    Wow, this is the first time I've seen ginger in a sweet food setting (and that's not my sicktime tea lol). I hope I can make this someday, I don't have access to black sesame sadly but could this work with regular sesame seeds? The peanut butter sounds so appetizing 😋

    I never cease to be amazed with the sheer diversity in tang yuen recipes. In my not-Chinese mind, it's like an ice cream sundae, where you can go classic or swap out ice cream flavors and toppings accordingly (and that's not even taking the savory versions into account). I can't even pick a favorite filling, but the most decadent is definitely the pure peanut butter ones that I saw on an old episode of Yan Can Cook, no joke. This new year, I already made and froze my little stockpile of black sesame tang yuan, but I'm going to try this milky soup because that's a new variation for me!

    First of all, thank you so much for the recipe! I'm super excited to try making the black sesame filling, it's my favourite and sometimes the store bought versions aren't as nice. Secondly, I'd just like to say my family uses something called 冰糖 (rock candy???) and Idk, to me it just tastes nicer than just plain white sugar. I know some that use brown sugar too but I haven't tried that myself.

    Third and lastly, can you please show us a photo,, maybe on your IG, of the tang yuan filling after it's been cooked??

    Anyways, really glad for this video and I'm super excited to make it, thank you and your parents so so so much for the recipe as well as their stories and anecdotes.

    Love from Malaysia.

    Appreciate so much tips and skills on making and cooking this tang yuan.

    About to make our own tang yuan tomorrow. Lucky to see this video tonight. Too bad we already buy the ingredients for coconut tang yuan but I will make use of the tips given in this video to make mine.

    So great that you and your dad are working together to bring these wonderful recipes to your fans. Your dad obviously has a wealth of chef experience under his belt. I am 70 years old and just started cooking Chinese style dishes after my wife bought me a wok for my birthday. I love that your dad's recipes are quick and simple and well presented. Thanks!

    🤣 I just saw the crown princess in a Chinese period drama eat this. The sweet version in a liquid. Unfortunately in the Drama, her dumpling broth was laced with saffron, which was supposed to cause miscarriage!!(DRAMA). But they looked soo delicious and I have never heard of the sweet version, so thank you for this video! I will try to make my own!!

    When I see Daddy Lau cook it warms my heart. I grew up in the restaurant industry and I know all the hard work, long hours and physical demands of the Chinese kitchen. My mom's fingers are deformed from cooking with the heavy wok for 28 years. So when I see Papa Lau's hands I can also sense all the hard work he has put in to raise his family. He must be so proud of you and your wife for bringing his recipes to the world. I also love his vest! Total Chinese papa vibes haha. Keep up on the incredible work Lau family!

    Dear Daddy Lau & Junior,

    I have to say that the most lovely things for all the cooking clips that you shown us are using the imperial measuring system. I came from old generation and I feel much fed up with the metric system at all. US fought for their independence from UK, though, they still keep lots of the old tradition for which I am so thankful, to be honest.

    Thank you so much for your channel! My family is Vietnamese and based off your dad’s recipes, our cuisine and ingredients are very similar. I’ve been using your channel to recreate so many of the food that I ate growing up. I’m so thankful I get to share these dishes with my husband and siblings; as well as make them for my mom in return now.
