    Hey Jeremy, some time ago, you mentioned in a video that you use the cleaver for almost everything. That got me to thinking because my one of my knife sets which is over 20 years old has a cleaver. And I have never used. So that night, I tried it. Since then, it is practically the only knife I've used for my kitchen duties. Now I'm down to the cleaver and a smaller utility knife so both of my knife sets sit almost totally ignored. Seriously, the cleaver does great on garlic and ginger, to slicing chicken breast, and makes a great scraper. And it stays sharp! Many thanks for your few minutes that you spent talking about that implement.

      Yo mate a bit suggestion here, try to handle a cleaver with a different technic might be better. The furthest part away from hand is for chopping regular veges or meat, the middle part is for slicing horizontally and the part nearest to your hand is for cut the bones or some hard pieces of stuff.

    Jeremy and Lee, two of the most important tips I have learned from you are the Wok Clock and getting the wok really hot. I finally got a cooktop with a wok burner at 22 000 BTUs so not only to I get good heat but also a fast recovery time. Thanks so much for your great demonstrations!

    I love your cooking demos and techniques, especially the one about adding a bit of water to deglaze the wok and transfer additional wok hei into fried rice and noodles. I have also been adding a bit of water when cooking large batches of sliced/diced chicken or pork, which I can bag and freeze for later use in quick small batches of fried rice or noodles, instant noodles and such. I use a high pressure outdoor propane wok burner and find that after an initial lower heat sear to separate the raw protein, a brief medium heat to get a good sear without burning-over-charring to half cook the center of the protein, then add some water and briefly finish on full heat without burning/ causing the meat to stick to the wok as the water semi poaches the center to a very moist doneness with excellent wok hei. Cheers!

      This was honestly such a horrible lesson on cooking. NO REAL Asian chef would EVER press down on meat to get a sear. That's not even amateur. That's idiotic. You let the wok hay speak for itself to get the Maillard reaction. By keeping veggies in with meat at the same time, your taking away heat from searing the meat. Again, lazy and amateurish. I can't speak for the recipe itself since I haven't tried it but for the love of Asian cooking, please stop teaching people to press down on meat. Wtf???

    I just made this recipe, and I wanted to say that it was very delicious. I made it exactly as shown, with one exception which I will get to shortly. The flavors that washed over my tongue were complex, but nicely balanced between sweet and salty. I did make one mistake that I will not make in the future. I could not find the birds eye chili, so I substituted two serrano chilis, and an habanero chili I had on had that I did not want to waste. With the Szechuan peppercorns, 5 dried Thai red chilis, the spicy Pixian bean paste, the serranos, and especially the habanero, I had a five alarm fire in my mouth. It was the spiciest dish I have ever eaten. I survived, but I think I will go with just the one birds eye, jalapeno or serrano chili next time along with the other spicy ingredients.

    Jeremy I want to share with you my honest belief on why I love your channel and why I subscribed to it. Yes you know your culinary dishes(after all you're Asian), but big deal, every UA-cam cooker knows their recipes, but what sets you apart from sooooo many other chefs (I almost said cooks) is your ability to narrate. You have a great talent to reach down deep inside and teach us westerners the inspiration of Asian cuisine. The methodology, the inspiration, the feeling behind it all is incredible. You are sooo young yet so very gifted and most importantly your approach so very strongly conveys your LOVE of sharing Asian cooking to westerners. Thanks so much.

I wonder however, if you can recommend something as an appropriate substitute ingredient for the Chinese Cooking Wine in the marinade. I do not care to consume anything with alcohol in it so it would be nice to have a kind of 'go to' and reliable and predictable substitute ingredient to use in its place.

      You dont really get any of the alcohol when you add the sauce in a screaming hot wok. If you are really concerned, keep the cooking wine separate and add it just before the rest of the liquid ingredients. The high heat will flash off the alcohol (even though you dont see a flame). I regularly make peppercorn demi glace sauce for steak with scotch or brandy as a flavoring that my 4 year old eats but I add it to a hot pan and cook off the alcohol first (I would not actually let my son imbibe) then add demi glaceand cream.

    I'm surprised about the prepping of the ground szechuan peppercorn. I was taught to lightly roast first, then pound out, then sift through a fine mesh strainer, discarding the husks. Also, you're not really going to get wok hay from an induction stove. I'd also suggest chopping your pixian bean paste since it usually comes with large pieces of beans. Both Kenji Lopez and Fuschia Dunlop suggest likewise. Gotta say...I had to rewind to that prepping of the red bell pepper (capsicum) a few times - that was like magic!

      That friend of yours must be joking with you. Sichuanese cuisine is full of chicken dishes (definitely more than their duck dishes). Sure, the one shown in this video isn't one of them (I'm sure it's nice, but just not Sichuanese).

    • @lovice
      @lovice 4 роки тому

      Thanks for your reply. The answer is ‘no’. Sichuan being one of China’s biggest, most populated and richest in history provinces, different cities and counties all have their very own style chicken dishes. Not just one chicken dish per county either, each county/city has dozens of chicken dishes from boiled, steamed, stir fried with bone and skin, stir fried without bone or skin, slowly stewed, quickly blanched... Then there are over 200 counties/cities in the province, that isn’t even counting the municipality city of Chongqing formally the second city of Sichuan. There isn’t a dish called French Chicken in France, and there isn’t a dish called Sichuan Chicken in Sichuan either...

      If I spend $2000 to buy a ticket from JFK to China, and then travel to Sichuan, to step into a local restaurant, and order a "Sichuan Chicken", they will look at me as Papa Smurf.

      @@khaleefax9553 True, but that will happen in your local Sichuanese restaurant too. I'm sue there are a few authentic ones in NY now, as we have quite a few Chinese restaurants specialise in Sichuan cuisine in the UK. So, the easiest way to choose the 'correct' Chinese restaurant inside China or not, is by asking where the head chef comes from. Because Chinese cuisines are very regional. Unless you grow up in the region, trained as a chef in the region and cooked professionally in the region, doesn't matter if you are the greatest chef from another region of China, you are nothing as far as people in this region concern.

    Great tutorial. Most of all because you're cooking on electric and not some very expensive gas stove with a wok burner like you see in most videos but almost nobody has in their home. In my country cooking on gas is very expensive so a lot of people switched to cooking on electric. You also use what looks like an affordable wok and not some crazy expensive one and simple affordable ingredients everybody can buy in their local supermarket. I can do this on my stand alone one zone induction plate with my 'cheap' wok. Great and I love it.
