Every time I watch a "Made With Lau" video, I think about how awesome it is that you are capturing your father's specialized knowledge and sharing it with posterity, and that you are working so closely with your family to take your father's business (where he worked so hard for his family) into a new business model. Also, despite my not understanding any Chinese dialects, your father's skill as a teacher is so natural. You all rock!!
p.s. Also everything is delicious!
Thank you so much for the kind words! It really means a lot to us and I couldn’t agree more. We’re so grateful that my dad is willing to share his knowledge with the world!
I live in Ohio and on a deadly cold day this soup has saved me
Daddy Lau never disappoints!
God bless him
I have been watching for a while and I realized this time I never thanked you for the time and skill you took and have to make this video. Thank you so much for your time ( not only the time to make and edit the video but also the time to perfect the cooking techniques you graciously share with us). Thank you for so generously using your skills to help other cooks. Be well.
Yes, thank you. We sure do appreciate it.❤
This has to be one of my most favourite and comforting soups. Your videos are not only wonderful in teaching us how to cook but your dad's enthusiasm is an absolute joy to watch. It's a cold day down here in Western Australia and this recipe is perfect. Thank you for bringing a smile, and happy tummies, today
This is an advanced version. I grew up eating a very simple version of egg drop soup. My best guess: Chicken broth, eggs (long strands - do not stir after adding eggs) w a bit of ginger, dash of soy sauce and green onion. Restaurants would give you free egg drop soup w combo meal and if you wanted Won ton, well that was always extra. Developed a taste for Egg Drop soup during my college days. Every Chinese buffet had a vat of Egg Drop soup. Very simple, cheap & easy.
I had a fantasy that I would learn how to cook my favourite Chinese dishes by a nice wise man with lots of restaurant experience! Fantasy come true! I love it! Thanks Lau and family!
I'd love to learn how to make hot and sour soup!
Hii
Egg drop soup is one of my favorite. It's such a comforting soup. Simple but delicious and filling. Thank you so much for posting this recipe.
❤
i only started making chinese food recently from
memory. due to covid and missing seeing my parents as much as before pandemic! this is such a treasure ! thank you!
I probably haven't been watching you channel as some folks, but your original egg drop video is what introduced me to your channel in the first place, so it's cool to see an updated version!
When my family and I got sick with COVID some time ago, your old egg flower soup recipe was the one i followed. I basically made enough for an entire day. 😅 Since then, I've made it more times than I could count with different variations (depending on ingredients we have/leftovers), and it's always good. I'll try this recipe next time! (Excited because i absolutely love tofu.) 😊😊
Chef Lau is a good teacher, along with his son's educational information...I cooked Siumai following his recipe, minus the Shiitake mushroom (I don't have it that time) but the marinade works wonders, you would thought it was cooked by a Chinese Chef. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in cooking, even my Dad who was a retired Chef liked it!
As a lifelong cook it's nice to have someone casually 'demystifying' these cooking techniques.And while I don't understand Cantonese much, it's great there are comprehensive subtitles.
Thank you... M'goi Sai!
聽劉伯伯用粵語教煮住家餸特別有親切感！
好多謝您嘅支持！老劉祝福您同家人健康快樂！
This Egg-drop soup/ chicken-shred soup goes very well with 🍅 tomatoes 🍅 😋😋😋😋👍👍👍👍
I make your original Egg Flower Soup recipe at least once a week. It’s literally perfection! Your recommendation for the Lee Kum Kee Chicken Bouillon Powder was spot-on for making it taste better than the best local takeout places.
Bouillon is already salty though, plus some MSG, so it's stronger than canned broth
I would love to see you guys make crab meat sweetcorn soup next!!
I just can't get enough of the wholesomeness
My favourite channel! I think it's so precious to have all these videos for your own memories. It's hard work, but worth it. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Really cool to see your family come together to create amazing content! So excited to try the recipe a try❤️
Your Channel is so genuine! Bloody love it
thank you for sharing your dad with us!
The whole bowl looks so poetic! ❤
原來勾芡跟打蛋花還可以這樣運用
感謝劉爸無私分享
不要客氣，非常感謝您的支持！老劉祝福您和家人健康快樂！
Yum. Excellent when feeling a little under the weather.

Thank you for the explanation of potatoes starch and corn starch for the soup clarity. I've been trying to figure that out for years now! Thank you!!!

