These Spicy Noodles almost KILLED DUDE - Dan Dan Noodles

[@FloLum]

Thankful we can add as little or as much of the fiery sauce as we can handle! Addictively yummy! Happy Sunday! 💕

[@williammatthews2948]

The expression on Dude's face needs to be on a calendar. Lol. Happy Sunday to you as well.

[@CdnChopSuey]

Omgosh! I just noticed that you’ve been a KZbinr for 10 years. Congrats on this amazing milestone! 🥳 💪 You and Dude are a dream team. Simple, ordinary and Joyful 🚀 🚀 😊

[@temperatechimp]

Hi Flo, I've got a couple of questions I'm hoping you have the answers to, please: 1. I'd like to substitute the minced pork with minced fresh shiitake mushrooms. How much would I have to use? ...aaand 2. Can I use a dry vermouth if I don't have Shaoshing rice wine? Thank you in advance! 😊

[@Rusty6450]

Love all of your recipes and I will continue to subscribe to your channel. I love fiery spice dishes that I grew to love when I lived in Minneapolis. When I am at Thai and other Asian restaurants and they ask me how spicy I would like (1-5), I reply with 'brown skin 10' (was told to say that by an Asian friend). I keep learning from you and Thank you.

[@carolinetheberge4671]

Love your take on economical cooking with substitutes when it works. Simply wonderful!💕 Thankyou Flo and Dude!

[@CdnChopSuey]

Always fun watching people suffering through spicy foods. Thanks for taking it for the team Dude!

[@FloLum]

🤣 Oh, he enjoyed it!

[@borgullet3376]

Dude is from Malaysia but his stomach is from Wisconsin, lol. Dude thanks for "takin' one for the team" you're my hero bro ; ) Great Dish Flo ( as always ) - Stay Blessed Team Lum

[@FloLum]

🤣 Too funny!

[@nightops9526]

I somehow know this 'Dude' with a US accent originally from Malaysia.

[@KL-er7yi]

I bought chop stick set today because of your channel. As a seasoned cook, there is something about watching you using them to beat an egg or meat mixture that made me want them. And way to take one for the team Dude. 😜

[@ellatoler9706]

Have to chuckle, Flo was one of three folks who inspired me to get chopsticks to learn to eat with, and those jumbo jobs for cooking with. She is inspirational.

[@emihayashi7725]

Same here, but wondering if chop sticks are dishwasher proof. (Some say wood is not)

[@KL-er7yi]

@@emihayashi7725 I wouldn’t put them in DW unless they are silicon or poly. I don’t really have a way they would survive in my DW anyway as they are to thin and weightless they would be tossed around … pardon the pun….like chop sticks. 🤣😂

[@mistergrendel32]

You could just wash them by hand in about 30 seconds couldn’t you? 🤔😜

[@williamj3843]

Dude, thanks for taking one for the team. Flo, another winner!

[@jonesbub1]

I LOVE Sunday afternoons with Flo and Dude Dude!! I must say how impressed I am with the size of the first taste. There’s no scaredy cats in this crowd!! I honestly laughed out loud while watching Dude’s initial reaction!. The dish looked sooooo tasty and I love how you both explain it for all of us. TFS, Sharon🤗

[@FloLum]

So sweet! Thanks, Sharon!

[@nurseattle]

I cringed as he took that big bite after seeing how much chili sauce was in it. He is BRAVE!

[@brianlawson363]

Hello! This has been one of my "catch up on all things FloLum" vids. I have been under the weather with late season allergies, and your video stream has kept me company. I wanted to say THANK YOU for giving me the freedom to not be bound by the: authentic or not at all" trap that keep so many from enjoying food. It has been a blessing! Peace and blessings.

[@KimiW]

After just watching a couple of your videos, I can't help but luv you two already. Great easygoing personalities, living up to your 'library kitchen' sign: simple ordinary joyful. Sweet. Thanks for inviting us into your home and simplifying Asian eats with your methods and recipes. Chef's kiss out of Toronto!

