How to Make Oyster Sauce From Real Oysters

[@ElieBei]

You are such a determined and smart cook. I am always impressed by the amount of thought and research you put into your recipe development. I also love the detailed explanations you provide. You are a true ambassador to your wonderful culture. Please continue making homemade versions of popular Chinese condiments and sauces.

[@Petahx3]

I had no intention of making oyster sauce from scratch cause I’ve never questioned the quality of the store bought. I watched the video out of curiosity but you made it look simple and really convinced me there would be a noticeable difference in quality. I might try it out as an activity with friends/family. Thank you!

[@cheersdeer]

What a fascinating process, and I can't begin to imagine how much research, trial and error you put into this one Mandy. I would love to see a soy sauce recipe just to understand the process in so much detail like you've done here for oyster sauce.

[@mrmagoo4134]

You can KZbin it it's not hard to find

[@iota1175]

@@mrmagoo4134 i mean, true, but since aaron specifically enjoyed the way mandy presented this recipe a soy sauce recipe by another person might not be what he's looking for :P

[@gordongraham7552]

It’s something she might have be taught growing up… not teaching her self from scratch.

[@newsupdatemasaladaar3899]

Nice

[@sanwiles777]

Mandy, you are the absolute best instructor on KZbin! Your recipes are so easy to duplicate because you give such perfect step-by-step instructions AND explanations! You are the best! Thank you for making Chinese food sooo approachable for us!💛🥰

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

You are so welcome!

[@overseastom]

I think this is Mandy's best video so far. I don't necessarily mean best recipe but rather, that it perfectly demonstrates how committed she is to assessing all the varieties of a recipe and then fine tuning the process for us, all while making it seem absolutely achievable at home because she makes the explanation so clear and concise. Of all my fave Asian recipe channels on KZbin (and to be clear - there are a LOT, including greats like Chinese Cooking Demystified, Chef Wang Gang, Marion's Kitchen, Adam Liaw, and Hot Thai Kitchen, amongst others) I think Souped Up Recipes might actually be the best/my fave. Truly, she's already built the channel up so much, and I sooo hope that she absolutely blows up soon, since she deserves any and all accolades that would come her way, in an ideal world. Rock on Mandy - I never thought I'd ever wanna blend oysters, but here I am :P

[@fabioaug.]

Congratulations for the hard work in order to have the final recipe, this is both amazing and impressive.

My new favorite cooking channel!! I appreciate the education by a brilliant, caring teacher. Thank you from Ohio, USA.

In one phrase? "Genius Food Scientist!" Excellent! Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️🌹👍

[@barry4967]

As a (retired) scientist, I was thinking the same thing. I greatly appreciate the time and effort that went in to developing your recipe and this video. When I get near the end of the bottle of sauce I bought, I hope I'll devote the time and effort to follow your directions precisely. The result wil certainly be a Success! Many thanks!

[@nekoneko5376]

Hi Mandy, thank you for showing us on how to make authentic oyster sauce from the scratch! I never know I needed to make this.

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

You are so welcome!

[@candma4240]

This was one of my favorite videos of yours! I am gluten-free and have a number of food sensitivities, so I am SO excited to try your recipe! I would love to see you cook Hoison sauce and fish sauce!

[@GenericMcName]

Fish Sauce isn't exactly cooked, you make it by shoving a bunch of anchovies into a barrel with salt and let it ferment in a basement for a year.

[@dontworrybehappy8080]

@@GenericMcName Nasty!

[@emmeison3028]

Usually fish sauce brands manufactured outside of US are gluten free. Three that come to mind are Golden Boy, Red Boat and Squid Brand

[@kathleenkulman7841]

I’ve found Golden Boy & Squid Brand at HMart in the PNW.

[@candma4240]

@@kathleenkulman7841 That is great to know! I will have to see if we have that in our health food stores in the Midwest. Thank you!

[@susieangelo6410]

Thank you, Mandy, it's amazing how much reference work and effort you took to perfect this homemade recipe to perfection for us. Your calculations are impeccable which yield a beautifully rich natural oyster sauce without chemicals. Superb job, well done indeed! 💜

[@Anxiou5Panda]

I'm glad KZbin recommended your channel. Most of the time, we use or consume stuff without thinking one bit, how it is made or what are the processes and all the other things involved that led to the creation of the final product. You spared us the time to do the research and provided us with great information. Thank you!

[@Nayib.14]

Thanks!

[@catherinebormann2992]

I will probably stick to store bought for convenience, but I do love seeing the process! I had no idea how much actually went into making oyster sauce so it was very interesting. I would absolutely love to see more of this!

[@antoniomoreno4703]

You are an angel. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge.

[@JamieRoberts77]

The amount of research and overall work that you do for your videos is absolutely amazing! I’ll be joining your patreon! Simply wonderful! Thank you, Mandy!

[@Giratina1712]

I can see the quality of the process put into this video... The fact that she made the homemade oyster sauce in a way that makes it interchangeable with the store-bought variation is insanely impressive.

[@chelebel]

Mandy, your videos are so wonderful. I always feel well educated and excited to try your recipes. I loved your reference to Uncle Rodger, he is the King of MSG. Thank you for dedication to showing us how to eat deliciously.

[@stayinurlainey]

mandy!!!! this is an insanely detailled recipe and it's amazing how much research went into this, we really appreciate it!! ❤❤

[@bubbadeaux2962]

Absolutely fabulous, Mandy! Many thanks! BTW, your wok has become the most used pot/pan in my kitchen! It is so versatile, and so easy to clean and use. Love it!

[@manbeard8678]

I learned a lot today! Also your voice is soothing and explanations very clear. Good job!

[@ivyclark70]

Hi Mandy! My goodness! I can't imagine how much time you spent on the experiments. Your analytical style is perfect. Thank you for sharing the process with us, and better still, you've considered the use of the oyster solids too! Amazing! I'm definitely going to try this.

[@euniceshirk9000]

I’ll probably never make the oyster sauce, but I am so happy to know how it’s made, thank you!

[@MarkAlbert]

Thanks a lot Mandy! It is amazing how much research you did and the information you were able to obtain about the making of commercial oyster sauce. Then you must have spent a lot of time creating your own and superior recipe. You really impress me, and I always wondered what goes into oyster sauce. Based on your earlier recommendation, I already use the Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce that lists oyster extractives as the first ingredient. When I have time, I will use your recipe to make my own oyster sauce and look forward to comparing it to the other one.

One friendly reminder: Taste taste taste!!! espeically before seasoning. noticed all salt have different saltiness, I used some fine iodized salt and only had to add 3 tea spoon of salt at the end to make it as salty as store bought oyster sauce. Please taste before and during seasoning and don't blindly follow recipe!
