Testing Global Cooking Methods We’ve NEVER Heard Of!

[@fromzero6545]

Hong Kong style Cheung fun usually is swimming in sauce, has shallots for sweetness too, spring onions for some freshness, and they are generally applauded for a minimum skin thickness. The sorted food attempt looks pretty authentic there.

[@SortedFood]

That's great to hear 😀

[@clarissagafoor5222]

Just made me hungry. Am thinking breakfast❤

[@etang77]

And the mistake here is, you actually steam the batter first, then add the filling to roll it up, not steaming it together.

[@wumomodog]

I don't think there usually got shallots in it. In hk, Cheung fun got two type, one in Yum cha, it will have stuff in it. But for normal street vander, there is nothing in it, and serve with a sweet source, peanut sauce and soy sauce.

[@wumomodog]

The only other style of Cheung fun than I knew is canton style which they don't roll it up and just scrape it together

[@MegaFalconGaming]

My uncle makes Cheung Fun at home as my family grew up in Hong Kong - he just does it with small square baking trays inside a wok to steam and he'll stack two trays on top of each other. It's a nice cheap way to do this without buying the specialist equipment.

Hi! Im a chemistry student at uni and the fat washing is actually something we use in the lab!! Because water and oil don’t mix (water- polar- being the alcohol and oil - non polar- being the butter) the washing actually just helps to separate these even further so any polar bits hanging around in the butter get drawn out by the water and vice versa, enhancing the flavour of both!! 💛💛

[@sentientbadge394]

As a chemistry student, why is enhancing the flavour part of it 😂 everyone knows the golden rule in chemistry is to not lick the spoon…

[@Amythebard69]

How does fat washing apply in a chemistry context. Having bits of one mixture go into a different reagent seems like the opposite of what youd want in my laypersons understanding of chemistry

[@a.cunningham4974]

As someone who has their phys chem masters YOU POOR SOD IM SO SORRY

[@epiyawne]

@@sentientbadge394 I think the OP meant that mixing those 2 items infuse flavor into each other because of the flavor compounds' solubility (water and/or fat), not necessarily "enhance".

[@tisamon4070]

Isn't an alcohol like ethanol(H5C2OH) both? It has a non-polar part (H5C2) and a polar part (OH), allowing it to act as a solvent for more things than simply water. Wouldn't that mean that the alcohol dissolves part of the fat and also binds to the fat. Which would explain why part of the flavour of the fat is now in the drink and why some part of the alcohol flavour sticks to the fat. Addition: It would also explain why it needs to be cooled to slow the process so the amount of fat that is solved is reduced.

[@jacobgrodman]

I think you said the fat-washed whiskey wouldn't get a greasy texture as long as the fat doesn't melt during the process, but I made brown-butter washed rum last week with melted butter, then froze off the butter and ran it through cheese cloth and it came out beautifully clear and delicious. Now I'm going to bake some cookies with the rummy brown butter!

[@SortedFood]

Oh wow! Great idea on the cookies.... they're going to taste epic!

[@sammythefox1057]

Sounds amazing!

[@henry3435]

Yeah, generally fat washing is done by melting the fat, adding that to the booze, shaking it up and letting it sit for some amount of time. Then, you put the booze in the freezer to totally solidify the fat (the booze won't freeze!), and pull that off as a block.

[@RedCubTX]

Thank you for the comment. Never would have thought of that and will give this a try too.

[@georgepickle2871]

I've done it with peanut butter to replicate Cocktail Chemistry's Tag-along Old Fashioned. just use some natural peanut butter in a casserole dish, add the bourbon and chill for 1-3 days before running through a coffee filter. Works pretty well and can be cheaper than a bottle of Skrewball.

[@KarinIris123]

I actually do fat washing during the holidays to make butter infused dark rum. I brown the butter and let it get closer to room temp and then mix it with a whole bottle of rum and use an immersion blender to almost emulsify it. Cover in cling film and bring it to fridge cold before sticking in the freezer overnight. Next day I pull the puck on top off and strain it back into the rum bottle. Then when it's butter rum time, just add demerara sugar, hot water, and some of the butter-infused rum. BAM! Hot Butter Rum without having to keep a batter. I got the recipe basically from HowToDrink, just to give credit where credit is due.

[@AniMerDol]

I'm not much of a drinker, but i do enjoy booze in hot drinks in winter. Being Trinidad born, i'm rather partial to rum, so this sounds perfect. Thanks muchly. 👍✌

[@Getpojke]

A favourite of mine that you've never covered is "Eclade", as in "Eclade de moules". Lay a lot of mussels on a board or flat rock, hinge side up. Cover with dry pine needles or hay & set fire to it. The needles/hay burns really hot & fast cooking the mussels in their shell. (You put them hinge side up so no ash gets in). One of the finest beach meals ever & looks spectacular. (You will have to do it outside though.Maybe next time you do a "Washed Up"?) 🦪

[@danielcorreia8752]

Fios de ovos (egg strands) are a Portuguese sweet delicacy made by using a fine funnel to drop very thin egg yolk strands into hot sugar syrup. The delicate strands are then used in several different pastries or eaten on their own. I believe this technique is also popular in some places in Asia, one of the culinary legacies of the Portuguese presence on the continent.

