Already subbed. Will have to check out the new one.

[@TheDarkLink7]

Oh and BTW thanks for taking care of the telescam. At first I had seen it and when I clicked on it. I was just about to report and block. The second I had looked a little closer to make sure I wasn't replying I was like "Oh shit.... this IS Brain responding." so yeah. Thnaks KZbin for showing me the scammer AND NOT Brain. Thanks for having me almost block the actual account.

[@clothokaftan]

funfact: that chef isn't even using a wok (rocket) stove, typically anything cooked in a wok should be cooked with a wok stove to get it screaming hot in a hurry, which is where the wok hay comes from, but in this case he just used a standard burner stove with a big burner on high. this is also probably why he took an astonishing 20 minutes just to cook egg fried rice (or as he calls it yangzhou fried rice), it should have been done in 10 minutes with a wok stove. considering who he works for it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he couldn't afford to buy a proper wok stove because of all the graft going on in the ccp. (for reference, look up: "water in china's rocket force")

[@SparktehFox]

Please please PLEASE show Frenchie the Beef Bourguignon Burger from Alex!!!

[@jabonya]

For how they made fried rice back then was done by spinning the rice in a cloth.

[@visayo]

when frenchie said "i think we could do that" and brian agreed, i legit thought for a sec they meant that they could get a passport from the black market 😂😅

[@marcusdire8057]

Same.

They are chef, it's easier to copy techniques. Also, pretty sure they can go there any time they want.

[@camillelively]

Same!

[@GeekpinEnt]

Yurp

[@yuugael4010]

The video editing/cutting is very intentional kudos to the editor Lol

[@AsianDoug]

I think the wetness problem is because Chef used the same recipe as he would on his actual wok burner. Here, he's using a portable stove, which I can only assume is way less powerful than the one in the kitchen. He should have reduced the amount of liquid he used accordingly, or put in less at a time, as it wouldn't evaporate as quickly as with the regular wok setup.

[@rhe3312]

17:08 No, the man said "It doesn't look oily at all."😂 4:06, 8:55 That's the emble of China, not of the Party. The first line says 中国烹饪大师 (Master Chef of China, sth like that), under that is his name. It's a title for the profession. You get it after working as a chef for certain years and passing an exam. I don't think it necessarily means that he works for the government.

[@bowenzhang8661]

Yangzhou is an actual city in China, Jiangsu Province. Sometimes certain dishes in China have their stories, and the commonly accepted story for Yangzhou Fried Rice is it was loved by a Chinese Emperor around 600 AD when he was visiting the area. Now it’s generally a fried rice style.

[@baldie3720]

10:30 Sea cucumbers are echinoderms (same phylum as sea stars, basket stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, sea lilies, and feather stars) and sea slugs are gastropods/mollusks (same phylum as octopus, squids, snails, etc.)

[@avalonnel]

In the real kitchen, the chinese wok heat is very high, so the soup will be instantly reduce to dry flavour coating the rice. So wont make the fried rice soggy but in home kitchen it is harder to make as the heat is not so high.

[@crowdemon_archives]

Yea, restaurant settings are where you can pull some really nuts cooking techniques that involve hellfire lol

[@Thanat0s3166]

Might have lots of broth, but if you listen to the water evaporating, it won't be as wet as we think. My late dad usually does that and it doesn't taste wet but it gives some kind of coating to the rice. Some egg fried rice is too dry

[@yipaaron939]

13:00, in the video that Uncle Roger review uncle Lau’s fried rice, he use fresh cooked rice to made the fried rice. He made some water level adjustment when steaming the rice.

[@LibeliumDragonfly]

Sea slug is actually a mollusk, sea cucumber is closer related to both starfish and sea urchin.

[@friendlyneighbourhoodsteve4087]

I have to very respectfully dissagree that the rice looked 'a bit wet' or just 'wet' as Frenchie would say. To me, it just glistened with the twinkling sheen you only get from a 'soup of the soul' caressing and lovingly coating every precious, perfectly plump little morsel of rice like a penguins feathery bum protecting its fragile egg cargo from the insistent and belligerent cold. That's my opinion and I stand by it!

[@jaysonj9207]

I tried it before it is bit wet but not like Jamie Oliver fried rice and also lot of flavor to it delicious tho.

[@nickmet12]

Just recently watched Uncle Roger fresh vijeo and now you released yours. What a good end of sunday. Thanks love you both!

[@catherinejones5807]

Just watched Uncle Roger’s reaction video reviewing Chef Motokichi making omurice. Would love to see Chef Paul’s reaction to omurice. Even though it’s a Japanese dish, it appears to be a French version of egg fried rice. If you both go to Japan, I hope you can collaborate with Chef Motokichi regarding omurice. I also want to see your reaction to Chef Wang Gang’s other egg fried rice video.

[@KarmasAB123]

Second this.

[@TheBluePhenom]

Was just about to come and mention this. Plus I want to see Paul's responses to the French digs throughout 😂

[@luckymurphy6212]

Man, love Wang Gang, unfortunately he got into some hot water with the CCP about making fried rice and he had to issue an apology and vowed to never make fried rice again as a chef. On another note, I'm awaiting the moment you, Frenchie and Uncle Roger make a collab. Keep up the great work!

[@LtSMASH324]

Is this a joke? Did that actually happen? Lmao

[@alberttang6984]

Yeah, because apparently he made a fried rice video like around a week after the anniversary of Xi's nephew's (or other family member) death, which was rumored to be caused by him making fried rice instead of taking cover during an attack in I think the Korean War?

