Can’t agree enough about learning how to cook with a clay pot as a good general teaching component. My family is Italian and I learned more from Korean grannies on CZcams about fire and heat than a childhood of watching my family cook. I love my clay pot!
Enjoy your approach to cooking, Wally. Look forward to videos as you generally include nostalgic historical angles. Great recipes and videos…You’re tops in my book!
Thank you for sharing your recipes . You do not have to apologize when you say "urz", if it's good, then it's good. Your rice recipe looked real good and comforting to me!!!!
I have only been subscribed for a few months but really enjoy the Videos, they are very informative and easy to follow. Keep up the good work and Happy New Year Wally.
Happy New Year Wally and well done. I am in the market now for a clay pot and will definitely try this recipe. Since I BBQ a lot, I am also going to get the original type pot to cook over the coals as well
Hi Wally. That clay pot dish looks very yummy! Two questions. In your recipe you note 1/4 teaspoon and 1 Tablespoon of rice wine but you only used 1/4 teaspoon in the sauce. Is the amount optional? Also, can you heat the clay pot on an electric stove? Thanks and Happy New Year.
Hello Chuck! How’s it going? The 1/4 teaspoon should be Rice Vinegar for the sauce not Rice Wine. If I said that on video I made a boo boo 😂 Thank you for watching Chuck, I hope you and your family have a wonderful 2022 😃
Hey Jimbort, how's it going bro?! 😀 You can also try with dutch oven first if you've got one. Won't be the same but pretty close, can try it out first 👍
I really like this video. I recently made clay pot rice it came out great but my question is that when u put in the marinated pork ribs, is 5 min enough to cook it through?
My kitchen set up is hotter than most household kitchens. For you at home you can just take one out and see if it’s cooked or not. Thank you very much for watching 🙏😃
Hey Wally, I can't seem to reply to your comment but I'm using a fairly standard Chinese semi glazed pot .. the sort you see in videos on claypot cooking. It actually has a few cracks in it now but the wires seem to hold it together and it doesn't leak. I've tried also putting the pot into the oven as well as some people suggest but I think that just bakes your proteins and makes them dry. It just seems tricky to get the balance right and I'm surprised no one else has these issues. I guess I'll just keep trying differing amounts of rice to water ratios.
Hey how's it going? Have you tried soaking your claypot overnight, fully submerged in water? I've never baked with claypot though it does sound interesting.
@WallyCooksEverything I've only soaked the claypot overnight when I first seasoned it and not really since. Here's a copy of recipes that use an oven czcams.com/video/szs1fQ0lcco/video.htmlsi=RrUtq5H8Nt6QKNQG and czcams.com/video/rL0QUPfl5-w/video.htmlsi=cy6y8ZA_TRphLMrI but those hawker stalls seem to do it so effortlessly!
Hi, how's it going? Yes I actually did that with my next video when I used charcoal to cook chicken and mushroom for that reason. We're on the same wavelength 😀 Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you and your family have an excellent 2022😀
I gotta learn to do this all in my oven, cos I only have an electric range, and I'm nearly positive it'll break my clay pot :/ My pot (with the lid on) does fit into my airfryer though, so it'll be an experiment...
I asked my grand uncle to buy me 2 of these pots just in case one breaks while I'm learning. Can you teach us how to prepare them before a first time use and how to clean them after cooking?
Ahh thank you for bringing this up 😃 Your grand Uncle is right! These clay pots have to be seasoned. Even though super heavy and looks durable it will crack if there’s no liquids inside for too long. I will make a video on how to season clay pots when I get a chance 😃 Have a Great New Years!
I inherited some old claypots (glazed only in interior) and a gas stove. You advised against using these on a gas stove, but are there "work around" methods so I can try making a claypot meal on my gas stove?
Hello Betty 😃 you can use your clay pot on gas range. What I meant was clay pots were designed to be used over coal. I recommend soaking your inherited clay pots fully submerged in water over night first before use. Because if you don’t use it for really long time it can really dry out and crack during cooking.
Hello, how are you? 😀 Yes about 5 minutes, including the time to steam inside after switching off heat. Claypots are really great for keeping heat inside 👍 and is strong enough to cook spareribs to perfection with residual heat.
I made a chicken and mushroom version recently. I used chicken wings but you can use chicken thigh which is restaurants use. But I some spare wings and didn't want to waste. Thank you for watching and Happy New Years! 😀
I find it always tricky to get the meat in at the right time. Wait too late and there's not enough steam to cook the proteins. Too early and you end up boiling instead of steaming.
Hey how’s it going? I never really had that problem. What kind of cooking pot were you using. I did notice once using a friends pot it was thinner. So the pot did not retain enough heat to steam. Maybe for the final steaming turn your fire in the lowest setting. Check often cause if too dry your clay pot will crack.

Thank you for the kind words Greg 😃 Hope you and your family have an excellent New Years!
Great explanation about glazed and un-glazed, coal fire and stove top! Thank you, sir.
Thanks for sharing Wally!
Thank you for sharing your recipe and how you explain I really like. Thank you so much

That is one of my favorite dish of all time, too bad we don't have a Chinese restaurant that make this dish.
Mine too 😃 Well you can try make it at home now. They don’t sell these in Thailand so I made it myself 👍 Really not difficult at all.

Good job, I normally squirt oil around the side of the clay pot once the rice is half way cooked so the fan jiu won't stick to the bottom

@@WallyCooksEverything , thanks! Will do! These have great sentimental value to me. Looking forward to cooking with them!
the pork cooks in 5 mins? love ur videos.

@@WallyCooksEverything Wow. That’s amazing. Thanks. I have to try it. Where do you find those in USA? Looks delicious . 😃
@@LM33333Asian grocery stores often sell the pots.
Can you teach us how to make a soup? Hot and sour soup? Thanks. 👍
Hello! Yup I have a hot and sour soup video already. Should be able to find it on my playlist 😃

Yummy!!! Is there a chicken thigh version?

A cup and half of rice is 2 servings but no more. I could eat the pot because I'm an animal hahaha
Where are the crispy bits? Needed more time.
Looks good but you just have to much sausage 😜.
