Thanks and also thanks for watching again.

[@sscott2747]

I just wanted to say thank you for this recipe. We got some Dungeness crab for Christmas and we wanted to try our favorite way of eating it. It turned out so good and almost exactly how we eat it at our favorite Chinese restaurant here in NYC “Congi Village”. So thank you so much for posting it. Happy Holidays wherever you are!!!

[@HAPPYWOK]

You are so welcome! I am glad you founds this recipe to your expectation. Merry Christmas.

Best video on you tube.which gives english subtitles of ingredients. Loved it chef.god bless you.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks for appreciating my video style and Thanks for watching.

A classic family recipe. My mother, in place of rice wine, used one shot of Gilbey's London Dry Gin (40%) because she found that it compliments the ginger and green onion taste. Now it has become my favourite, one day I have to try myself!

[@HAPPYWOK]

Look like your Mom, a good cook. Nice to know how she substitute rice wine. Thanks for watching.

@@HAPPYWOK I made it and it was delicious as I remembered. I was unable to obtain hot bean paste or Chiank vinegar. Kudos to you sir for the recipe!!!

[@HAPPYWOK]

@@Jdatruth I am glad you able to modified the recipe and still come out delicious.

[@wemcal]

Looks so delicious...

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes it looks mouth watering. Messy to eat, but who care, LOL... as long as we enjoy the delicious crab meat inside with gingerly taste. Thanks for watching.

[@johntran1876]

My father loves this dish. Thank you! I'd rather make it at home than buy it from restaurant. Saves me money!!!

[@HAPPYWOK]

WOOOOAAAAW I LOVE CRABS ! ! ! Hello from FRANCE MY FRIEND ! ! !

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks . Bon Appeti . my viewers from France. Thanks for watching. merci .( BTW my elder sister lives in Nabone, France )

[@grandpacavendish4422]

Looks terrific, Chef. Two questions. Is there a western equivalent of Chinkiang vinegar, that you could suggest? Can this be made with fresh lobster? One of my favorite dishes, from the 1960's, was lobster cantonese (made with fresh lobster, in the shell). Thank You. Ed

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks for appreciating this cooking. Exact equivalent to chinkiang vinegar? Sorry I have not try western type yet. Maybe cider vinegar may work? Lobster instead of crabs? yes, it will work too. Thanks for asking and thanks for watching.

[@yaminsta6460]

You can get Chinkiang vinegar in Chinese supermarkets

[@tendaiphiri3062]

Balsamic vinegar could work. It's not perfectly the same but close.

[@immalivingagain3672]

I would think a white wine vinegar. Or even seasoned rice vinegar would be nice. Its just a thought to help. I know how hard it can be getting items to work for a recipe ✌️😊✌️

[@anon6116]

I think I could smell the ginger cooking ☺️

[@HAPPYWOK]

Really? because next door said so. LOL... Thanks for watching.

I don't do commercial cooking anymore, I retired 10 years ago. Thanks for watching.

[@PinkeeLee]

dungeness crab is perfection. i bet this was the ultimo creation. they are a lot of work to get to what is arguably the best crab ever. so, chef, do you pick and work as you go or get that tasty pile so you can cram forkfuls into your mouth? i do the work and get the pile. drives people nutty.

[@HAPPYWOK]

I agree with you. LOL... Thanks for watching.

[@victoriar7123]

Been looking for this for years

[@evonteoh2721]

Tq so much for sharing wif us this video. Love de way how u started by showing all de ingredients u used for ur cooking so precisely 😁. I wonder if de hot oil splashed out crazily when u deep fried de crabs?

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks for appreciating my cooking video presentation. Deep frying crab in hot cooking oil, doesn't splashed out crazy like when we do with squid. Thanks for watching.

[@evonteoh2721]

[@tendaiphiri3062]

Looks delicious! A video of how to chop this crab into bite size pieces would be awesome because I have no idea how to do that. Is hot bean paste different from chili bean paste?

[@HAPPYWOK]

Next time I will show you guys , how to chopped crabs. Hot & chili bean paste are the same. Thanks for asking and Thanks for watching.

[@cristinapamart2818]

Love your dishes thank you . Today I follow wonton dim sum from your channel xxx🤗🤗🤗

[@cristinapamart2818]

HAPPY WOK yes and thank you xx

[@HAPPYWOK]

Your welcome.

[@itstomis]

This is the one dish in restaurants I’ve always disagreed with. I would rather eat crab or lobster steamed and then dipped in garlic butter (American style, I guess) than this kind of preparation, where almost all the flavor sits on the shell instead of the meat. However I still appreciate learning how they make this dish and I always love your videos.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks for letting me know, how you like your way of preparation. I just like to show the viewers, how this is prepared in chinese restaurants. For me, honestly speaking, I just like it steamed and then cracked the shell , then dipped into light soy sauce + chinkiang vinegar + minced garlic + minced ginger. Thanks for watching.

[@itstomis]

HAPPY WOK Mmmmm that sounds tasty, I will try that next time

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes, it was. Thanks again.

[@JohnSolar283]

Does anyone else hate that clock LOL TIC TIC TIC TIC

[@HAPPYWOK]

Wow, you have very sensitive hearing. My video camera microphone is so sensitive, it pick up ticking sound from our wall clock. Thanks for watching.

[@combatmako]

Oh my ! Is this sauce similar to Lobster Cantonese sauce? I’d like to make Lobster Cantonese for my aunt for New Years as the only Restaurant to make it locally wants $45.00 Thanks for all your wonderful recipes good sir! ✌️❤️😁

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes, you can substitute lobster for crab. And you will have Cantonese style cooking. thanks for asking and Thanks for watching.

[@combatmako]

Thank you sir !! ✌️❤️😁

[@HAPPYWOK]

Your welcome.

[@Sam-yd9uq]

@@HAPPYWOK do you fry the lobster or steam ?

[@Anti_wokeness]

What other crabs can I use for this recipe? I got blue crabs in my freezer right now.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes you can use blue crabs, although that is smaller than this type. If Mud crabs are available, then that would be the best for this type of preparation. Thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.

[@gauriborkar31]

What is pre mixed sauce? Is it. readymade?

[@HAPPYWOK]

That is we mix in advance by our own. To incorporate during fast stir fry cooking. Thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.

[@gettingslim186]

I wish you could have shown us how to cut up the crab, thank you for the recipe

[@HAPPYWOK]

I will include that suggestion in my do list. Thanks for suggesting and Thanks for watching.

[@mikecampion6838]

Looks amazing thank you for sharing this. Curious was the crab cooked before you deep fried it ?

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes, they are steamed and cooked right away after they are caught commercially. But if you got live one, the better. Just follow the same procedure, since they are cooked in few minutes. Thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.

[@dooovde]

Thanks for the video. Always worth a watch no matter what you're cooking! One comment though on the subtitles. In almost every video you make you say "Bring to a boil". I know it might sound weird but in English people say "Bring to the boil". What you say might not be technically incorrect but it sounds odd. I wouldn't mention it only that I see it so often. Thanks again!

[@HAPPYWOK]

Thanks for appreciating my cooking videos. As you know, english is my second language. I am still learning english grammar. Most of the time I check chinese to english translation book. Maybe that book some mistakes? Thanks for watching.
