[@TheGingaWeirdo]

My local China Wok closed down AGAIN after only 3 years of being reopened. The owner, a little old Asian lady, always walks around town with a shopping cart that she loads up with cans, which she scraps for money that she spends at the local produce stand. She always gets the reduced price produce, the food that was gonna get thrown away later that day. She takes that half spoiled food to her restaurant, and her four underage children work in the kitchen cooking all of it. I've even seen her at the local animal shelter, looking at cats. She goes to the animal twice a week, and always "adopts" three or four cats. I swear I once found a cat claw in my honey "chicken". That was the last time I ate there. And coincidentally two weeks later the whole place got shut down, doors all taped shut with red tape. I haven't seen her walking for cans lately,but I have seen her at the animal shelter picking up cats. I guess her kids still gotta eat.

Chinese restaurants also add baking soda in the marinade. It's called "velveting".

[@PWCDN]

its because they use cheap beef and it helps to tenderize. In this example, he's using a very high grade of a very high cut. Not your typical eye of round most Chinese restaurant use.

For cheap beef cuts only. Never do that with a quality beef like most of Gugas'.

[@ozmartian2]

@@EngineeredChannel Thats incorrect. Chinese restaurants are not velveting their prime cuts of sirloin, for example. And baking soda is one form of velveting for cheaper tougher cuts of meat. Better quality meats are velvetted using more natural techniques involving egg whites etc. You'd have to be insane to ruin an expensive, quality cut of beef with baking soda. And with souse vide the meat is already tender.

I make orange sauce completely different. And fyi your orange beef was bitter because you don’t know how to properly zest an orange. The white part is where the bitterness came from. The juice itself is tart so it definitely didn’t come from there and the actual zest is not bitter

extra tip... with the cornstarch also use a little bit of baking soda. It'll help both browning and tenderness.

For cheaper, tougher cuts of beef yes, not for the marbled quality of Gugas' meat and especially not needed when doing sous vide. Chinese restaurants arent putting baking soda on their sirloin slices.

Using Tang can give you a more consistent outcome because it's the same product every time. The sweetness of an actual orange will vary from orange-to-orange. All that food looked really delicious!

Not just that, but the tang has citric acid and sugar which causes it to caramalize far sooner in the hot wok.

You want a better orange food but it's orange chicken and it's authentic because i'm American 1/2 cup fresh orange juice plus oranges zested 1/3 c brown sugar 1 teaspoon salt ginger (i dont know like tablespoon or 2) garlic (2-5 pieces) 1 teaspoon or more of corn or potato starch (depending how thick you want it 1-2 teaspooons of red pepper flakes blend or food processor it all, and it's ready or you remember you left the blender running after walking away ------------------------------------------- fry pieces of chicken thigh (only chicken thigh, never breast meat, because we aren't middle aged lonely white women). but fry in a very basic coating, can even just be all potato starch and a little salt. And fry it hot and until they go brown (about mexican or light Indian) pull out the pieces, drain the oil from wok (if using wok like me). then whatever oil is residue in wok or pan is enough (probably like 1-2 teaspoon or even a tablespoon), and you now drop in that orange sauce, then stir, and if pan or wok is hot after like 5-10 seconds (should be able to notice a slight change in stickiness) you toss in that chicken and now toss and you should see it thickening and coating that chicken. then after another 20-30 seconds that shit is ready to dump into a bowl and serve. To you starving friends who you told food would be ready 2 hours ago.
