I guess lard is pig fat? It's cow fat.

I looked the video up because it's super cool. It's beef fat.

Now can anyone identify all of the spices in the spice bowl? Starts with star anise and that's about as far as I get.

If you don’t mind me going back and forth on google translate for the next 15 minutes… (a lot of these are going to be Chinese spices you’ve never heard of)

八角 Star anise
草果 Tsaoko
甘草 Licorice
白扣 "White buttons"
香草 Vanilla
香皮 Xiangpi... Periploca?
楂皮 Hawthorn peel?
丁香 Cloves
碧波 Long peppercorn
良姜 Ginger
黄挂 Looks like cinnamon (literally "yellow hanging")
挂皮 Might be a different type of cinnamon (literally "hanging leather")
毛沙仁 Wurfbainia villosa
香菜籽 Coriander seeds

栀子 Gardenia

Thank you! I watched it about a dozen times and was mesmerized by the spices. I also appreciate flavoring the oil with cilantro and celery.

Also holy poo poo this is a derail, to get it back on track I watched Jodorowsky's Dune last night. Dude literally tried to get Dali to play Emperor Corrino.

The best part of the thing was seeing H.R Giger talk about it, he made 5 presentations for the Harkonnen castle and this is my favorite:

The design also makes a cameo in Prometheus.

Thanks for that, holy crap mid 80s-Japanese commercials are amazing on their own.

Jodorwsky's Dune was the first time I actually paid attention to Giger's work, it's spectacular.
