Seriously??? Better than vanilla ice cream and Carls caramel sauce? I have to try this. Book me in with you and Peter when I can finally come and see you. ❤❤❤
Hi John! Peter here! It would be such a pleasure to talk you and Amy’s mom together for a food tour in my hometown as well as the nearby Shunde, which y’all already got to know from your Shunde food adventure :D
@@peterzhou372 We would really love to do that one day with you Peter. You have such extensive food knowledge and have shown Amy such great dishes. Hopefully soon 🤞🙏
as a vanilla ice cream lover, I could tell you that there are many desserts beat vanilla ice cream in my experience. poor poor vanilla ice cream. XD You really neeeeeeeeeeeeed to come to China and try some of these.
Peter makes things so easy to understand. if he were a teacher, Im sure students would freaking love him!! Ur episodes make me wanna visit guangzhou - like it gets prioritised on my list for cities in China!
Hahahaha I have been a TA for undergrads in calculus and while my students love the way I explain and show them how to do those math problems, they didn’t like the fact that I was harsh on grading 🤣
Great video with Peter who is more knowledgeable in Chinese cuisine and can speak English well. He should promote as food tour guide to foreigners in future 👍🏻👍🏻 Keep him up with his great job!
Peter is such a great guide for Cantonese food! I am a Cantonese who has been living in Guangzhou since I was born, I can tell what Peter said is exactly right!
Hi Amy and Peter!🙋🏻♀️ I’m Asian residing in Toronto and I love watching all these food and desserts 🍮 Peter is amazing, he’s so knowledgeable with all types of authentic food in China and a fantastic foodie!😄 this is a fun vlog to watch!❤ Thanks for sharing your food adventure!!🎉
Peter is a Cantonese and used to live in Buffalo, NY. Apparently he has been to all the places around Toronto as well XD. He's also seriously considering moving to Toronto :p
That was the best explanation about cooling and warming properties in Asian food, something I have always tried to explained to my Western friends but can't put into words. Peter's explanation will be my go to script from here on in. Thanks for another great vid!!
Just need to let them know that in Chinese idea, it would be the best to have a balanced warm-cold ratio and certain kinda food is warming you up while certain kinda food is cooling you down. That’s it.
✨臭草 cho cau, is Rue, a bitter medicinal herb. I've used it by just chewing a couple leaves when my stomach is upset. It is "Ruta Graveolens" and a 1836 herb book I read when I was a kid said it is also called "Herb of Grace." .....Hello from Alexandria, Virginia ✨✨
Peter really makes this Cantonese food adventure unique and fun! He is very knowledgeable and informative about Cantonese food. Also, I love how proud he is when he introduces his own culture. Can’t wait for more featuring videos in the future 😄😄😄
Yay, Peter's back! That was fun, and hilarious that you slipped the 'corn' song in. It's so cool that you and Peter are equally obsessed with food - two people after my own heart. I took my friend for some Sichuan fish and pickles noodle soup in Melbourne CBD yesterday and she didn't like it. I need friends that appreciate Chinese food like I do!
@Linda Ralph I have the fortune of having visited Melbourne a few years ago and I'll have to say the choice of Chinese food over there is pretty decent. My advice for someone who is not used to Chinese food is probably to start trying from Cantonese cuisine with the sweet-sour flavor profile or barbeque pork/duck/goose and then advance further. Hope you can find someone who enjoys eating the same Chinese food with you in Melbourne and try all the amazing dishes :p
This is a very exciting episodes on Cantonese food. We had lots of Chinese food here in Singapore and I have been to China many times and my favourite is still the Cantonese food and cuisine.
Peter could well be the most popular foodie guide for any tourist wanting to explore Cantonese food in Guangchow. Maybe he could start a new biz putting together a "Foodie Tour" that may go from 1 day to 7 days or so. Great for weight loss enthusiasts!
