    Notes:
    1) To address some of the comments on the color - we cooked the chicken twice!! The chicken in the thumbnail is our second attempt, in which we achieved a more thorough color on the skin. We spend quite a bit of time in the video explaining and comparing our first attempt with our second.
    2) There is supposed to be red in the bones when you cut into it - that’s one of the cues that it’s in the sweet spot of doneness.

      All of these recipes are authentic and worth the time and effort to make at home. I grew up working at a Chinese (Hunan, Szh, Cantonese) restaurant and they are all true and wonderful meals. No, I'm not a shill. I lived and worked eating all of these meals for many years. And have to pictures to prove it! I'm still working on my own recipe of Momma Wong's wonton noodle (yes, noodle not noodles) soup.

    Great recipe but one tip from my dad is to make sure that the chicken is DRY before you put it in the soy sauce. Pat it dry with a paper towel / let it air dry for a while before it goes in. That way you get an even dark coloring all around your chicken instead of blotchy colouring.

    @MadeWithLau For the end result, the skin of the chicken looks patchy and not too dark, also looks like it's slathered in sauce. Versus the smaller one, the skin is very dark and golden in colour, and uniform - what difference in cooking did you do to achieve the smaller chicken's look?

    Tip: If you dont have sugar cane you can melt some white sugar in a pan on low medium heat to melt and caramelise, stir regularly and you start to see it melt. Once you dont see and sugar crystals then you’re done. You can pour it on a baking tray to cool. Once its cool crack it into pieces, save some for another time too.

    • @maggiejetson7904
      @maggiejetson7904 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The rock sugar they use is actually not a caramelized sugar, it is a less refined but still semi-refined sugar. Raw > brown > rock / yellow > white in that order. So, just substitute with a bit of brown and a bit of white if you have to. Won't taste identical but it is mainly the glazing effect rather than the taste that gets impacted.

    It's been quite some time since I last had this dish. I do remember my dad stressing that when turning it over half way through cooking, it's important to lift the chicken out of the sauce to drain and resubmerge. His theory was that the sauce that was in the cavity is at a lower temperature, so by draining it, mixes an reheats it evenly so the sauce would cook the chicken more evenly when resubmerged

    • @vivaldi_is_dreaming

      Meats will sometimes have a pink tone near the bone even when OVER cooked, esp near where veins etc were. As long as a meat thermometer registers 165F on the deepest part of meat, it's fine! (The clear juice is technically correct in my experience, but if you're worried about it, just test with a therm.)

    I find that using chicken purchased from American grocery store have different results vs chicken purchased from a poultry store or the more expensive free range natural chicken that are leaner. IMO, the fatter chicken are more plump and may contain saline solution and has a different taste. The leaner chicken tend to also take on better color from the sauce as indicated from the first head-on chicken in the video with the caramelized skin.