[@deltas4114]

I've been wanting a spicy noodle dish and this may just be what I've been looking for, yummy. Thank you Dude for the taste 👍, and Flo thank you for the information today. 🙏👍💖 May your family have a blessed day.

[@retiredrnmamawc4207]

This has peeked my palate enough to make it tonight. You are a very good teacher Flo! Thank both of you ❣️

[@daviddowling9830]

You could cook on the roof for all I care,your presentation is just so calming and I might add,the food looks scrumptious

[@kkww8944]

OH MY GOD FLO WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY COOKING LIFE!!! Love your recipes and they are always FAB!

[@rosariovillasenor9885]

Hey Flo you are cooking so good and I begin to enjoy cooking again! You are truly a wonderful cook and made life bearable and beautiful especially when feeding your family.

[@casantin1]

Can't wait to try this!!!❤❤

[@Jean2235177]

Oh yes! This looks absolutely divine!

[@floridalady9308]

When I had Covid not only could I not taste or smell, but I couldn't experience heat. I bought the Chinese chilli oil with peanuts and put a lot in my noodles. I was going for sensation and texture since I couldn't taste anything. I thought that maybe it was a weak batch because there was no heat, my nose didn't even run. I found out later that night that yes it was super hot. Hope Dude did okay.

[@peterdoe2617]

Haha! Good one! I get your point!

[@juanrodriguez-rv7wb]

This is my favorite show delicious simplicity and funny thanks so much

[@colleenbeamer6403]

Wow! This looks amazing! I don't typically cook with ground pork, but this is one recipe I would try. 😋😋😋😋

[@charlottecastillonirenberg8020]

Flo, I love your dishes and you make them seem so easy , Thank you 😊 I was from Malaysia too ! Love watching you and your husband Introduce each one 👍🌹🌹👍

Looks amazing thanks for sharing your recipe with us

[@kimmmaknerhof3328]

Love love love your recipes, thank you so much for your expertise Flo.

[@SeniorJohnQPublic]

Szechuan Pepper is not a true pepper plant , even though the seed pods and corns resemble green and red pepper corns. They come from the Chinese(Japanese, or North American) Prickly Ash. It produces a numbing reaction in your mouth and tongue that enables one to actually taste the flavor of various types of spicy chilis without feeling the burning heat of Capsicum. Chilis have incredibly different flavors. In the case of the Japanese prickly ash, the young leaves are eaten raw or as an edible garnish to dishes or made into a dry powder called Sansho, which is often sprinkled on grilled Unagi Eels. It has a somewhat of a minty taste but savory and not sweet. However, It’s the Chinese Szechuan variety of Prickly Ash that has the ability to numb one’s tongue. Personally, I love the use of this aromatic/spice in Chinese Chili oil when it is made into Chongxing Hot Pot. I’m tempted to try making a Western style chili & beans with really hot chili peppers and add the Szechuan Pepper Corns to see how it might be perceived by Americans. Who knows.

[@ruthm8931]

I am loving these Sunday videos and the yummy looking dishes you have prepared! I am so going to try making this, but with a whole lot less of the chili oil, I'm not brave like Dude LOL! I will look around for that sesame paste but thanks for the suggestion of using peanut butter. Thanks for another great video and recipe!

[@TimberWolfCLT]

Kudos to Dude for "taking the hit". I love spicy noodles and am definitely going to try this recipe! Nicely done...

[@anitadunphy7837]

Hope Dude is okay, what a trooper. Thanks for the recipe Flo. Stay well and safe.

[@gerrysilver9480]

I tried your soy sauce Chow Mein recipe and while I admit I put a little too much soy sauce we enjoyed the wonderful noodles . Thank you for all the wonderful recipes, I love watching you.

