And you learn so much, too. Not just chinese words, or little cultural tidbits, but also incredibly valuable cooking tips that can be applied to whatever you're cooking!! A++ channel right here.
When I hear your dads voice it instantly takes me back to being 8 listening to my grandpa telling his stories over dinner time drinking this soup ❤️ Tastes of home. My mum made this every week and i would eat this with some fresh white rice and lots of the soup.
My dad hasnt been to his hometown in China for 50 years but with the dishes I follow from this channel he is reminded of his hometown and his childhood. This soup is one of them. Thank you. Please continue making these videos! Xie xie ni!
I so enjoy how your dad’s cooking brings the whole family together…a tradition I hope many Chinese Americans will sustain for generations to come. Your mom and dad are just such lovely people sharing their cooking knowledge and traditions with the world. The best food channel ever! Keep up the good work!
This is my childhood soup!! I remember my grandma made it for me very often. Now she is too old to cook now so I will try to cook this tomato soup for her!
Thank you SO MUCH Lau Family for teaching us and sharing your lovely family! I found your channel trying to learn how to cook my (Northern Chinese) husband’s favorite dishes. The relationship between Daddy Lau and Hong Doy makes me miss my late dear grandpa so much !
I made this except I added 1 1/2 tbsp of Shaoxing wine and 1/3rd tsp of white pepper during the sauteeing, I subbed the portobellos for a few dried shiitakes and their soaking water, and added some chopped enoki mushrooms and spinach at the end and LEMME TELL YA, it was the best thing I've eaten lately. The Chinese soup game is absolute bananas. This reminded me exactly of the soup I always used to get at this little gem of a vegetarian Chinese place years ago; super nostalgic.
I made this last night and my wife and I both loved it. It's velvety and a bit sweet, with strong tomato flavor. I've also made the ginger rice with chicken and the pan-fried salmon, and all three recipes were huge hits in our house. I will definitely make all three again! Thanks for sharing these wonderful recipes and your family's warmth and fun.
Made this for dinner last night. Delicious! Thank you for your wonderful recipes. One thing I did differently was to sauté the ginger, etc. in the soup pot before adding the soup. No need to use two pots.
super love this chaneellll !! cooked my first chinese soup (this recipe), truly such a joy to see my husband & son ate it... eventhough im a beginner cook lol. often failed in cooking but bcoz of the super detailed instruction -- i was able to do it successfully in one go !! hyped to learn the other recipes. thank u thank uuu Daddy Lau & Randy !!
We love cooking along with Lau! This soup is so flavorful! Thank you so much for teaching us how to make your wonderful recipes. I especially love the time around the table, hearing of the stories and information you all share. I have made so many of your recipes. Each one is superb! I have to leave out animal products and salt and oil due to health issues, but still very delicious! Thank you so very much!
Thank you very much to your family and you for sharing this dish. I’m very impressed by your dad’s cooking and I enjoyed making and eating this dish ☺️
Thank you. Such an easy and delicious recipe to follow. Also very healthy. I’m from India. And I enjoy your fathers cooking. He’s a super chef. Thank you
Was the best soup I ever made tonight for my family dinner..thanks so much Dad Lau...Have great happy new year and always good health with whole family
I've been looking for easy to cook recipes to save time. My parents are busy because of work so I'm the one who cooks for dinner after my classes. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I will try this tomorrow.
Love your channel. I would love to see your dad go shopping to pick the best veggies. I have no idea how to choose the freshest veggies and usually find out that i made a bad choice once I get home. Thanks.
I am going to make it this for lunch since I have all the ingredients. I have watching your cooking show. Simple and easy to follow. Thank you to the Lau’s.
I’ve made this twice now and my parents love it! I also shared the recipe with my sister and she made it immediately! Thank you for this recipe and the explanations are so helpful-especially the part about the tip for the egg drop consistency!
Just tried this recipe and while cooking with ketchup terrifies me, I was surprised by how savory and delicious this was! I added a little garlic (bc I love it in everything) but I think it would have been great even without it. Thank you for continuing to share your family and content!
Daddy Lau is very very good in cooking canton food. I followed the 干炒牛河，wow it turned out to be amazing, I couldn't believe I made it. The videos are in great details, wonderful efforts. I believe you guys will do so well. Please keep up the high standards and looking forward to more videos from Daddy Lau.
I love tomatoe tofu soup! It's one of my favorites too & I love it as a noodle soup ❤️ I was so happy when I saw this video. Can't wait to make it & try. Thank you for the video Lau fam! Also, would also love to see videos on how to make Chinese soups 😋
my dad (who also worked BOH in a chinese restaurant) always used to say chinese tomato dishes were better homemade than in restaurants because restaurants never have time to peel the tomato’s. peeling is just one of those caring home touches
Your Dad remind me of Mom's village and her cooking is very much same style like HOME. Excellent nutritional soup and fast to cook. Very good channel! Good job!👍👏
I learned Chinese for five years and even lived in China for a year. It is so enjoyable to hear your dad talk! And the recipes are prolifically well done. Especially this recipe, I enjoyed a lot. Thank you very much
Hey yo! Maybe next up Daddy Lau can make classic Cantonese desserts like 豆腐花 or 双皮奶！😋 Thanks for being the source of inspiration whenever I don't know what to make for dinner, its such an enjoyment to watch Daddy Lau in action 🥰
Love your channel and family, just found it, thanks for sharing this with me, us, except for the recipes, I think the explanation where it comes from is very important and watch all the way to the end. Much respect and love from the other side of the world, the Netherlands. Kind regards, Jos
Absolute delight watching this step by step guide to whipping out this delicious soup!💯 What is the replacement option for Chicken Broth for those who are vegetarians?
I wanted to make this tomato soup but didn’t have any mushrooms or tofu so I kind of combined it with your bok choy soup, without the pork. I also added some Chinese cabbage that I had on hand, put in a splash of soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and white pepper. It’s a good thing it turned out good because I’ve got a huge pot of it and I live alone.
I made the soup today following your dad’s family. It’s awesomely tasteful. Ingredients are easy to get in USA, I got tofu delivered by weee. I added some chilli Sesame oil and white pepper, feel like a hot and sour soup. I am a foodie and enjoy cooking, but this recipe is simple and delightfully warm up a chilly day. Thanks for sharing.
Today my wife and I prepared Dad's HEAVENLY Tomato Tofu Soup and it was delicious. The recipe says it serves five; however, the two of us pretty much finished it off in one setting. We did make a couple of changes; first, we did not add any tomato ketchup and second, since we did not have any fresh mushrooms on hand, we used dried mushrooms. We will probably continue with this modification. I did put a wee bit of fish sauce into my bowl (my wife does not like fish sauce) and the addition was very good, at least to me. I have saved this recipe onto my personal Big Oven account and will be making it again. I have one PS; I will probable peel the three tomatoes next time.
I've made this yet again but added a bit of sautéed onion, mushrooms, left-over cooked chicken and fine pasta because I wanted an easy (umm, lazy) all-in-one-pot meal - and it was SO good. Daddy Lau's original version is really delicious and so quick, healthy and frankly, absolutely perfect as it is, but, in the same vein of 'give a man a fish vs teach a man how to fish' this recipe and variations of it is one that I will be making for a long long time! Please pass on my heartfelt thanks to Daddy Lau!
I've grown up with 咸菜番茄豆腐汤 that is made with preserved mustard greens (aka salted vegetables), tomatoes, and tofu. The base is usually made with pork meat or bones. It's one of my fav soups, second to (savoury) apple soup :)
Will the soup become too tangy from both the tomatoes and salted vegetables? I usually eat the pork ribs soup with salted vegetables, but never try to add tomatoes...
I use to work in fine dining and we have to bring our own cutlery. While most chefs around me have 5 knives plus I have just one. The one your dad uses. It does everything and love it.😋 keep it sharp!

