Answer 2

If you're talking about dishes like Salt n Pepper shrimp or ribs, it's not too tough. Mix 1T Salt and 1 T white pepper with an egg white and 1tsp flour. Throw in your shrimp to coat it. Fry in a wok at really high temp til slightly golden (You can only fry 6-8 at a time) Serve immediately!!! I haven't tried the short ribs this way but the cooking time would be longer.

Answer 4

You mean using this in cooking chinese dishes? You can usually use this in frying fishes, beef & vegetable dishes. Pepper will enhance the aroma & taste of the vegetables while salt will add flavor.

Answer 5

If you mean how can you cook like the Chinese takaway, you tell me! Indian I can do tolerably well, but whatever the recipe books say this defeats me. Even MSG doesn't work.
