Read More General Tso's Chicken 1、PLACE SAUCE INGREDIENTS IN A QUART JAR WITH A LID AND SHAKE TO MIX. IF YOU MAKE THIS AHEAD OF TIME JUST REFRIGERATE UNTIL NEEDED, SHAKING IT AGAIN WHEN YOU ARE READY TO USE IT. THIS ALSO KEEPS YOUR DIRTY DISHES DOWN. 2、MIX CORNSTARCH SLURRY IN A LARGE BOWL- THE MIXTURE WILL BE STRANGE BUT TRUST ME IT WORKS. IT WILL BE VERY THICK ALMOST PASTE LIKE. ADD ALL THE CHICKEN PIECES AND STIR TO COAT. USING A FORK REMOVE ONE CHICKEN PIECE AT A TIME AND LET THE EXCESS MIXTURE DRIP OFF. YES EVEN THOUGH THE MIXTURE HAS A WEIRD CONSISTENCY IT WILL NOT STICK LIKE PASTE AND THE EXCESS WILL DRIP OFF. ADD CHICKEN TO THE HOT (350 DEGREE) OIL AND FRY UNTIL CRISPY. ONLY COOK 7 OR 8 CHICKEN PIECES AT A TIME. YOU DO NOT WANT TO LOWER THE TEMP OF THE OIL BY COOKING TOO MANY AT A TIME. YOU CAN USE A SIMPLE COOKING OR CANDY THERMOMETER TO JUDGE THE TEMP OF THE OIL. 3、DRAIN ON PAPER TOWELS. WANT THEM EXTRA CRISPY? PUT THEM ON A RACK OVER A SHEET PAN. KEEP WARM- I JUST PUT THEM IN THE OVEN WITH THE OVEN OFF. REPEATING UNTIL ALL CHICKEN IS FRIED. 4、IN A SEPARATE WOK OR LARGE SKILLET ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL AND HEAT TO 400 DEGREES. AGAIN, A CANDY THERMOMETER WORKS GREAT. (WANT LESS DISHES? YOU CAN JUST DRAIN THE OIL AFTER YOU FRY ALL THE CHICKEN, LEAVE A SMALL AMOUNT (ABOUT A TSP) IN THE PAN AND USE THE SAME PAN IF YOU LIKE.) 5、ADD GREEN ONIONS AND HOT PEPPERS AND STIR FRY ABOUT 30 SECONDS. 6、STIR (OR SHAKE JAR) SAUCE MIXTURE, AND THEN ADD TO PAN WITH ONIONS AND PEPPERS, COOK UNTIL THICK. SOME REVIEWS DIDN'T KNIW WHAT "THICK" MEANT. THICK LIKE THE SAME SAUCE YOU GET AT A RESTAURANT.YOU WANT IT TO JUST COAT THE CHICKEN. IF IT GETS TOO THICK, ADD A LITTLE WATER OR OTHER LIQUID. THE THICKNESS OF THE SAUCE SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU GET WHEN ORDERING THIS AT A RESTAURANT. 7、ADD CHICKEN TO SAUCE IN WOK AND HEAT JUST UNTIL THE CHICKEN IS HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU. IT MAY NOT EVEN NEED A MINUTE IF YOU KEPT THE CHICKEN WARM. THE QUICKER YOU SERVE IT THE CRISPIER THE CHICKEN STAYS. 8、DON'T BE SCARED BY ANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS. IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE THOUGH IF YOU HAVE NEVER COOKED WITH A CORNSTARCH SLURRY IT MAY FEEL LIKE AN EXPERIMENT. TRUST YOURSELF! YOU'VE GOT THIS! IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS REREAD THE RECIPE AND GET EVERYTHING IN ORDER BEFORE YOU START TO COOK. I PROMISE YOU WILL THANK YOURSELF AND MAYBE EVEN ME! ENJOY! 9、OH IT'S GREAT SERVED OVER RICE!

