    For everyone asking why there is no salt:
    Soy sauce gives the dish the saltiness!
    Edit: You can add garlic and ginger to this also.

    I wish you could be with me to tell my mother and friends that “ WE DON’T NEED TO BOIL NOODLES !”😉 I realized this myself, if you accidentally drop a dry noodle in a puddle of water on your counter, you will come back a while later and you will see that the noodle has gotten soft and sucked up the water. So why boil noodles ?? They always continue to cook after taken off the heat, which ends up making them too soft. Intake a pot of hot water out of the tap, throw the noodles in it while I cook the rest of the dish, then by the time that I’m done cooking, the noodles are ready to be drained and thrown on top of my dish and mixed in. I love this recipe for chow mien the best on CZcams. The technique and marinade recipe this man is using is just perfect. 👍👍👍👍

    • @SchoolofWok
      @SchoolofWok  Před rokem +1

      @@SchoolofWok Ha, ha, glad to here that. It’s really hard to get an accurate softness to noodles when under heat on a stove. Like I said, they continue cooking after they’re taken off the heat. I think soaking them in hot water, then letting the water cool , so they are quitting the cooking gradually. I just made some on Sunday for my chow mein and they are perfect. Cheers

    But seriously, I tried this recipe and followed your instructions. Jeremy, the results were fa-nominal! Best stir fry my wife and I have ever made. Thank you for sharing your techniques and recipe with us. You are a true Star Chef!
    On a side note: had a little amount of uncooked chicken thigh left (I prepared too much). Whipped up some of that stir fry sauce real quick, stir fried the chicken till mostly done, and finally added that sauce. Wow! Kinda made a charred flavor chicken. Possible a little bourbon would have made it similar to Bourbon Chicken. Again thanks!

    You might want to mention in future videos, that you're using a carbon steel wok. A cast iron wok, Like I own, will cause s--t to go sideways in a hurry if it's "smoking hot" which you seem so dead set on. The problem is 'cast iron' (while a fine wok) doesn't transfer heat like carbon steel, and does not develop a smoky flavor, that is added to foods as it seasons with use. Smoking Hot in my iron wok, turned the ginger and garlic to a sticky black mess. Be aware of the pan you are using and its reaction to high temperatures.
    Now, concerning your videos, I love them! I enjoy watching you cook and have chose several of your recipes. You certainly know what you're doing. For us amateurs though, you might want to add some additional details. Cheers!

      I thought it prudent that I should apologize (rookie stir fry cook that I am) for being a bit harsh perhaps. The ginger I was using is not fresh, its paste from a jar. So, in fairness to you, the ginger it seems (paste) caramelizes at any temperature, I found. However, I do have to cook on a lower heat with the cast iron Wok, which is a fine wok. I am getting a carbon steel wok in February, however, and will try it to see how it fares. I really enjoy your videos by the way. Cheers!

    Dear friend,
    Thank you very much for sharing that cooking recipe with us. I enjoyed watching it.
    As a subscriber, I should appreciate if you can demonstrate us how to cook "Chicken Magic Bowl" (Le Bol Renversé Poulet). It is a Sino-Mauritian recipe gaining popularity whereby to prepare it:
    One puts chopped chives at the bottom of the bowl.
    Then one adds a poached egg with the shinny liquid egg yolk facing down the bottom of the bowl.
    Afterwards adds the chicken chop suey.
    Next one heaps up the rest of the bowl with steamed rice.
    Finally one covers the bowl with a cooking plate, rotates the bowl 180 degrees and removes the bowl.
    The difficult part of the recipe is to prepare the sauce.
    I hope that you can show us the secret to preparing the sauce.