[@blargvlarg1390]

​​@@alberttang6984 I think he made egg fried rice on or near the anniversary of the death of Ol' Despot Mao's eldest son, Mao Anying, who supposedly got bombed by the Americans after they spotted him and his comrades making egg fried rice, somehow, during the Korean War. Nowadays, there are "egg fried rice protests" held every year and, like with everything anti-government, the CCP more or less block them off the internet and punish those involved.

[@Manskeeeee]

bwahahaha China is a fucking joke.

[@vincentchang2259]

​@@LtSMASH324 No, he got cancelled by some trolls in CCP.

[@alimck3409]

Brian, you should show Frenchie a Vincenzo’s Place video

[@user-kx6qw2nd8v]

He adds the stock so slowly that the heat of rice and wok stopped the rice from becoming soggy yet imparted the flavour. You can tell by the individual rice grains as he tosses that it did not become soggy 👍

[@Mochido89]

Sea cucumbers are echinoderms. Also in that phylum, sea stars and sea urchins. Pretty cool animals.

[@tomi-jon8798]

I've seen it pretty cool to see someone blow Roger's mind

[@TheBluePhenom]

I remember seeing this OG video a while back, and I remember it caused some hot water even back then. But glad you and Paul got to react to this welcomed fried rice respite 😂

[@lunascomments3024]

realistically the fried rice is still cooking on the plate. they still reduce their water on thr plate. so when its on the correct temperature it will be fried perfectly.

[@FleetingReverie]

It's nice to see the broth technique finally getting the spotlight. Always struck me as odd when people call me weird for using broth to flavor fried rice... like water evaporates too, especially fast at small volumes.

[@lexywackess]

Question IS, why then not doing instead risotto or paella or any of the thousands of dishes that slowly cooks rice in broth ?

[@susiebaka3388]

​@@lexywackessdifferent texture

[@lexywackess]

@@susiebaka3388 not if you wet it with broth anyway. Or pilaf rice, there it's less moisty than risotto, and surely somewhat the same as Fried rice with broth. But well, that recipe on the video IS a Real one, if you do that, do it the way you should. If you do regular egg Fried rice, do it regularly, or just fucking do something else. There's enough recipes.

For years now, my boyfriend i will make our Sunday brunch and eat it over your latest videos. It used to be Sandwich Sunday and now it's these videos. It's been fantastic watching this channel's (and our own cooking) growth

[@santiagoperez5431]

This was a really interesting episode, never heard of this style of fried rice and it looks delicious. With that being said, I believe the way that Frenchy reacted to Alex's video was unjust. Alex is extremely passionate about food and he dedicated a few episodes to one dish, its history, the does and do nots, where to go to get the best version, etc. I think Frenchy should watch another video of Alex looking at fried rice, when he practices on how to use a wok. That or when he talks about cabonara. I feel wholeheartedly that Alex is the epitome of the original meaning of amateur, for the love and passion. I can go on, but in short Alex reminds me of Alton Brown and his show Good Eats

[@anthonycasteel]

Great video as always guys! Just letting you know uncle roger just reviewed an Omurice worth checking out. One technique at the end I'm pretty sure will impress you guys greatly! Can't wait to see y'alls next video!

[@GodBroly]

Also it's great to see this technique used by a pro chef I've been doing this with packet Ramen for years it basically turns the broth into a glaze on the rice or in my case noodles enhancing the flavor and making it easier to eat.

[@RJH_LIL]

Howdy from the 10% club. I look forward to this channel and Sywgf. 😊

[@mimichandes]

There were ways to keep things cool, and ice storage was a thing... i don't remember how long ago but at least as far back as the 18th century, Ice cream or flavored ice has been around for at least 200 years. People used to store things in jars and bury them or keep them in underground cellars, it's what they do in Morocco in some places. There are powerless refrigerators that utilize wet sand or mud and clay jars and they can keep things cool. Some cases they would store certain foods in amphorae and drop them into bodies of water or pools, I saw people do this in Japan with fruits and vegetables, they would put them in a bag or just tie them up and secure it to a tree or a heavy rock and let it float in running water. Probably what they did was use rice they had cooked earlier in the day and would store it in a container and leave it in their pantry out of the sun.

[@GodBroly]

You and Frenchie should react to Alex's most recent video, in which he makes a beef bourginon burger.

[@Natelathotep]

Hey Brian. I have a bit of a weird question. When a customer orders a steak or a burger and the waiter asks "how would you like it cooked?", what would happen if the customer replied "not at all."? Would you have to serve it raw? It might be a dumb question but I'm genuinely curious.

[@wowcarnage]

I'd slap it raw on the table, sprinkle some chopped onions over it, call it steak tartare and charge the customer twice as much as a cooked one lol Edit: Typo

[@landonsmith2154]

It depends on many factors, such as the grade of the meat, and how it was stored. If beef tartare is on the menu, then it is likely they could serve it to you raw. (of course they would also be obligated to tell you about the risk of eating raw meat)

[@ChefBrianTsao]

If a server came to me w that request, if I wasn’t busy I’d prob visit the table just to be extra sure.

[@Superintendent_ChaImers]

Chopped unions? I agree. Gotta keep the union down.@@wowcarnage

Hey Frenchie, more accurately, Yangzhou is a city in China. It's not a name a type of fried rice. Felt like Brian's explanation was misleading. Hi Brian, I know you're reading this & not Frenchie. Please convey the message above to him. Thanks heaps, roxta! 🤘 🍻 In conclusion to this recipe, my suggestion is make the soup/stock/broth ahead, strain it, then cook the rice in it. Let that sit overnight, then make this fried rice the next day. That way you know the rice grains will be separated.

I've seen the Uncle Roger vid. before but it seems to me that you can essentially just reduce the soup to a sauce consistency and skip like half the time spent showboating doing wok flipping and end up with a drier end product.