[@cafelate9515]

Thank you for your Chinese cooking videos. I am Chinese from NY. I don't know much about the Chinese in Vancouver Canada as well. Thank you for showing parts of the beauiful Canada on your videos. I love Canada. And due to Covid we can't drive up there to visit more often. I hope when this lifts I would like to visit your home area. Also thank you for giving some faith thru out your videos. I am also a Christian saved since my teenage years. Very difficult to attend live services at this time. Stay safe and good luck to your youtube ventures.

[@edwardrodriguezvado7393]

Thank you Flo for this dish I love it super spicy. From Miami, Florida Good Luck in the future.

[@rayradiance666]

Lol! Thanks for revealing dude’s real name, I didn’t know what it was and great job on doing restaurant style dishes at home, honestly, so much easier to just eat at home unless it’s a social Event and friends get together.

[@ThumperKJFK]

😂😅👍👍🔥🔥 Sorry if your system is a bit sensitive to HOT fire food, But Thank you. You gave a spot on to all the levels of Umomi. Thank you Dan, and Flo. What a wonderful stack of content you have. Not just another cooking show, this is down home cooking unplugged. I live in NYC on the other coast. And am blessed to be one short train or bus ride to a very mixed Asian market of small Mom and Pop tiny stalls. It's fun to get to know them to the point you walk in eyes wide and get Hello, Did you Eat today? I love shopping and asking, what can I do with this, and that. Wow, now your opening up the simple and easy way to save money and feed your family and not spent money on going to the car, finding parking. Thanks Guy's.

[@russellramsay1947]

Flo, Dude.....another home run. BRAVO

[@Durufle68]

I LOVE chili oil! It is the best. Great recipe. I cannot wait to make this.

[@peterdoe2617]

About the wok: my one is a 4,5kg cast iron one. That no glass top can bring up to temperature. I bought myself an induction heater: works fantastic! About the veggie mixture: it's what I do, too: we have this fantastic asian grocery store here in Pinneberg, Germany. I try to buy everything I can there. Just to make sure to keep 'em alive. If they don't have it: sometimes they will order it for me. (Always worth, asking!) Greetings from the far north of Germany!

[@theroguetomato5362]

We use fresh Szechuan peppercorns. It's numbing but it's VERY aromatic. Very floral.

[@gafairbanks2434]

Wow, I say that alot ! " Ancient Chinese Secret !" Your dishes are so tasty it's midnight here and I began cooking one of 'em...so yummy!

[@gigishepherd.lgmshepherd1977]

I love watching you cook . You're not pretentious you tell us the truth you're really awesome I don't know if anybody tells you that but I'm going to say it and I've only been cooking Asian dishes for about a year now and I'm in 60 I've always loved Asian foods . So I've managed to slowly make me a pantry of like the hoisin sauce my fish sauce is oyster sauce and all those things that are essential for aging cuisines and today I've already learned something else about the sexual and powder I had no idea so I just feel like you're such a blessing and I just want to thank you and I can't say nothing thank you for you just keep doing what you do. ❤️ God bless

[@waterstreeter]

I made this a short time ago and it's great!!!! I couldn't find the Su Mi Ya Cai so I just omitted it. I did use a different noodle because I had some I needed to use up. I used Casarecce pasta that I got in a 6-pack of assorted pasta from Costco. I've so far only had like 3 tbsp. or so of it but it tastes really good! I love Sichuan pepper! I can only imagine the cumulative effects of it when I eat a whole bowl of it! I did use baby bok choy for the greens and the precut green onions I got turned out to be bad so I tossed them! Thanks again for a recipe I know for a fact that I'll make again! Maybe I'll get the stuff at Amazon I couldn't find but we'll see!

[@TarZan49]

Poor Dude. Usually I envy him but today...I felt sorry for him until the second bite. Looks yummy.

[@FloLum]

🤣 He enjoyed it!

[@SeniorJohnQPublic]

I loved Dude Dan’s reaction to his first bite. His explanation about the numbing effect. I personally love Dan-Dan noodles. Thank you.

