How to Make Oyster Sauce, from Scratch (自制蚝油) | Chinese Cooking Demystified

So we wanted to show you how to make oyster sauce from scratch. Making traditional Chinese oyster sauce is something that there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on, so we were hoping we could fill the void a bit.

Traditional oyster sauce is the by-product of making dried oysters, so we decided it would be worthwhile to show you how to sun dry oysters as well. And because dried oysters might not be a very well known ingredient, we'll also show you how to make a simple homestyle dish using them: oyster braised pork ribs.

As always, the /r/cooking post is over here. Sorry about forgetting it in the outro!

ABOUT US
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Learn how to cook real deal, authentic Chinese food! We post recipes every Tuesday (unless we happen to be travelling) :)

We're Steph and Chris - a food-obsessed couple that lives in Shenzhen, China. Steph is from Guangzhou and loves cooking food from throughout China - you'll usually be watching her behind the wok. Chris is a long-term expat from America that's been living in China and loving it for the last nine years - you'll be listening to his explanations and recipe details, and doing some cooking at times as well.

This channel is all about learning how to cook the same taste that you'd get in China. Our goal for each video is to give you a recipe that would at least get you close to what's made by some of our favorite restaurants here. Because of that, our recipes are no-holds-barred Chinese when it comes to style and ingredients - but feel free to ask for tips about adaptations and sourcing too!
