This mah fuka cold as ice… In addition to that skin cracking burn, the rest was excellent too. Made with Lau is global treasure. I appreciate the collaboration, and your support of such a fantastic family. Fried Rice for life.

    Uncle Lau actually was a Chef in a Hong Kong style Restaurant in USA, before his family went to USA, he was a Chef in a local chinese restaurant in Hong Kong.
    and the fresh rice has better rice flavour than the leftover rice and restaurant can't have lots of left over rice for fried rice, so they always use cooled fresh rice.
    And typical Hong Kong Chinese restaurants and "Cha chaan teng" always use freshly cooked rice for your fried rice dish.

      Yeah but Uncle Roger's point is that it's infinitely easier to f--k up for the home cook watching a "how to cook fried rice" TH-cam video, and he's not wrong.
      You are though. Restaurants don't have time to make fresh rice then cool it. They *might* do that near the end of the night if they made too little the night before. But restaurants don't have time to cook rice prior to. That's the easiest night before prep.

What I did instead was use 1 of our rice cooker (we have 3 big rice cooker) to cook rice specifically for fried rice and use less water on it just like what the video said, when it runs out of rice and we had to use the regular rice though, the result is a very sad looking fried rice with poorly mixed salt and sore shoulders from tossing and mixing the rice lol

      Nah, no matter how much you let out the steam, fried rice using cooked rice would still be mushy and wouldn’t have that perfect al dente texture, compared to day-old rice. Day old rice’s texture is superior and it’s easier to do. It just needs patience. Fresh rice is for those in the rush / too lazy.
      Also, restaurants CAN chill it fast enough. When they ran out of rice and had to make a serving of fried rice, restaurants obviously wouldn’t be using conventional fridges overnight. They’re using blast chiller.

    I think many people already know that the name for fried rice in Indonesia is "Nasi Goreng", but many people (including Indonesians) don't know that the word "Nasi Goreng" can be translated again into Sundanese (one of Indonesia's regional languages).
    If translated from Indonesian "Nasi" is "Rice" and "Goreng" is "Fried", but if translated from Sundanese "Nasi" still means "Rice" but "Goreng" means "Bad" or "Rice that has (nearly) gone bad".
    And that meaning to me makes a lot of sense, because Indonesia is not a rich country, and rice is the main meal from morning to night, Indonesians don't make fried rice because they want it, we make fried rice because we have leftover rice from the day before and are forced to eat it because we don't want to waste food.
    So using yesterday's rice is not a myth but a cultural thing, if it makes the rice taste better, it's just a bonus.

      i disagree a bit, i am sundanese while "goréng" indeed means "bad", "goreng" in Indonesian simply means "fried" and I also find the word getting traced to sundanese very plausible since indonesian is based on simplified malay (in which "goreng" also means "fried")

    用新鮮的飯做炒飯還挺正常的,主要是米香味足夠,水分足夠炒完後比較順口,飯店很少會特地為了炒飯而準備大量隔夜飯,還有衛生安全問題
    許多人其實也不喜歡太過乾燥的炒飯,雖然粒粒分明看起來很美觀,但吃起來口感乾澀,甚至會有卡喉嚨的感覺

    • @TheOriginalFaxon
      @TheOriginalFaxon 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Sounds like it helped the soil health, since even if the cactus wasn't able to benefit from the starches, the soil's bacteria will definitely benefit, and they help provide nutrients to your plants. Plus there will be free nutrients in the water as well in addition to the starch that are ready to go before the soil bacteria get to doing their thing.

    Tip also for fresh rice usage: when water gets close to the bubbling hole phase, mix in a half cup of seasame and canola oil mixture. As it boils to finish it'll keep the rice less likely from clumping as it cools and gives the rice a light sesame flavor. In my restaurant my night shift cook would barely leave me rice for my afternoon openings so too many times i had to rely on fresh rice.

    Iv had fresh-fried rice. It was a Vietnamese restraunt who makes really good food. (Pho especially). And their fried rice is fresh rice, and yes you can taste the difference, along with more grains being broken. Clumps arent really as bad, as long as you know what your are doing. I still prefer day old- fried rice.. it’s texture and taste is different, and it’s easier to work with.

    Using less water for the rice helps a lot to prevent the rice from clumping when we fried it. Or, if you are Indonesian, you can use a type of rice called "beras pera" since it has a characteristic to not clumping together even if it was freshly cooked. The majority of Indonesia's street vendor who sells fried rice use this type of rice. You can also find this type of rice on a Padang's Restaurant in Indonesia (preferably not the fancy restaurant but the one they open in front of their house).

  • @amyoung6455

    I've always used fresh hot rice to make fried rice. This method allows for even temperature when the hot rice hits the hot wok; if you use cold rice, you have to bring that rice to temperature which could compromise the fried rice if you're not careful (meaning it has an easier chance to stick to the wok).