I LOVE egg drop soup! I'll be making this tomorrow for dinner 😄 Thank you Daddy Lau! 🥚
Uncle lau is the man… as a hungry chef this dish will be amazing to learn thank you for the videos!! They are awesome !!
Well, that was nostalgic ! I remember very well having stumbled randomly on your first egg drop soup video (I believe that's the one that made me discover your channel), and it certainly helped me warm my stomach (and my mental state) during the darkest hours of the pandemic !
Thank you and your dad for all these fantastic videos over the years !
This was the soup my dad would make when I was sick
This looks so delicious 😋❤ I'm going to serve it on Sunday. I'm so glad I found your channel, it's very inspiring and you show and explain things so well. Thank you 🌺
Amazing came out perfect. 😁👍

And the awesome chef is your very own daddy!😋
Thank you for the Share...
I can't wait to try this! 🤤
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you for the alternatives for people with allergies. I definitely be making this in the upcoming week!
Maybe this is the receipe which I ve been looking for almost 40 years. When I was a boy, I used to taste this soup, since that I was thought to find the name.
ONE OF THE GREATEST TH-cam CHANNELS I HAVE WATCHED ABOUT COOKING!!!!!I ADMIRE YOU CHEF LAU!!!
Thank you Family!!!😘
I wish my local Chinese restaurants would take as much pride in their food as your dad does. Everything he makes, he makes with passion and care.
I love your channel and style. Your father is a treasure and an amazing man. Respect.
I’ve always wondered how Egg Drop Soup was made! My favorite soup on a cold day. 🍜
Made this one tonight, it was excellent and better than the takeout we got a few days ago. Good job everyone and thank you for what you do.
Mouth-watering. I live in Italy so I will have a hard time finding the potato starch, but I think I can make this dish!
The hero we never knew we needed. ❤
fantastic!
This soup is really good big fan
Thank you Made With lau...love ya
God bless your family. Thanks for sharing the recipes Mr. Lau😊
Your dad is so awesome! Great content as always keep up the good work! Love from Taiwan 🇹🇼
First time viewer, I enjoyed the video, thank you for the receipt. I'll be watching everything else you have uploaded. Again thank you...
Love this man...total OG pro. All his recipes/techniques are tops.
Tqvm, Uncle Lau for tips and know-how for a great bowl of egg drop soup
Thank you & your dad for sharing. Are all the food videos cantonese style cooking? Btw, could you do a video on how to choose a suitable cleaver - ss handles or wooden handles, etc. Have a great day and God Bless. 😁😎
Beautiful family...
Dad, if cooking never disappoints, it's always delicious
Thank you sooo much for everything🎉🎉
This is the first time i used potato starch, it has a less imposing taste and thickens well. Thank you
omg the translation is so gold! i get the starches confused ! you have it written! YES!!!
What a legend! thank you for sharing your fathers expertise, I'm sure he is proud!
I love egg drop soup too much that i need to learn proper way to cook it! 🥰
Finally learned how to make restaurant standard egg flower soup.
终于学会了饭店蛋花汤，原来需要加水打鸡蛋。
非常感謝您的支持！老劉㊗️您和家人健康快樂！
Last night I followed your old egg flower soup recipe and it turned out great. I substituted sweet rice flour for the cornstarch and added shrimp to one of the bowls (since I was using leftovers). After making the soup I remembered that a lot of recipes use tofu so I figured I'd try that next. I feel very vindicated to hear you mention these ingredients in your new video! Next time I'll follow this recipe.
Ahh thanks for sharing that and trying our recipe! Adding sweet rice flour sounds delicious.
I was surprised at how good it turned out! The soup was near-restaurant quality for my first attempt, and the broth was easily the best part. The flour added a welcomed bit of sweetness.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! I love Chinese food and have enjoyed learning how to properly prepare it. Unfortunately I've developed a soy allergy but I appreciate the different options you give, I can usually work around it. But I do miss tofu!
For many years I used the same technique for Italian Stracciatella soup, works very well.
Lau is a Canton cultural hero!
Can’t wait to make it
Well... I know what I'll be making this weekend!!!
Comfort food ♥
My grandma also love to make a dish similar to this just with stir fry noodle😊
One day when I have the energy I’ll make this my favourite stuff! ❤️🇨🇦🌎
Thanks for the update on how to make it home made
Of course!
Your dads awesome 👍🏻
I have used Arrowroot as well, for the starch, works great.
I just love how the tofu dance around in boiling soup..
Your Dad is the GOAT! hopefully that translates well. Lol