We fat wash liquors for cocktails at my bar all the time! A great technique is to actually heat up the fat just to the point where its liquid, then combine with the liquor, and then freeze it after letting it sit out awhile. Freezing causes the fat to resolidify, so you can separate it from the washed liquor easily.

That was a lot of fun to watch. I almost choked on my drink when Mike said Dim Dum and pointed at himself and Jamie. My Dad used to get mud from the Murray River and we would coat apples and potatoes thickly in it then put them in the camp-fire lowish coals and cook until the mud dried and cracked a bit. We would then get them out crumble the mud off give them a quick wash then eat mud baked apples and potatoes. Something you might need to try next camping trip you go on.

traveller folk in the UK traditionally did this with hedgehogs, baked in clay in an open fire. Once clay has set, break open and it removed most of the spines (quills).

[@vanillablossom]

@@neilthehermit4655 I read about this technique used on hedgehogs by Roma / gypsy tribes in central Europe as well! The book was written in the 50s, I think? And the author said (he spent a lot of time with them and researched them, when after ww2 they were forced to settle), that they eat only these hedgehogs with nose like the pig has. The hedgehogs can have noses that look like pig's nose or like dog's nose. Dogs are considered unclean, so even anything that resembles them is unclean, too. Not sure whether I didn't mix up that about noses, since I read about it well before pandemic. But I surely read about it in this context, because it was also the first time ever I read about hedgehogs having different types of noses and paying attention to the noses when I see some hedgehog irl. So far I saw mostly the ones with dog's noses, but now looking at the English word for hedgehog (English isn't my native language, I watch Sorted, because I like cooking), I think the pig nosed one might be / have been prevalent in English speaking countries.

Try Kuih Loyang! It’s Malaysian/Singaporean, but uses a brass mold that you dip into hot oil, then the batter and back into the hot oil to cook. Makes a super thin, crispy cookie that I love eating during Chinese New Year.

Spice rubbed meat cooked at 600C+ over natural lump charcoal is fantastic. Used in both the USA & Japan for many cuts. Best done with steel skewers instead of grill grates. As you can not prevent sticking as oil evaporates above 400C. Add any herbs after grilling & a hand fan is required to maintain/control temperature.

[@elizabethconvey3242]

Loved the video ... I'm sure my daughters will love the idea of the fat washing! An idea for a future video ... Thermal Cooking/Hay Box cooking ... the MOST cost saving method of cooking - cheaper than using a slow cooker. CHALLENGE ... make a DIY thermal cooker from recycled items that most people will have. Compare the efficiency of the DIY version with a commercial cooker like MrD's Thermal cooker. (Disclosure: I have made a DIY thermal cooker by recycling an item found in many homes ... not saying what though, I wouldn't want to stymie your creativity and lateral thinking.) There is a very good reason to promote this method of cooking, given many people's concerns about the rising costs of electricity and gas.

[@victorprosa]

For this series I would like to recommend trying to fry Brazilian pastéis (“fritando pastel na feira” for your research on KZbin). Both seasoned ground beef and “pizza” (mozzarella cheese, oregano and chopped tomatoes) are popular fillings and super tasty. Frying them just like people do on the street markets requires some technique and a special cooking device that seems on point with this episode.

Maybe some other chemistry enthusiast can confirm me here, but I think it might be possible that the glycerides are actually swapping esters with the ethanol. It would be supported by entropy, at least a full swap. Therefore we have some fatty acid ethanolates and glycerine in an equilibrium. The reaction is quite slow I would assume. You could try and add some citric acid to the glass and see if this speeds up the process. Obviously the bigger factor remains the fat soluability of aroma carriers such as terpenes in the liquor.

I'm certain he was satisfied when he saw the other boys tasting the beef and veggies straight from the bag while the chefs were cooking.

@@feelosophy1921 Would you be if your friends invited you over for a meal and then told you they just fed you dog food. LOL

My dad claims to have an uncle who did that. He’d feed my dad and his siblings something then afterwards tell them it was like squirrel or turtle x]

We used to do flambedoue at Bentleys in Swallow Street, back in the day. We'd use the centre burner of the flat range to heat the flamboir. We'd get the rendered tallow from The Vine around the corner in Piccadilly Place.

I used to work at Ekstedt where the oyster flambadou was one of our staple dishes. The cast iron cone is heated up until red-hot (by being left in the centre of a fire pit), so that the beef tallow is literally pouring down in flames, giving the oysters a cooked surface whilst still being raw. We served it with a beurre blanc made with the oyster jus and a herb oil. I’ve since moved to Australia and during my years as a private chef, I made sure to get a flambadou myself to give my clients the experience to try this unusual, yet great little snack!

Speaking og gloval. Please consider tasting Colombian food Guys! HUGE fan from there 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴

You should try out the method which is a mixture of steaming and frying to make some Dampfnudeln. A dish from southern Germany and I would recommend the "Pfalz"-version (palatinate - the region that you guys have visited once) which is some yeastdough with a salty crust and no filling. You can eat it in different ways, but the most common one is with vanilla sauce or given to a potato soup. The salt crust is the best!

When I was living in Austria 50 years ago, I loved the apricot and plum dumplings and would like to see you cook them!

[@erzsebetkovacs2527]

If you're looking for other global cooking techniques, I'd nominate Hungarian veggie stews called főzelék, where the vegetables are thickened with a local variety of roux and/or milk or sour cream, depending upon the sort of vegetable used.