I loved watching you and Peter having such a great time with those coconut deserts! What wonderful energy you both have. It brought a lightness to my day. I miss China so much. Ah, maybe again someday!
love, love, love Peter's energy as always, that coconut tofu looked absolutely delicious. looking forward to watch this duo together in more and more food adventures :)
@@peterzhou372 We love you Peter... and I hope that whenever Amy finds herself in your neck of the woods that she would continue including you in her food adventures... Food adventures in Guangzhou without you would feel like something is missing... I consider myself from Guangdong province even though I was born outside of China... My family is from Huadu (Fa-Yen) district in Guangzhou, and we are Hakka people - here where I am Hakka people make up a pretty big chunk of the Chinese diaspora. And at home growing up, we ate a lot of Hakka and Cantonese dishes. The Chinese restaurants specializes mostly in Cantonese cuisine. One of my favorite desserts is sweet red bean soup and I also love something delicious found in China (I tried it only once): a dessert made up of soft tofu, it is sweet from Toi Men (Hakka pronunciation).
@@josechong8207 would you mind telling me where you grew up? I am also familiar with Hakka cuisine as they also have a significant presence here in Guangzhou. Hakka diaspora are mainly in the Southeast Asia if I’m not mistaken but your name looks like it’s in Spanish..?
@@peterzhou372 Yes. I was born and raised in Panama. I grew up speaking Hakka at home and I learned spoken Cantonese watching the Hong Kong TVB dramas that were available in VHS or Betamax format. I am literally illiterate when it comes to reading and writing in Chinese except for a few words I learned as a kid and and can still recognize and of course the numbers, months, days, etc., and my Chinese name.
@@josechong8207 oh yeah panama. I do know that there’s a sizable Chinese diaspora over there and the Cantonese restaurants over there are quite authentic. I used to live in the US but never had the chance to visit.
Love your Cantonese! You are obviously very talented with languages. Can't wait to visit China with my young family when travelling becomes a bit easier
I know she is enjoying the tofu pudding, it is also my favorite dessert too, but I realized most Americans (I assume most westerners as well) don't like the taste of tofu or soy. Most of the soy milk brands sold in North America are flavored with vanilla or almond to mask the flavor of the soy.
While in Guangzhou, you should try a modern Cantonese fusion restaurant called 跃Yue. It is a fine dining restaurant that takes Cantonese food to another level. Maybe it's time to try some fine dining Chinese food.
After eating the changfen, she exclaimed "Peter!" like Lois Griffin from Family Guy. People who say Cantonese food is bland are probably used to eating at cheap restaurants that use the same marinade for every dish. Or they are people who just want something super spicy. The problem with cuisines that have a super strong sauce is that every food pretty much tastes like the sauce, and then as a result you have a small set of flavors to choose from. Whereas if the cuisine focuses on enhancing the natural flavor of the food, you have a really diverse and large set of flavors to choose from.
Totally agree with Peter. Cantonese food is not bland. It is not over loaded with a lot spicy or sour flavors so it will not cover the natural flavors of the ingredients and it has wok flavor.
@@peterzhou372 Lol you sneaky fellow! Nihao! You are a wonderful complement to our dear Blondie! Take loving care of her and take loving care of yourself too! :)
❤❤❤❤❤ love ur videos Amy, I think it is inspiring and awe-striking that people from the west would be so open to this. I still remember when you still had 150k subscribers. ❤❤❤. Close to 300k! 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤
And thank you Peter for your simple, understandable explanation of warming & cooling foods! I’d made some spice cookies over last winter..getting ready to start making them again. I make things for my neighbors, grocery and pharmacy delivery guys. I should add, up here in the northern Poconos, we also have very few REAL Asian restaurants. The one “Chinese” restaurant in town is owned by a Vietnamese family that has been here as long as my sis..the early 70’s. No offense to them, but their food tastes more like very commercial, prepared, generic Asian rather than Chinese or even Vietnamese. They also don’t speak either language as my sis and I found out. When my eldest daughter and I went there when she was here, while eating, she asked if we could just come home and make some “Khuong’s Soup” (my sister’s Vietnamese name) “and that Chinese sausage rice thing you make”. Yea, it was that disappointing, unfortunately. The place is almost always empty, even during tourist season. I think our city visitors are just spoiled by all the authentic Asian restaurants in NYC. In fact my daughter said I could probably get rich opening my own Asian/Indian restaurant here..a BIT too old for that..and moving soon, hopefully! Anyways, back to warm & cool..in the summer, I was making mango lassi’s, dairy free with coconut milk. I’ve tried to explain the warm & cool concepts because I also make different teas, depending on the weather and the person. For example, when my neighbor is having anxiety attacks, she’ll sometimes come over for my Goji/jujube + chamomile/skullcap/Anjelica root, ginger, etc that she insists works better than her medication.
