Good on you for trying fish mint again. I dare not to try it again because the fishiness is so real despite it being a herb 😅
@stephadoodledoo
i looooove fish mint! sadly, the soil i grow it in at home is too hard for me to dig up without ripping up a lot of the herb bed so i just eat the leaves for herb medley in rice paper rolls but one day I'll dig up a bunch of the roots and have me a more chinese style herb salad, the roots are soooooo much sweeter and tastier than the leaf.
@xiaolongbaoenthusiaist457
Wow you’ve tried more Chinese street food than me, someone who grew up there. I admire your spirits so much!
@AvecBella
So jealous of the tastes you get to experience there with all the flavors 😋❤

I’m so glad we have videos like these to document what might be lost culture one day
@CarinaCoffee

I got to try the zhe'er gen in Chengdu, as base for the hotpot dip. They warned me abt the flavor, that I might not like it & we were all surprised I liked it! ❤ Thought it was coriander root too & my workmates explained it wasnt ❤

I wish I'd found that when I was there, in the early 90s. I lived in Duyin, a smaller city in Guizhou. We used to visit friends in Guiyang, at Guida

Looks a little like a baked/jacket potato made from tofu & with very nice ways to use them. Do you have any ways to get ahold of the fish mint for growing at home?

Hi there and watching from 🇲🇾
@raywill3252

@CJPhu
I know what that feeling is like, for the life of me I couldn’t eat fish mint especially used in Vietnamese cooking, but only recently I could bear it and now I will add just a few in my spring roll. 😝🤪
@Nancy-ff5tr
Omg zhe'er gen! I remember eating it at my grandma's whenever I visited China as a child. I really really didn't like it but all adults encouraged us kids to eat it so we always did lol but we genuinely didn't believe anyone actually enjoyed it. I wanna try it again to see if it really was that bad hahhaha I don't remember it being fishy but instead very bitter?

Sometimes there is a reason foods become extinct. I think of it like I think of ketchup. Original it wasn't a tomato product. The first I heard of was mushroom ketchup which one of these days I will try to make it out of curiosity. As tomatoes became more popular someone decided to make a mushroom free ketchup with tomatoes that apparently was more pleasing to the palette. Now, people are coming up with new flavors to add to ketchup. Who knows, one day our great grandchildren will no longer be able to just buy a bottle of good old plain tomato ketchup.
@hghway1
I wouldn’t be able to eat that since fish mint is the only herb I cannot eat. I love pretty much every other type of herb but 🐟 mint is putrid to me but my parents love it.
@MAjaLeahHB
that looks amazing 😭
@amateurtriesit4068
