With the dried red peppers, I've learned you can cook them whole in the dish and then remove them before serving. This way they impart some heat into the dish and the seeds stay inside the peppers, so it doesn't get very hot. I use them a lot.

Here's a tip. Before putting the chicken in the wok, flavor the oil with garlic and ginger, for just a few seconds. You don't want to burn it, but you'll use it later. Chinese cooking is all about cooking everything separately and properly and then putting it all together at the end. I watched my wife, who was Chinese, do this many times at light speed, and it was AMAZING!

@@kevindownes9474 interesting, I'm guessing then the Szechuan version is what I'm referring to. Though it strikes me as odd how a dish made in America would have had access to the specific ingredients that were largely not available 50-75+ years ago to find a home in China. Or am I missing something.

@salernolake Жыл бұрын

Great video chef! Here are some observations from an old wok warrior. Chinese cooks will often drop the garlic, ginger and chillis together in first for a few seconds, to flavor the oil. Then they add the onions, with a sprinkle of both sugar and salt, followed by the other vegetables, generally in order from longest cooking time, to shortest. Chinese cooks use a ladle to stir the contents of the wok, and they stir constantly!

@theoldbigmoose Жыл бұрын

Neil you are spot on. Exactly how I was taught by a touring Chinese chef at the local community college through the translator. He also called the marinade with cornstarch and a touch of baking soda "the blanket" used to make the protein tender. I was also surprised at the amount of garlic and oil he used. He was not shy with the garlic.

@siongheeleong8078 Жыл бұрын

@@theoldbigmoose Chinese cooking is rarely shy with garlic. Oftentimes, it is generous with the garlic.

@siongheeleong8078 Жыл бұрын

Usually, you can start with the ginger first in a dry wok for a few seconds. This helps to "wake up" the ginger before adding the vegetable oil and followed by the dried chillies. Once the dried chillies releases its aroma, then only you add in the chopped garlic. This is to avoid burning the chopped garlic as it cooks faster than the ginger and dried chillies.

But, more importantly, there's so much value in Chef JP's remarks as he cooks you can't help but come out a better cook. One example, he regularly announces substitute ingedients to use if you don't have something in the recipe. There's gold in them hills.