Hi! The combination you're talking about is pretty much something you consume when you want to balance the warm & cool (or I should add another two categories, heat and cold) food in general that you've consumed earlier. Jujube and goji berries are warm, but not overly warm which can be translate to heat, and it works especially well on girls cuz these concept is also tied with yin and yang and apparently, girls are represented by yin and would be better to have some warming food to keep the yin & yang or warm & cool balance in their body at the balanced level. Mango, pineapple and litchi, these kinda tropical fruits are heating and should be consumed with a reasonable amount. Also note that you should combat the heating effect in your body by cooling food, not cold food, and combat the cold effect in your body by warming food, not heating food. It's just like when you want to put out a fire, do you wanna use water or ice, and when you're freezing and want to warm up, you won't just light yourself up or put your hands in boiling water 😂😂😂
Hi Amy. Great seeing you in Canton. Btw the mung bean or red bean porridge is often served after Chinese banquets. Is a popular Chinese after-dinner dessert. Cooling or warming, aggravating or causing blisters, pimples vs soothing down or numbing, hence warm water. There's a mid point too,. Balance.
This video was so much fun. I would love a somewhat in-depth explainer video about the “cooling” and “warming” concepts! 热性，凉性，上火，降火… Having lived in China I have an idea of what foods have those effects but would still be great to learn more and get a more extensive explanation.
Hi! I've tried to explain a bit of it in this video but it's already really hard to explain since I'm not in this professional TCM field. I tried my best to use Cantonese life skill to explain, but also due to the time constraint, I can't do like a 15 minutes presentation on this 😂😂😂
No, that's not what I said exactly. I've lived in the US for 7 yrs but wasn't really raised there 😂 But the "Kelly from the valley" accent, probably, maybe, like, couldn't be more true...?
If I'm not mistaken, another way of understanding the cool, and hot thinrg, is that cooling also has like cleansing properties, whereas hot foods don't. For example, cooling foods help cleanse the body of toxins, and acne, etc.. Whereas hot foods can contribute to more blockages, and stuff like that. Hot foods are described to have "Flame" properties, or "Huo qi". Cooler foods are "Qin huo". I think qin, here means "cleansing". I think it could also mean "lessens". So one category helps cleanse the body of the heat, or lessens the heat, or "fire/flame" property in the body; the other causes the accumulation of the "Huo qi". But I could be mistaken, bc I don't read chinese, and I also don't study TCM.
For example, hot foods can contribute to more acne, or nosebleeds, canker sores, etc.. Huo qi, and I may be wrong, may also be related to things, such as hormonal fluctuatioms, stress, irritability, etc.. So foods that (help) cleanse the flame properties within the body, by logic, should also help to regulate hormones, and stabilize things. I could be wrong, though. For example, some foods, or substances, are known as "adaptogenic". For example, ashwagandha, or BPC-157, are known to be "adaptogenic" substances, that help balance certain hormones, etc., in the body, such as balancing testosterone, if it's too low, etc..
Not actually. Even though these are not reused, the issue is opening up a coconut neatly like this probably cost more time and effort than just simple washing dishes.

Peter is thee best foodie guide everrr!
Thank you 😊
You can also say "hou mei dou", very tasty.
Loving the energy here
This coconut tofu pudding is also one of the popular treats in Hong Kong.
