Minced up #MuiChoy - #preserved #mustard fried up with garlic & #GroundPork. Savoury, classic cultural dish that is simple to make. It goes very well with congee or steamed rice.
Speaking in #Teochew with English #translations.I'm saving the other large mui choy for a traditional braised pork dish.

This video resonates with me & my family a lot. However, our family's experience as #Teochew #WarRefugees, leaving Saigon, was a lot more nightmarish & much more violent than this Mom's experience. One of my Aunties had joined the Vietcong as a medic & communications officer, after quitting her job as an ICU nurse & lived in tunnels for several years. We also had no family or friends who were already living in North America so trying to integrate into life here was more challenging.
I can understand everything they say in Teochew. There's only a few words they say differently than we do - I'll do a video with my Mom soon to point out the differences. They speak a form of Teochew #diaspora in Vietnam, that most of us #Gaginang refer to as #Vietnam villagers Teochew. We speak the Teochew that #Saigon gaginang used since early #displacement from #China years back(a long, long time ago).

#decolonization #education - Don't just approach people like me, because we look #Asian #Chinese & #assume we speak the same language by trying to speak bad #Engrish or trying to talk to us in a #language that isn't even ours. We have huge variances on #AsianLanguages & even more if you explore #TribalLanguages 🤲
How about asking us what language we speak first, before trying to impress us w/bad #linguistics that aren't even our language? -
