Celebrate The Lunar New Year With These Recipes Ivy Cheang: Some corrections/tips for steamed fish: 1. fish = doesnt sound like prosperity exactly. It sounds like which means leftover/extra/abundance. Hence ppl usually call any fish dish (= having extra every year = prosperity) around new year. 2. Fish needs to be FRESH. Fresh ingredients are always great but if you have a fresh fish you might not even need the ginger (mostly to remove fishy smell. 3. If you have a transparent lid, traditional trick to see if the fish is cooked is the eyes. If its cooked the eye will turn white and pop out (as in video. They say you should steam it in one go or the fish will be ruined so this helps w not opening the lid a million times to poke it. 4. Traditionally the point of the dish is how soft the flesh is, so its barely cooked where the middle of the fish would almost stick to the bones. But depends on your preference. 5. Putting a pair of chopsticks under the fish (across it) helps it steam more evenly. I imagine its especially important if you like it barely cooked like me lol If you have a fat fish you can give it a cut along the back and/or stomach too. 6. If youre lazy there is soy sauce for steaming fish you can buy, but ofc its more customizable if you make your own. 7. Theres flesh in the fishs cheek which is like the softest part of the fish Ppl fight for that stuff: PSteamed fish is like my favourite dish so I just wanted to share what I know. Thank you for featuring some Chinese recipes. Happy lunar new year

Since so many people misunderstand the new year I will explain it. Lunar new year is a traditional Chinese New Year which is based on the moon. It meant a lot a lot to Chineses just like Christmas to christians. On the new year, no matter what everyone in your family will get together and celebrate it. But now, some other countries claims that it is their own new year which disgust a lot Chinese people. We are fine if they want to celebrate the festival too but they are disrespectful to Chinese cultures as they change the name of lunar new year to their new year. Thats why now people are saying Chinese New Year, to remind everyone this is Chinese culture. If Muslims take Christmas as their biggest holiday and claim that it is theirs. What will you think( I am not offensive to any cultures and religions. This is just an example)Btw I love this video Sorry for my bad English. If you have anything disagree with me, please leave a comment. Thank you

In Shanghai, our local custom is to add pork bone soup broth to our dumplings. The trick is to add gelatin to the broth and chill it to a gel, then a small amount to dot the filling just before closing the dumpling. After cooking it will melt to for a savory broth enriched by the filling. To eat, bite the corner first to suck out the soup.

Fun fact: calling the Chinese New Year lunar new year is not right. Chinese New Year is based on Chinese calendar, which is lunisolar one thats why its new year always falls in Aquarius. Whats the real lunar calendar then? The Arabic one.

its Zheng Yu(steam fish) not Jing Yu(thats gold fish in mandarin) yall might wanna consider correcting it or Im more than happy to come help with Chinese any time yall need it
reply

Btw, dumplings may be the must food on lunar new year eve ( night )- the Chinese from/in the northern regions in China / Shanghai, but definitely not for the southern Chinese

wish Tasty would do a thorough research on truly special authentic CNY foods that are only eaten during these 15 days, instead of just ordinary every day chinese dishes