Even I have never tried it, it is tasty.
As a Taiwanese, Cantonese food , especially roast duck, onion oil chicken or barbeque pork are our favorites, period!
Amy, when there is no more restriction and quarantine in traveling between China and Hong Kong, you need to go to Hong Kong to sample food there.
Hi Amy. Great seeing you in Canton. Btw the mung bean or red bean porridge is often served after Chinese banquets. Is a popular Chinese after-dinner dessert.
Cooling or warming, aggravating or causing blisters, pimples vs soothing down or numbing, hence warm water. There's a mid point too,. Balance.
A 2nd video this week yay
Amy's facial expression at 4:18 😂😂
Ahhh ! I love listening Cantonese.
This video was so much fun. I would love a somewhat in-depth explainer video about the “cooling” and “warming” concepts! 热性，凉性，上火，降火… Having lived in China I have an idea of what foods have those effects but would still be great to learn more and get a more extensive explanation.
Hi! I've tried to explain a bit of it in this video but it's already really hard to explain since I'm not in this professional TCM field. I tried my best to use Cantonese life skill to explain, but also due to the time constraint, I can't do like a 15 minutes presentation on this 😂😂😂
Peter needs his own channel and I'm sure he's lived in the West for a good number of years.
he said he grew up in US & has valley girl kinda accent, he is fun to watch 😊
No, that's not what I said exactly. I've lived in the US for 7 yrs but wasn't really raised there 😂 But the "Kelly from the valley" accent, probably, maybe, like, couldn't be more true...?
@@peterzhou372 lol misunderstood... spending a couple of years living there is the fact tho (not childhood, my bad!).
@@yyysboy1 Not childhood. I was born and raised in Guangzhou and that’s why I know these kinda dishes well 😜
@@peterzhou372 that does make sense :)
I want to see jasmine !!!
Amazing extra video!
Thanks for sharing...great dishes have to try.
Peter is a GEM! 😀
Thank you 😊
Those coconut desserts looks amazing! Always wanted to try those ever since I saw them on the internet.
Blend coconut milk. Put pudding powder. Cook in pot, add rock sugar and pandan leaf. Put in fridge cooling
@@wendyshoowaiching4161Thank you, luckily I have all the ingredients, I'll give that a try right now!
@@wendyshoowaiching4161 well, except the Pandan leaf, but I'll check the local Asian market
good video mate
Peter seems fun.
If I'm not mistaken, another way of understanding the cool, and hot thinrg, is that cooling also has like cleansing properties, whereas hot foods don't.
For example, cooling foods help cleanse the body of toxins, and acne, etc..
Whereas hot foods can contribute to more blockages, and stuff like that.
Hot foods are described to have "Flame" properties, or "Huo qi".
Cooler foods are "Qin huo".
I think qin, here means "cleansing".
I think it could also mean "lessens".
So one category helps cleanse the body of the heat, or lessens the heat, or "fire/flame" property in the body; the other causes the accumulation of the "Huo qi".
But I could be mistaken, bc I don't read chinese, and I also don't study TCM.
For example, hot foods can contribute to more acne, or nosebleeds, canker sores, etc..
Huo qi, and I may be wrong, may also be related to things, such as hormonal fluctuatioms, stress, irritability, etc..
So foods that (help) cleanse the flame properties within the body, by logic, should also help to regulate hormones, and stabilize things.
I could be wrong, though.
For example, some foods, or substances, are known as "adaptogenic".
For example, ashwagandha, or BPC-157, are known to be "adaptogenic" substances, that help balance certain hormones, etc., in the body, such as balancing testosterone, if it's too low, etc..
Everything looks so yummy! 😋
In Yue cuisine, there are a lot of Chinese herbs in the dishes.
The coconut place reminds me of those bread bowls with soup inside. Serving the desserts in the shell must really help cut down on dishwashing, lol.
Not actually. Even though these are not reused, the issue is opening up a coconut neatly like this probably cost more time and effort than just simple washing dishes.