    JUST BEING CURIOUS; MY WIFE WAS BORN AND RAISED IN CHINA, ANHUI PROVINCE, AND HER PRONOUNCIATION OF VOWELS IS EXTREMLY SIMILAR TO THE WAY MOST CONTINENTAL EUROPEANS PRONOUNCE THE VOWELS (VERY SIMILAR TO LATIN). SO SHE ALWAYS SAYS CHAO MIEN BY DISTINCLY PRONOUNCING BOTH "I" AND "E" IN "MIEN", THE SAME WAY SLAVS OR LATIN LANGUAGES SPEAKER WOULD, WHILE YOU SAY IT AS A GERMAN AND FUSE "IE" IN A SINGLE VOWEL. I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS HOW YOU TALK WHERE YOUR FAMILY COMES FROM (ASSUMING YOU ARE ALSO OF CHINESE DECENT)? IN EITHER WAY, THANK YOU FOR DELICIOUS RECIPE.

      One has to wield his tool, well sharpened, preferably! I've watched so many videos of people struggling with knifes, it looks clumsy and flashily.
      The worst are those Indian "home cooking" ones, where they use an axe pinned in the backyard to chop everything. I cringe every time I see one of those. But there are plenty of videos where people seem to have a knife in their hand first time... Chef Jeremy is one of the rare exceptions.

    I made it!! Ok, there were some issues but I stuck by the basic recipe as close as possible. Because hubby tried to use my wok for popcorn (i know, don’t ask) i had to use a giant skillet. I used only whatever veggies I had in fridge and some suspicious chicken I intended for something else. I did it!! It still came out great and my family loved it (but mine was too greasy)! Next time it will be even better. Thanks for the great tutorial!!!!

  • @1over137
    @1over137 Před 2 lety

    Getting the wok hot enough has always been my problem. I have finally got a gas hob installed with a proper high power ring which will now get my wok smoking hot and I can start to enjoy non-soggy stir fry. I have been making my chow mein with just the Tesco meal deal, noodles, chopped veg and sauce. I hardly use the sauce. Just fry chicken or prawns, then add veg, then add noodles. I came here to learn what I can do next to make it taste more authentic. Seems HOT WOK, sesame oil are the two big take aways here.
    I'll have to check out your "how not to get stodgy fried rice" next. I can't stop it sticking without flooding it in oil :( Then it taste nice, but it's drooling in oil.

    • @1over137
      @1over137 Před 2 lety

      The gas hob means I can actually now scrub and properly seal my wok. I just couldn't get it to seal/season on an electric ring. So it has only seasoned with use over time. I did get some progress using a BBQ, but it also coated the bottom of the wok in black carbon. Maybe I should just get a new one and season it outdoors with a blow torch! They are only £5 in the chinese cash and carry.

    I added a tablespoon of fermented black beans, a clove of garlic, and used Chinese spinach instead of choi sum (which I could not source). I also added a teaspoon of xiouxin wine to the sauce. For the marinade, I tossed in a generous pinch of corn flour and baking soda to velvet the chicken thighs. Otherwise, made exactly as shown. This recipe is more of a framework than an exact how-to. And as always, no matter how much you try to scale the recipe down to two servings, it makes enough for 3 to 4 meals. Wonderful and delicious. Thanks as always, Jeremy.

    Hi, thanks for a great video! I have a question. I notice that stir fried noodles (or rice) is often fried in wok over burners with real fire in it. And often while tumbling the food the flames are literally going in to the wok. Do you think cooking over high fire is something that affects the flavor?

    Hiya,
    I’ve just come across your channel & i’m really keen on learning to cook chinese food. I’m disabled, & I’m not sure I have the strength to lift & flick a wok pan, is this still ok? Can I just stir & get the same results?
    Also - very comforting that you’re using an induction hob, SO many people insist on using gas & it really worried me that the induction cooker I just purchased wouldn’t be up to the job but I can tell it’ll be just fine! I’m excited to start my journey! Thank you so very much for your wonderful, easy to follow recipes!
    Take care, blessings

    • @SchoolofWok
      @SchoolofWok  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Laura, flicking and lifting the pan are quite important aspects to controlling the heat. However with induction hobs, I'm sure you can slide the wok off the heat and then just give it a good stir to dissipate the heat! I wouldn't worry too much about the flicks and lifting as long as you can do that! - Lee