IF YOU PREFER A SOFTER CRUST (LIKE A TRADITIONAL BREAD) MIX THE BUTTER INTO THE BATTER INSTEAD OF POURING IT OVER THE TOP. 7、SIFTING FLOUR FOR BREAD RECIPES IS A MUST-DO. MOST PEOPLE JUST SCOOP THE 1 CUP MEASURE IN THE FLOUR CANISTER AND LEVEL IT OFF. THAT COMPACTS THE FLOUR AND WILL TURN YOUR BREAD INTO A "HARD BISCUIT" AS SOME HAVE DESCRIBED. THAT'S BECAUSE THEY AREN'T SIFTING THEIR FLOUR! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SIFTER, USE A SPOON TO SPOON THE FLOUR INTO THE 1 CUP MEASURE. TRY IT ONCE THE "CORRECT" WAY AND YOU WILL SEE AN AMAZING DIFFERENCE IN THE END PRODUCT. 8、I HAVE HAD MANY EMAIL FROM YOU KIND FOLKS ABOUT USING NON-ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES INSTEAD OF BEER. THAT IS FINE TO DO BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ADDING A PACKET OF DRY ACTIVE YEAST OR 2 TEASPOONS OF BREAD (MACHINE) YEAST SO THAT YOU GET A PROPER RISE. 9、THE FINAL RESULT SHOULD BE A THICK, HEARTY AND VERY TASTEFUL BREAD, NOT A BRICK! ;). 10、THANK YOU ALL FOR THE INCREDIBLY NICE COMMENTS AND THOSE OF YOU WHO LEFT A BAD REVIEW - LEARN TO SIFT SIFT SIFT! YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT THE RESULTS YOU GET.

IT SHOULD BE VERY WET. 7、TURN THE DOUGH OUT ONTO A FLOURED BOARD. 8、GENTLY, GENTLY PAT (DO NOT ROLL WITH A ROLLING PIN) THE DOUGH OUT UNTIL IT'S ABOUT 1/2" THICK. FOLD THE DOUGH ABOUT 5 TIMES, GENTLY PRESS THE DOUGH DOWN TO A 1 INCH THICK. 9、USE A ROUND CUTTER TO CUT INTO ROUNDS. 10、YOU CAN GENTLY KNEAD THE SCRAPS TOGETHER AND MAKE A FEW MORE, BUT THEY WILL NOT BE ANYWHERE NEAR AS GOOD AS THE FIRST ONES. 11、PLACE THE BISCUITS ON A COOKIE SHEET- IF YOU LIKE SOFT SIDES, PUT THEM TOUCHING EACH OTHER. 12、IF YOU LIKE"CRUSTY" SIDES, PUT THEM ABOUT 1 INCH APART- THESE WILL NOT RISE AS HIGH AS THE BISCUITS PUT CLOSE TOGETHER. 13、BAKE FOR ABOUT 10-12 MINUTES- THE BISCUITS WILL BE A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT GOLDEN BROWN ON TOP AND BOTTOM. 14、DO NOT OVERBAKE. 15、NOTE: THE KEY TO REAL BISCUITS IS NOT IN THE INGREDIENTS, BUT IN THE HANDLING OF THE DOUGH. 16、THE DOUGH MUST BE HANDLED AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE OR YOU WILL HAVE TOUGH BISCUITS. 17、I HAVE FOUND THAT A FOOD PROCESSOR PRODUCES SUPERIOR BISCUITS, BECAUSE THE INGREDIENTS STAY COLDER AND THERE'S LESS CHANCE OF OVERMIXING. 18、YOU ALSO MUST PAT THE DOUGH OUT WITH YOUR HANDS, LIGHTLY. 19、ROLLING WITH A ROLLING PIN IS A GUARANTEED WAY TO OVERSTIMULATE THE GLUTEN, RESULTING IN A TOUGHER BISCUIT. 20、NOTE 2: YOU CAN MAKE THESE BISCUITS, CUT THEM, PUT THEM ON COOKIE SHEETS AND FREEZE THEM FOR UP TO A MONTH. 21、WHEN YOU WANT FRESH BISCUITS, SIMPLY PLACE THEM FROZEN ON THE COOKIE SHEET AND BAKE AT 450°F FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES.

