Thanks so much for sharing this amazing vegetarian hotpot recipe. Being a vegetarian for 5 years, I miss hotpot so much. I always don't know how to get the soup base right. Will definitely try it out.
PRO TIP I like to freeze a package of firm tofu the night before and then defrost it before cutting it up for hotpot as usual. It gains a nice spongy texture and soaks up WAY more broth Also I often use my 2 liter rice cooker for hotpot since I live in a tiny apartment. It's serviceable but because of the small volume and verrry limited heating settings temperature management is a HUGE issue, especially when I add ingredients
Thanks to your dad for another for us vegetarians. It looks like a great recipe. I will probably try also adding water chestnuts etc. to give the style that I see in the HP restaurants. Big fan of the pickle style bases!
Haven’t commented in a while but I still love watching your Father cook, his “IDGAF” this is how it is” style is amazing. Do you have a cutlery or cookware sponsor? I’d love a video on the tools of the trade he chooses and why
The hot pot is a great way to socialize. You don't need any fancy equipment and you don't need to cook things ahead of time, especially not vegetables. It works best for a small group around a small table; after a few minutes I could understand Cantonese!
I've just found your presentations, they are so informative and simple to follow. I love how you include your amazing family and demonstrate the love and respect we should all show. Thank you from a new follower in England.
When I make Hot Pot I use my electric Fondue set for it. I don't make two soups, just one, so it's no problem to only have one pot and since I can take out the skewerholder it has for Fondue, it's wide enough.
can't tell you how much i appreciate your family thinking of cooking plantbased/vegetarian from time to time!!!!!! and also showcasing how people don't need to subscribe to any label exactly in order to eat food w/o meat or eggs and still have a delicious time
Erm it's pretty common to eat vegetarian in Asian countries. I'm from Malaysia and the vegetarian / vegan / plant based food we have in Malaysia that I know is Chinese vegetarian and Indian vegetarian. I think I know that Adventist Hospital Penang do serve vegetarian as well and I heard about their delicious bakery food. Vegetarian food in Malaysia basically are pretty easy to find, especially Chinese or Indian descendant populated regions especially in the states like Penang and Kuala Lumpur. Not sure about other states since I'm not that familiar LOL
By the way, I would recommend you to follow WoonHeng, ChefDave VeganJourney, Raw Chef Yin. They are TH-cam channels hosted by Malaysians with their own veganized dishes especially food that are pretty common be found in Malaysia. Enjoy ;)
Hotpot is always the best and easiest way to prepare dinner for a group of family and friends. Just have to prepare a simple soup base and prep the ingredients. Heck you can even ask guests to byo some ingredients. There's something for everyone and uncooked leftovers can be kept for next day's meals.
Thank you for offering some of the names in 普通话. I learned some in college, and now I'm trying to cook more, but I'm only finding recipes in Cantonese. I love Cantonese cooking, but it always feels like a missed chance to also be practicing my language skills.
Randy, you are very lucky your dad cook at home ,my dad is a Chinese chef but rarely cook at home maybe he is tired cooking at work want nothing to do at home😢
Yeah I am vegan from Brazil , Already hit the like buttom ! I want to learn chinese language , I know japanese english and french , I Really like chinese language and chiense stuff and culture ... and yeah that is the WAY ! my town here we have native chinese guys who opened a vegan restaurant , chinese people good vibes people
I've been wondering what kind of dipping sauces daddy Lau likes to make for dumplings and such. The simple sugar soy vinegar is fine, but what other ones did he have at his restaurant?
I love and make a lot of your recipes, I made this one this weekend and wow!!! Thank you I also emailed you a message because I was late for ordering the new year menu after the dead line. Is this still available please let me know thank you.
Now that we’ve done a vegetation recipe, can we try a Kosher dish? Take a traditional meat dish and due a kosher version? I bet there’s a million Jews out there who would love to see a world class chef like your dad cook a kosher version of our people’s favorite food 😂.
If the ingredients are kosher, its kosher. For most dishes without pork, there is no real problem unless you are very strict with the rules and also keep it for vegetables.
@@liortepper3619. @. inaccurate description of kashrut, but I think you’re referring to the fact that this particular recipe appears to be פאַרעוו. I edited my comment to avoid this question being asked again. Be well.
Well i actually worked in a kosher Chinese restaurant where the chefs would make anything they wanted for their own meals, including a special Chinese new year staff meal that they served after the restaurant closed. So one thing they would make was salt and pepper ribs made with veal ribs. Really good!
There’s a lot of ingredients I wouldn’t normally even think about or look at. But idk why… just watching the process makes me wanna eat everything lol. The end is gonna kill my stomach cuz I know I can’t make all this
I made hot pot for my partner and I last night for our thanksgiving feast. I cheated and use a soup base & can confirm the instant pot on our coffee table works swell. I use the sauté function and turn it off as needed to adjust cooking. I’ll be trying your homemade soup base next time we enjoy hot pot. :) Thanks for the tips! Would the addition of 紅棗 and goji berries or other medicinal/herbs to the soup base be acceptable? What do you recommend?
You can add anything you want. Ordinarily I think that medicinal ingredients are not added, unless there is a sick person. A person who needs medicine does not have to share it with other people, and the hot pot is a social occasion.
It’s actually very typical to use ingredients that are considered medicinal in Chinese soups. The two I named in my original comment are the ones I see most commonly in hot pot. Medicinal ingredients/herbs are used on a regularly basis to maintain health and not only used when someone is ill. I wasn’t recommending you turn hotpot into a healing meal for the sick 😂
I think it will taste good if they are matching to create compatible flavour together. Red dates and Goji berries has their own very distinctive aroma and some people really hate the smell and the taste; 100% any red dates or Goji berries will adulterate the whole pot and you won't able to 'clean up' the smell and the taste unless you finish up the whole pot, wash thoroughly the empty pot and to make a brand new one from the beginning, again. And please please please, to put Goji berries when you are ready to eat all of them. Overcooked Goji berries taste really disgusting LMAO
Just throw some meat up in that pot to make it even more delicious! Up here in the cold north I like to use game like reindeer or moose, and even seafood like fresh whale or king crab claws.
Because you do not have enough cooking time to soften the shitake mushrooms if you throw dry shitake mushrooms directly into boiled broth. Dried shitake mushrooms require soaking. It is different with western cooking style.
@@catchnkill I wonder in Malaysia there are fresh Shiitake mushroom to buy LOL My whole life I only see dried Shiitake mushroom, maybe it's because I seldom do the groceries LOL
@@JoanKSX I did a search and found many online stores selling frozen fresh shiitake mushroom in Malaysia. I bet that you can find it in bigger supermarket.
The timing for this video could noy be more perfect. I usually buy the hot pot flavor packets but im making it for friends with gluten alergy. Its too risky to buy any premade packets so i need to make my own broth. I thank you for this!
Bet that stuff would put you on the toilet if you weren’t used to it that will detox you . Yes that looks good 👍 After eating normal meat your body would have to adjust .
I eat vegetarian foods. I eat vegetarian meats. I don’t eat garlic. I don’t eat onion. I don’t eat scallion. I don’t eat leek. I don’t eat meats. I eat vegetarian seafoods. I don’t eat seafoods.

