[@paulturner3063]

A great site guys. Our local takeaway (Magor) closed recently so I have been trying to improve my Chinese cooking skills. I've got egg fried rice (chicken/beef/prawn) cracked and the curry sauce. I'm now going to try and master the Kung Po. If I ever get so that I'm confident in doing a good job at them and others I may, as a co-owner of the local pub, introduce the occasional 'Chinese' as a special on the menu (if and when things get back to normal). Many thanks.

One of my favourite dishes is Wandering Dragon. Could you do a video on how to make it sometime?.

[@janbeaton6951]

Thank you for yet another great video, you two are just so refreshing and funny!! We have learned so much. We love chinese takeaway but sadly have not had it for years as our local changed hands and it went down hill, we tried to have a go ourselves but it just didn't taste anything like and then we found you two special people; we are now cooking amazing meals. Tonight we had Beef chop suey it was superb, next up Kung po. Thank you again it is nice to go along on this journey with you. We will be sorting out our patronage asap!!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Huge thanks guys :) means a lot to read such lovely comments like this 😊😊😊😊

[@davidwhitelaw2354]

One of my favourites..a good mixture of good ingredients in 1…I leave my mixture for 1wk in fridge before use..it lets the flavours infuse

[@davidcarroll2035]

A lovely video humerus yet informative, a thing I do, ‘I only have a four ring gas hob’ is cook the onion on high to ‘get the wok breath in’ then remove after it’s seared do the same separately with the pepper then re-add when the chicken has a light sear. If I was to put it all in it drowns it and basically stews it. That’s an excellent reason for potato starch over cornflour, cornflour does return to runny sauce again if heated for too long. A great and very accurate description of a takeaway recipe. Bang on the money as always. Very great full for all you both do. Just don’t stop. Xx

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Thank you :) we will never stop, NEVVVVVAAAAAAAAA! lol and I had that problem when I was Uni, trying to cook on a ow power hob is an art many people have yet to master but it seems like you got it nailed!

I spent a week in porlock this week and ordered this from you. My wife agreed that it was the best Chinese she has ever had. Absolutely delicious. Egg fried rice and Chips were nice too!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Wow!! Thank you! That means so much to hear!

[@meadowcakes1426]

I made the Kung Po sauce, had to use the LKK Hoisin in a jar. Left in in the fridge. Next day I made the "Quick" Sweet n Sour sauce. Left that overnight. Next day I made Kung Po, and it was fantastic. Thank you for all the recipes. You guys are superb cooks. Keep Watching!!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

thanks again, you're comments mean so much to us!

[@meadowcakes1426]

Ageing the Kung Po paste makes it taste even better. I made the paste about a month ago and every time I used it, it had more flavour. Got 1 portion worth left in a jar in the fridge. I'll have to make some more soon. Age that paste! Happy Cooking!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

I couldn't agree more, we say it all the time but most people won't take the extra effort as they think it won't make much difference but it really does.

First time I ordered a kung po it was in like a white\transparent sauce with cashews, it was lovely. Everytime after it has been a red sauce without cashews but have never seen one done in a darker sauce like yours, will give it a try.

I dont know about putting less in but the Chinese I go to put a lot of meat in. I'm a regular customer there too. My favourite dishes are special chow mein, special kung pow, sui mais, salt and pepper chicken and brocolli in oyster sauce with all meats. Just can't beat the Chinese stuff

[@davidcarroll2035]

Great stuff as always, just a thought but after mixing all the ingredients together you could put the majority back into the jar you just emptied. Then it can sit and mature sealed in its nice little jar, ready for use. Mind you it might not get much time to mature lol x

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

There's to much to go back in a jar, must of missed out saying that you can store it and mature for months, all though I'm sure I recorders me saying that, must of cut it by accident

[@nitelite78]

11:06 What do you mean potato starch doesn't cook out but cornflour cooks out? If cornflour cooks out then surely it would be better to use cornflour? I take cooking out to mean it loses its raw powdery texture but maybe you mean something else.

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

No "cooking out" in shorting or thicken terms means that you've over cooked it to the point where the starch molecules start to denature and break down meaning they can no longer hold the liquid with in them. Potato starch doesn't break down so easily, and is very hard to cook out.

My younger son is a schooled chef (schooled at the CIA, Culinary Institute of America, in Hyde Park, New York), currently working in Seattle. And he, like so many, also wants to create his own small culinary oriented channel, although not so much for recipes and cooking though. More for the up and coming chefs-in-training.

Why do you say it‘s impossible to make the chicken as tender at home? Please elaborate. Wouldn‘t soaking it in baking soda and then velveting it do the job?

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Because the chicken they use is pumped with water, so it's 80% chicken and 20% water. So yes you could if you have that million $ machine lol, velveting will change the taste profile significantly and the point in this channel is to show you how a to make it exactly like a takeaway, not the closest approximation.

Chin. Your punching above your weight with the fiancee 😂🖐️😆

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Nah she lucky I even took her number ;) joke fully punching

[@anniejones5651]

Seems irrelevant but it is good to see we don't need a gas cooker!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Yeah many people think you do, but that’s just people like to make you think it’s harder than it actually is

[@casswoof1569]

I am so confused about the chicken prep!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

It's boiled chicken, you will never get it as tender as a takeaway as they use water pumped chicken which isn't sold to the public. But you kind of make it but boiling chicken breast until cooked then cooling, cut it up and then use

[@davidcarroll2035]

Sorry Chin my bad. You do mention about maturing it. I blame my age. Xx

[@marco168888]

I’ll give you one credit! You’re better than that Taiwanese chee woman... but that ain’t kung po

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

It is in our takeaways and the many I’ve worked in, but takeaway food isn’t traditional food, we say that I’m pretty much every video, love how people think their experts 😂😂😂😂