ADD ALL THE CHICKEN PIECES AND STIR TO COAT. USING A FORK REMOVE ONE CHICKEN PIECE AT A TIME AND LET THE EXCESS MIXTURE DRIP OFF. YES EVEN THOUGH THE MIXTURE HAS A WEIRD CONSISTENCY IT WILL NOT STICK LIKE PASTE AND THE EXCESS WILL DRIP OFF. ADD CHICKEN TO THE HOT (350 DEGREE) OIL AND FRY UNTIL CRISPY. ONLY COOK 7 OR 8 CHICKEN PIECES AT A TIME. YOU DO NOT WANT TO LOWER THE TEMP OF THE OIL BY COOKING TOO MANY AT A TIME. YOU CAN USE A SIMPLE COOKING OR CANDY THERMOMETER TO JUDGE THE TEMP OF THE OIL. 3、DRAIN ON PAPER TOWELS. WANT THEM EXTRA CRISPY? PUT THEM ON A RACK OVER A SHEET PAN. KEEP WARM- I JUST PUT THEM IN THE OVEN WITH THE OVEN OFF. REPEATING UNTIL ALL CHICKEN IS FRIED. 4、IN A SEPARATE WOK OR LARGE SKILLET ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL AND HEAT TO 400 DEGREES. AGAIN, A CANDY THERMOMETER WORKS GREAT. (WANT LESS DISHES? YOU CAN JUST DRAIN THE OIL AFTER YOU FRY ALL THE CHICKEN, LEAVE A SMALL AMOUNT (ABOUT A TSP) IN THE PAN AND USE THE SAME PAN IF YOU LIKE.) 5、ADD GREEN ONIONS AND HOT PEPPERS AND STIR FRY ABOUT 30 SECONDS. 6、STIR (OR SHAKE JAR) SAUCE MIXTURE, AND THEN ADD TO PAN WITH ONIONS AND PEPPERS, COOK UNTIL THICK. SOME REVIEWS DIDN'T KNIW WHAT "THICK" MEANT. THICK LIKE THE SAME SAUCE YOU GET AT A RESTAURANT.YOU WANT IT TO JUST COAT THE CHICKEN. IF IT GETS TOO THICK, ADD A LITTLE WATER OR OTHER LIQUID. THE THICKNESS OF THE SAUCE SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU GET WHEN ORDERING THIS AT A RESTAURANT. 7、ADD CHICKEN TO SAUCE IN WOK AND HEAT JUST UNTIL THE CHICKEN IS HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU. IT MAY NOT EVEN NEED A MINUTE IF YOU KEPT THE CHICKEN WARM. THE QUICKER YOU SERVE IT THE CRISPIER THE CHICKEN STAYS. 8、DON'T BE SCARED BY ANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS. IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE THOUGH IF YOU HAVE NEVER COOKED WITH A CORNSTARCH SLURRY IT MAY FEEL LIKE AN EXPERIMENT. TRUST YOURSELF! YOU'VE GOT THIS! IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS REREAD THE RECIPE AND GET EVERYTHING IN ORDER BEFORE YOU START TO COOK. I PROMISE YOU WILL THANK YOURSELF AND MAYBE EVEN ME! ENJOY! 9、OH IT'S GREAT SERVED OVER RICE!

