It's new year again and I'm going to use your recipe. I never really learned how to make nian gao, yet it's so interesting hearing Cantonese from Mama Lin and it sounds just like my mom speaking.

Traditional Chinese soy sauces don't have any wheat added - that's an innovation by the Japanese - so you just need to look for one that doesn't use any during processing (and there's also Tamari, among Japanese soys, is typically also safe) Homemade Asian food from scratch is more or less gluten free, and buckwheat - despite the name - is unrelated to wheat, so some noodles such as genuine soba with pure buckwheat are fine. Even when foods are floured, cornstarch or potato starch is common (which isn't native to Asia, but completely ubiquitous today) I know this was two years ago, but I hope you can find ways to enjoy the amazing variety of foods Asia has to offer

Thank you for sharing the recipe. Can Mama Lin teach us how to make Toisan style Cailong too. Similar to Ham Sui Gok? Beginning of your video I saw a picture of Cailong and Ham Sui Gok. Thank you.

Thank you for the great idea of adding ginger powder to the batter, I love to see how you intergrade two different generations and cultures together to make things more beautiful.👍👍👍

Thank you for making this super detailed recipe! I appreciate the photo comparisons for overcooked vs undercooked, and for with kansui and without. I made this last year and it was perfect! I followed your mom's version and used all water instead of coconut milk (which I think it more traditional where I'm from)

When we are at work my dad sticks the slices in batter and deep fries them. It's yummy.

Hi, thank you for your recipe! Can i just leave the coconut out?
@hellolisalin Жыл бұрын
you can replace the coconut milk with something but you can't leave it out because there won't be enough liquid.

Thanks for teaching us how to make the Nian Gao, can you tell me if your mom is using fresh ginger?
@hellolisalin2 жыл бұрын
It's ground ginger! That said, you can use a bit of zested fresh ginger if you like, but probably less.

I just bought this at the Chinese grocery market randomly out of curiosity without knowing what it was. At first I thought it was like American cake. 😂 Then when I peeled off the film and put a spoon there it was "hard" haha. Then I was a bit confused. ⁉️ Then I scraped a bit with my finger nail and said what the hell is this?? Thanks so much, I will try it out and fry it!

Looked up your video because I wanted to know how to cut and cook the thing. My wife got a turnip and brown sugar cake from her company in Macau this year. Now I am staring at the brown sugar cake wondering how to properly cut it into squares, dip in egg, and fry without having the cake stick to everything (stick to the knife, cutting board, pan, spatula, and me fingers, oi! 😭😂) happy new year 2022 everyone 😃

Once the cake chills, it won't be too sticky on the knife and chopping board.

Thanks for the tips on water level and heat settings!! I kind of messed up the second time I made it cuz I used too much water to steam 😩 kind of bummed, but hoping it still taste good!!

It will still taste great! As a matter of fact, if you leave it overnight, some of the wrinkles will level out a little
