Cooking tips

  • Starch powder can clump if added when hot, so be sure to dissolve it in the cold sauce before turning on the heat.
  • Dark soy sauce is used for a delicious, deep color; if you don't have it, you can substitute with regular soy sauce or omit it.
  • You can further enhance the flavor by adding ginger juice or cooking wine to the sauce base, according to your preference.
  • When stir-frying bean sprouts, adding a tablespoon of vinegar just before turning off the heat can eliminate their raw smell and maintain a crisp texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to quickly use up leftover vegetables and meat in their refrigerator.
  • Those who want to successfully make glossy, thick stir-fried dishes at home that taste like they're from a Chinese restaurant.
  • Those who find it bothersome to measure seasoning ratios every time they cook and want to make a batch to use.
