Man, I want to make this recipe. Any tips on where to find the red curd and the salted wine? I'm in a rural area and dont have a good Asian market. Thanks! Best I have seen!

@predwrk I don't really know, sorry, I suggest checking around online, or maybe see if an asian market in an urban center will mail you some?

Hi @danrt50,

I'm Cantonese and I have to say... YES! The fact that you identify the liberal basics of this recipe and he laissez-faire attitude of non-western cooking; good job. I'm sure this tastes amazing and I will for sure be using this with my family when we don't want to go out for dim sum.

Great modern approach! Absolutely gorgeous results!

@stompasaurusrex thank you

This looks good! Very authentic. Where did you learn this traditional Hong Kong BBQ?

[danrt50]

@meabook thanks, i did research plus i lived in vancouver for quite some time so i knew the taste was right when i got it.

@danrt50 where did you get the bean curd and rice wine?

@youttube1977 yep. there's allot of pre-made Char Siu sauces by a handful of companies. Most are very good and a couple bucks for a jar that goes along way if you marinade in bags. add by tablespoon and work around until covered(in bag). I'm pretty sure every Chinese dive uses store bought Char Siu sauce, tastes exactly the same. I made this recipe many times before i got clue. :) asian isle in every supermarket.

Can you use Sherry instead of rice wine?