What’d you think of Daddy Lau’s recipe?
One question, why do Cantonese food are mostly starchy? Unlike its neighbour like Hainanese or Fujian food? Is it because of British influence?
Looks delicious! My mom would add dried seaweed in for added umami
Hi! May I ask, what type of fresh mushroom did your dad use? 🥰
hello can you substitute the chicken broth for chicken stock?
Seriously one of the best cooking channels I’ve ever come across. Watching your videos make me feel like I’m a part of your family.
And you learn so much, too. Not just chinese words, or little cultural tidbits, but also incredibly valuable cooking tips that can be applied to whatever you're cooking!! A++ channel right here.
I feel just the same. Best from Brazil.
Totally agree
Same here.
I agreed. Reminds of my home cooking .
When I hear your dads voice it instantly takes me back to being 8 listening to my grandpa telling his stories over dinner time drinking this soup ❤️ Tastes of home. My mum made this every week and i would eat this with some fresh white rice and lots of the soup.
The best part of the video is to see a family of 3 generations so easily chat away and sharing nice food and tips. The rest of the video is great too.
I just enjoy watching your family interact with one another. There's so much affection, kindness and respect!
My dad hasnt been to his hometown in China for 50 years but with the dishes I follow from this channel he is reminded of his hometown and his childhood. This soup is one of them. Thank you. Please continue making these videos! Xie xie ni!
Thanks very much for sharing your recipe. Fresh tomatoes are the best!
好多謝您嘅支持！多謝晒！

Thanks for all the familiar Cantonese dishes, love the Cantonese dialect.

His recipe has a lot of sugar actually. When I make it I don’t add much sugar or ketchup
@@sevenw7150 I used only half a teaspoon for sugar. I like savory more. 😬
Made this for dinner last night. Delicious! Thank you for your wonderful recipes. One thing I did differently was to sauté the ginger, etc. in the soup pot before adding the soup. No need to use two pots.
totally agree with you
Loved your dad’s teaching, more Veggie dishes please. 好正！