[@debbieduger5094]

Omg Dude. Thanks for the great laugh!!!! I could tell it was going to be hot when Flo kept adding more of that paste. Lol

[@waterstreeter]

Looking very forward to making this!!!! I'll see if anything is on Patreon if I can log on but if not I'll do it the way I used to do it by watching and pausing the video and making a wordpad document! Thanks for another most excellent recipe!!!!! Also thanks for putting the link to the "preserved Chinese vegetable" below! I printed out the description from Amazon and will visit my international grocer tomorrow! Take care!

[@FloLum]

Recipe will be available on Patreon tomorrow. 😊

[@waterstreeter]

@@FloLum Thanks! I made my own printout but at least after waiting a bit I was able to log onto Patreon! I made my own! Going to my international grocer tomorrow for a few things! Can't wait to make it!

This looks sooooo good 😋 I love spicy food. And I'm fortunate to have Asian markets near me in Los Angeles.

[@paulnijsten8390]

Hi from the Netherlands. Mum was Belgian, so my cooking is slightly oriented towards France. The Missus is Japanese, so I keep well away from Asian cooking. Her territory. I really enjoy cooking, and I have been serving our lot mostly French, Italian and Indian. I'll do Asian next week. Rule Canada! From a 55 year old Dutch guy.

[@paulnijsten8390]

disabled also, allow me to mention. They say, you get used to a wheelchair. When?! That would be the effing question. Anywayz, keep up the good work.

[@davidapps2605]

That looks absolutely yummO ! 😍🤗

[@ALWhiteAuthor]

This looks so good. But I'd have to use my own chili oil. I make it with ghost, Thai bird's eye, Habanero and Carolina reaper peppers. My tolerance for spice is just freaky high. But it has taken me 40+ years of spicy food to hit this point.

[@FloLum]

😳 Oh my goodness, that sounds insane! You sound like Dude’s dad… needing some sort of chili condiment with every meal.

[@ALWhiteAuthor]

@@FloLum I do actually have ghost pepper and Carolina reaper chili powder that you can get on Amazon that I use for almost everything.

[@antonydevadass4856]

I suspected Dude was from Malaysia, thanks for confirming. All the best to both of you

[@aakamyhrs863]

What brand of chili oil are you using?

Where did u buy the spicy chilli sauce

[@Mark1405Leeds]

My favorite dark soy sauce is the Pearl River Bridge brand! I don't think there is a better one!

[@408Dolly]

I want to learn to cook on a wok. Is there a certain kind wok you can recommend for a beginner?

[@FloLum]

I’ve had this wok for over 20 years. It’s stainless steel and hand crafted. I was young then and didn’t know how to use a wok so did not want to go with the traditional carbon steel as I was afraid not being able to care for it as well (it’s like using cast iron). I did try using a non stick flat bottom initially but it does not give you the same flavour as it cannot be heated high enough and the flat bottom does not allow you to move the food around as well. But it also depends on what type of stove you have. Hope that helps.

[@darcydwong]

This was fantastic! Do you have a recipe for Singapore style curry rice noodles?

[@misscreant]

Hello, Flo! Do you think a scoop a vegetable Better Than Bouillon would be a decent substitute for the vegetable ingredient?

[@FloLum]

I probably wouldn’t even bother. But you can use a veggie broth in place of the chicken broth.

[@lisajel52]

I’ve been making Dan Dan Mian for 30+ years. My husband found the recipe in the Seattle Times in the mid 80’s. It was our sons’ most requested dinner recipe. I always used peanut butter too and our version had 5+ (or more) of green onions. It’s still a favorite!

I just now made it! Only deviation was that I tossed in a cup of thinly sliced mushrooms, used up the last of my few green beans and less 🔥🚒 (cuz I saw smoke coming out of Dude's mouth AND ears! ...."I'm not dead" 🤣) SO yummy! Smells like T.O. Chinatown resto around here. Thanks again for the simulated visit (you 2 are so relaxed/intelligent yet down-to-Earth) and your 'approachable' style of instruction!
