And on the tour in America

I discovered my favourite soup dumpling brand: Xiao Chi Jie

This is Uncle Roger second best discovery here

Right after Auntie Esther

It actually even better because I can take this home with me

So today Uncle Roger at soup dumpling factory

And this the owner, nephew Caleb

When Uncle Roger first try your soup dumpling

I so surprised

Because it frozen

But it still taste so good after you cook fuiyoh

So there's a misconception here that frozen dumplings just means bad

But we've done a lot of work at XCJ

To make sure you steam it up at home

It taste exactly like, uh, I'm not gonna name it

-Name it -Or any other dim sum restaurant

Why you so pussy? name it

Din Tai Feng, we coming at ya

Din Tai Feng, that pretentious dumpling shop?

Yep

$15 for 3 dumpling, who want to eat that?

Can't afford that

Haiyaa

How much your dumpling?

About 80 cents

You can throw this at your children if they don't listen to you, it almost free

Make sure your pan is boiling with water

Put it like this, make sure they're little bit of apart

And then put it on the boil

And then 10 minutes

Now we wait for it to cook

Uncle Roger also like the texture of this dumpling

It feel so good

Look at me, just fondling

You pretty good at that

Yeah? Uncle Roger do that every night in hotel, I so lonely

Nephew Caleb, you married?

I am married

Your wife fond your dumpling like this?

We've married for 8 years, so of course not

Fuiyoh

Alright, 10 minutes and you get this at home

It looks so good

Let's get some chopsticks

Haiya, come all the way here to film, you don't prepare

It's a dumpling factory, it's not a dim sum house

So what if white people don't have this wood steamer?

So we sell the online as well

And actually 50% of people decide buy as well

Yeah ,it very smart you sell online

Because I think when white people go to Chinatown grocery store

They too scared to buy this

They scare people think that cultural appropriation or something

It okay, white people, just take our culture

Uncle Roger favourite Asian actress is Scarlett Johansson

Eating this have to be super careful, the soup will squirt out

First step of making Xiao Long Bao is to make dumpling skin

You start with white powder

No no no, not that type of white powder, haiya

It just regular flour, don't snort it

You dump white powder into machine

Now you just look at machine and wait

Think about your sad life

Why do the people you love always leave you

And next step we make dumpling filling

Fuiyoh, so much meat in here

Look at this, this is vegan's worst nightmare, flavour

How you turn on?

It's a safety mechanism, so you have to, like, have this close first

It's to prevent fingers from getting in there, you know

Oh, how many finger?

Because of this trade secret mechanism

We got no finger stuck today

-Really? no finger? -no finger

-Are you sure? -I can promise you, no fingers

Ok, camera cut, camera cut

Off camera, the camera not rolling, any finger?

No fingers, no fingers

-You sure? -No fingers

But I taste so good, I thought

It is good, it is good

If you lose few children finger

-Have you try human fingers? -No

Haiyaa

No bats in here either

-No bat? -No bats

People come in all the time, "are there bats in here?"

We don't put bats

Listen, listen, Uncle Roger work too hard

Somebody please eat another bat

We put the whole world on holiday for two more year

There you go

They are spinning, yeah

Is this what they call meatspin?

Niece and nephew, go Google meatspin, thank me later

What if I open this? It stop, haiyaa

That's how you prevent the fingers

You gotta show the camera, what's happening

-Can we trick the machine to think it close? -No

See, life hack, Uncle Roger brought magnet, it cheat the system

-See? -That's how you get the fingers in

Yeah

-Put your finger in there -No, no

Soy sauce, vinegar, salt and white pepper

And some MSG

MSG?

Yeah, some MSG in there

So little, in that not enough

That too little MSG, nephew Caleb

Uncle Roger need more, my king of flavour

MSG

Some extra flavour in there

Nice

We've finished our dough, we finished our meat with extra MSG

The special Uncle Roger formula

And now we gonna form our dumplings

This, this

No, no, not this, this

This, this, this

The CEO don't know shit

Need to ask all his coworker haiyaa

How you hire them?

Got the experts

Why they know more than you?

That's how it should be

So if they don't come, the whole factory shut down

That's correct

Ok

I hope your guys hear that, ask him for more money

Ask him to give you raise, he useless

Nice

I feel like I clubbing

We're in Ibiza

Dough is on the outside, meat is on the inside

Fuiyoh, the machine never stop?

Never stops, works 24/7

This machine working harder than Amber Heard lawyer

There we go, done for the day

This emergency button

So if someone finger stuck in there, you just press

Nice, nice

Anyone lose finger here?

No, not here either, look at this

-What is that? -There is warning

-You think that warning -That's enough, that's all we need

And see here, what does all this mean?

You see all the little line, what is this?

Yeah, so we have some days we make pork, some days we make chicken

and we have the day shift in the night shift

And then each line is the batch

So many dumpling and you see here

Pork day

That what Uncle Roger called every day with Auntie Helen

Oh fuiyoh, see, it come out look so good

So this is our typical results

Unfortunately today with the special MSG formulation, there's a little bit of mistep, so

We have to engineer a little bit more for our recipe

So you changed recipe and it all fucked up like this

Yeah it takes a lot of work to get it consistent

Haiyaa, but it okay

Sometimes things don't need to look that good

See,it still at edible

Usually we donate some that are not up to spec

So you think homeless people don't deserve pretty food?

Your machine fucked up

I just put more MSG and your machine can't handle

Get better, machine

Your ingredients for your dumpling is just pork, shrimp and chicken

Right now it's 3 flavours

If you want to sell it to white people

You need to put some truffle in there

White people love truffle

You see how excited they get?

Truffle is like white people's MSG

You put it on there, they would eat anything

Hit like now if you like truffle

Now we bagging them on a line

If you go over here, you can see it's 50 dumplings per bag

50 per bag? and all so accurate?

-Exactly yeah -Who counting? they all counting

So we've measured this perfectly, so there are exactly 50 in a bag

So there just one look, they know it 50?

Exactly, yeah

Do you only hire rain man to work for you?

Exactly, that's the secret at XCJ, only rain men

Look at this

-Little girl so sad because the brother got bigger dumpling than her -Yep

Serving size is 4 dumpling, haiyaa

4 dumpling so little, who eat just 4 dumpling?

Why is it 4? What is it based off?

So dumplings, the FDA classified it as a sandwich

And so that's just the weight for the dumplings, so

Don't ask us, we didn't make the rules

-So FDA think this is a sandwich? -Yeah

Nephew Caleb, thank you much for showing Uncle Roger your factory

Totally, thank you for coming by

Now soup dumpling so good

Hey don't eat that, we made that like half an hour ago, it's cold now
