, my soup and my life have been that much sweeter.” Implying that ever since then, he kept making the soup the same way. And it’s a better story if Mr Ping chose to change his recipe to reflect that night he adopted Po, and the fact that his life has felt sweeter since then.

I cried watching this, me and my great grandma used to make "secret ingredient soup" which was just base chicken ramen with crystal hot sauce and lemon sauce, I miss her everyday and everytime I make soup I think about her, I obviously use more ingredients but sometimes I just, I make that soup and think about how proud she must be of me, atleast I hope she is

[@CarolynnieGoofball]

I agree with FireBlasta and this also happens to me with my Japanese great grandmother, her name was Sumiko and she married an American solider during WWII and moved to America. Whenever my twin sister and I would go to her house she would make us curry and rice balls (just rice in the shape of a ball, you do it by wetting your hands and putting salt on them, taking a scoop of rice and then rolling it into a ball and then placing it into clear plastic wrap to wrap it up). She died in Dec. of 2018 and my family misses her very much. And I’m sure your gran is proud of you (also that soup sounds very good, even though I don’t like spicy things).

This is so bizarrely timed. My boyfriend has been trying to teach himself the ways of lamian hand pulled noodles. In my efforts to help, I too have been driven mad by the conflicting recipes, tips, and hacks talking about gluten content, pH, etc. We're this close to going to China and attending noodle school. Which is a real thing.

I am Chinese, have lived in the US for nearly two decades. I love this video, made me laugh so hard - it is the combination of me and my western friends when I cook for them; I did not know my cooking was so weird to them. Still, they all love the final product (as long as they do not know what the secret ingredients are, this is a joke), just like when they go to the over-priced over-touted over-crowded Ramen house (they do not know the secret ingredients either, this is true).

[@mincao8003]

@Matis H Yes. There are actually many Generals whose last name is Cao. But the one most famous in the US probably is Genera Tsao for his chicken instead of war. Tsao and Cao are different spellings for the same Chinese character. When people really want to pronounce my last name, I use Genera Tsao chicken to help them get it right.

[@mincao8003]

@Matis H Surely. Cao Cao. 曹操。When in China or when talking to Chinese, if I need to tell others my name, I would say "my last name is Cao, Cao Cao's Cao." Then people would know exactly which character I am talking about. Cao Cao is the most famous person (not just the most famous general) with the last name Cao throughout China's history. But here, in the US, most people wouldn't know that. Are you Chinese?

I work in a dimsum restaurant. We have 6 different locations. When making the skins for dumplings. It's the same as the noodles. The very moister in the air will and the temperature of your hands will affect the dough. So every location has a slightly different method of making the dumplings.

Considering making noodles is a very difficult process, I would actually say that he was wrong and that there is a secret ingredient in the soup; experience. It's a long and arduous process but only gets easier with time and effort, much like a martial art. Kind of poignant when you think about it.

[@TheBaldingPied]

Experience is no secret ingredient though.

[@RamnaViaz]

@Weeb Tendency tai lung defeated himself, po reflected all his anger back at him just like the mirror surface of the scroll, one of my favorite scenes of the movie is when tai lung opens the scroll and yells "there's nothing here!!" as he sees his own reflection, the anger had blinded him so bad he couldn't even see himself, he was nothing, nothing but rage and sadness, I always wanted the writers to bring him back in the sequels and give him a redemption arc or something like that where he finds inner peace and the ability to see himself again because if you really think about it his story is very sad.