I'm all for eating meat, but the last 2 hotpots I've made have been vegetarian. Veggies just lend themselves so well to this style of cooking.
You should make a cook book it would be so cool
Thanks for promoting Cantonese cuisine and culture! You do a great job 🎉
Love all your cooking, very yummy.

A plant based meal that is not afraid to be a plant and pretend to be meat. A 10/10.

Why do you soak the mushrooms?

And dried Shiitake mushroom has strong aroma, not sure about fresh Shiitake mushroom though
@@JoanKSX Sure. Fresh Shiitake mushroom has a lot less aroma. The drying process causes the aroma to increase.

可以幫忙跟劉師傅請教觀音齋的火鍋菜譜和烹飪示範影片嗎？
那麼到時候過年的時候尤其是正月初一十五就可以吃好吃的素火鍋了欸～
觀音齋吃素的：
洋蔥 onion、小蔥頭 shallot、蒜頭 garlic、韭菜 chive、青蔥 spring onion、韭蔥 leek 等那些五辛葷菜都不吃的。
多謝咯 ;)
P.S. 不好意思，可能在用不正確的繁體字
（雖然我的確是看得懂繁體字，
但是本人是學簡體字的馬來西亞人，只是用了網上的簡轉繁體字轉換器，
如有錯誤請多多包涵）
唔好客氣，你的繁體字寫得好好，其實您寫簡體字我都識睇。關於觀音齋火鍋用料，除了你所說的五辛食材外，可以任意選擇你喜歡的食材就可以啦。火鍋係最易做的烹調方式，醬汁方面參照一下我的方法試試看。好多謝您嘅支持！老劉祝福您闔家安康快樂幸福！
@@MadeWithLau 多谢 =D
没办法，看到字幕全都是繁体字的，连大部分的留言也是，
就怕刘师傅和一家看不明白吧。
也先预祝刘师傅一家人冬至平安喜乐哟～
Yass more vegetarian stuff!
How do you know if something is ready to eat? Take it out of the pot and eat it, if it's not ready, throw it back in!
👀 do you guys have 生根 over there? The best vegetarian balls for hotpot 😂
Actually it is deep fry wheat flour gluten into a ball. I do not like it because it releases a lot of oil into the broth.

Bet that stuff would put you on the toilet if you weren’t used to it that will detox you . Yes that looks good 👍 After eating normal meat your body would have to adjust .
better than 紅卜卜戈啲麻辣火鍋