IF YOU PREFER A SOFTER CRUST (LIKE A TRADITIONAL BREAD) MIX THE BUTTER INTO THE BATTER INSTEAD OF POURING IT OVER THE TOP. 7、SIFTING FLOUR FOR BREAD RECIPES IS A MUST-DO. MOST PEOPLE JUST SCOOP THE 1 CUP MEASURE IN THE FLOUR CANISTER AND LEVEL IT OFF. THAT COMPACTS THE FLOUR AND WILL TURN YOUR BREAD INTO A "HARD BISCUIT" AS SOME HAVE DESCRIBED. THAT'S BECAUSE THEY AREN'T SIFTING THEIR FLOUR! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SIFTER, USE A SPOON TO SPOON THE FLOUR INTO THE 1 CUP MEASURE. TRY IT ONCE THE "CORRECT" WAY AND YOU WILL SEE AN AMAZING DIFFERENCE IN THE END PRODUCT. 8、I HAVE HAD MANY EMAIL FROM YOU KIND FOLKS ABOUT USING NON-ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES INSTEAD OF BEER. THAT IS FINE TO DO BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ADDING A PACKET OF DRY ACTIVE YEAST OR 2 TEASPOONS OF BREAD (MACHINE) YEAST SO THAT YOU GET A PROPER RISE. 9、THE FINAL RESULT SHOULD BE A THICK, HEARTY AND VERY TASTEFUL BREAD, NOT A BRICK! ;). 10、THANK YOU ALL FOR THE INCREDIBLY NICE COMMENTS AND THOSE OF YOU WHO LEFT A BAD REVIEW - LEARN TO SIFT SIFT SIFT! YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT THE RESULTS YOU GET.

IT SHOULD BE VERY WET. 7、TURN THE DOUGH OUT ONTO A FLOURED BOARD. 8、GENTLY, GENTLY PAT (DO NOT ROLL WITH A ROLLING PIN) THE DOUGH OUT UNTIL IT'S ABOUT 1/2" THICK. FOLD THE DOUGH ABOUT 5 TIMES, GENTLY PRESS THE DOUGH DOWN TO A 1 INCH THICK. 9、USE A ROUND CUTTER TO CUT INTO ROUNDS. 10、YOU CAN GENTLY KNEAD THE SCRAPS TOGETHER AND MAKE A FEW MORE, BUT THEY WILL NOT BE ANYWHERE NEAR AS GOOD AS THE FIRST ONES. 11、PLACE THE BISCUITS ON A COOKIE SHEET- IF YOU LIKE SOFT SIDES, PUT THEM TOUCHING EACH OTHER. 12、IF YOU LIKE"CRUSTY" SIDES, PUT THEM ABOUT 1 INCH APART- THESE WILL NOT RISE AS HIGH AS THE BISCUITS PUT CLOSE TOGETHER. 13、BAKE FOR ABOUT 10-12 MINUTES- THE BISCUITS WILL BE A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT GOLDEN BROWN ON TOP AND BOTTOM. 14、DO NOT OVERBAKE. 15、NOTE: THE KEY TO REAL BISCUITS IS NOT IN THE INGREDIENTS, BUT IN THE HANDLING OF THE DOUGH. 16、THE DOUGH MUST BE HANDLED AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE OR YOU WILL HAVE TOUGH BISCUITS. 17、I HAVE FOUND THAT A FOOD PROCESSOR PRODUCES SUPERIOR BISCUITS, BECAUSE THE INGREDIENTS STAY COLDER AND THERE'S LESS CHANCE OF OVERMIXING. 18、YOU ALSO MUST PAT THE DOUGH OUT WITH YOUR HANDS, LIGHTLY. 19、ROLLING WITH A ROLLING PIN IS A GUARANTEED WAY TO OVERSTIMULATE THE GLUTEN, RESULTING IN A TOUGHER BISCUIT. 20、NOTE 2: YOU CAN MAKE THESE BISCUITS, CUT THEM, PUT THEM ON COOKIE SHEETS AND FREEZE THEM FOR UP TO A MONTH. 21、WHEN YOU WANT FRESH BISCUITS, SIMPLY PLACE THEM FROZEN ON THE COOKIE SHEET AND BAKE AT 450°F FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES.
