"Under very careful supervision..." The most adorable supervisor ever! 🐶🥰

What type of cooker did you use for the wok? It looks good!

[EmorettaRobinson]

The way his adorable dogs carefully supervise and watch him while he's cooking is so sweet. Dogs are so loyal. Also this was my reminder to buy a wok. I have noticed in the past that some are labeled "seasoned" and some are not. I don't know if there is a specific brand that is best though. But I should buy a good one. Actually I think that would be a great idea for a video or video series. Meaning which are the best woks that you'd recommend? What brand has the best knives that you'd recommend? I've watched American Test Kitchen videos advising on not to buy chicken stock/broth because you're just buying the container, the seasoning and the added water. But instead to buy Better than Bouillon. I'd watch a series like that on woks, knives, pots and spices. In the household I grew up in we never used spices like star anise or cardamom. So I'm learning how to use them now. We did use paprika, salt, pepper, oregano, bay leaves, Lawrys, garlic powder and onion powder. So we did eat seasoned food though. My point is I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one learning how to use additional spices, pots, utensils and make dishes that I didn't grow up eating.

As a a former culinary friend now health care worker, your videos bring me great comfort. I miss working in a kitchen some days but the level of creativity and passion u create in your own kitchen remind me I can still be a home cook and that's enough

These tips are very helpful! Can I apply them for all types of eggplants?

[Rumade]

I really want your induction wok burner. It's so cool

Yumm thank you for eggplant recipes. Always buy. Never know what to do with it.

[BigLittleton]

This looks AMAZING. I bet it tastes amazing, too.

Yum! One of my favorite breakfast foods alongside sautéed seasoned chopped spinach and avocado toast. Delicious!

Love your cooking ❤
I am a little concerned by the amount of sodium used in bottled sauces and sprinkled liberally. Is there some way to track the sodium levels for those of us who are sensitive to the mineral. Thank you.

Does the salt make the eggplant sweat? I do love unmushy eggplant and this looks really yummy!😊

Your dogs' love tell me you're a good person

Is there a way to prepare purple eggplant so it retains that bright color? I always buy beautiful purple eggplant and it turns to a dull brown/black while cooking

[letgomyeggo]

Ha! We have the same watch just noticed that.

[tantalus_complex]

YES! Teach people how to cook eggplant properly!

Especially my fellow Westerners.

Bro at which restaurant you work at. Your food always looks official.

I've never had garlic chives and I'm very curious about them

How does that Zhenjiang vinegar compare to other rice vinegars, namely the Japanese variety used in making sushi rice?

[notoriousdabber]

the spicy eggplant I get at Thai places always have so much flavor and umami, what do they use?

[clairewright]

I soak my eggplant in water for at least 15 minutes, depending on the size of course. it soaks up the water and once you’re cooking, it can’t soak up the oil. Just be careful that you keep an eye on it as you don’t want it to go soggy.
