he really nails the chinese from southeast asia accent - in real life he sounds nothing like that as he's playing the part of a 1st gen immigrant
and i really like how his response to people who claim it is racist is to just tell them they are idiots because this is what the people he's impersonating sound like and they'd never call a put on french accent racist etc etc so it's more their own projection than anything else
he's a lot to swallow in large doses (tried watching his standup but couldn't do it) but brief clips where he breaks down cooking videos are always fun
Found a great recipe on IG for Vietnamese chimichurri. Account is @tommyphameats. Here’s a screen shot of the recipe. I sub’d basil for shiso, and used Serrano instead of Birds Eye.
found a cool tip so when you find a good recipe online, you can skip past the writers life story, etc and get right to the recipe, put "Cooked.wiki/" in front of the http and it will convert to a recipe only and you can even change quantities.
This is such a good tip. The layout is the best I’ve seen for cooking. Thanks for the heads up Yim.

Unsurprisingly, making your own Korean-style BBQ sauce (gojuchang, ginger, garlic, perilla oil, mirin, brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, neutral oil) is worth the time if you are cooking ribs.
Speaking of gojuchang, did a simple version of Andy Cooks mac & cheese with gojuchang and mustard and it was great. I find a lot of homemade M&C's lack flavour, and this one was actually just about perfect.
Kenji spring salad is great. I used Greek yogurt as I couldn’t find labne. Also omitted fava beans.
The first time I looked for labne I could not find it. A very similar (maybe the same) thing that I did find in a Persian market was 'pressed yoghurt'. It worked great in the dish I was making.
