  • leaving slice of kiwi fruit or just marinating the whole meat in kiwi juice works really well for tenderizing the meat (especially beef). Kiwi has the same enzyme as pineapples that eat away at the protein structure making the meat literally fall apart in your mouth and kiwi has less dominant flavor than that of pineapples. But if you really enjoy the flavor of pineapple, go ahead an use it.

  • Baking soda is the best for getting a soft piece of meat but it absolutely changes the taste and texture. It leaves the meat mostly tasteless so you only taste the sauce, and the texture is definitely soft but has a bit of a rounded and smooth surface. I prefer using corn starch instead. Not as strong of a tenderizer as baking soda, and requires more time to tenderize (overnight for corn starch vs 1-2 hours for baking soda), but it leaves most of the flavour in the meat and is still more tender than non-velveted meat.

  • If the sauce tastes wierd but you still want it tender: 1. Marinate the meat with cornstarch and baking soda overnight or 24 hours. 2. Rince it out with cold water 3 to 4x. (Until the white liquid is completely removed) 3. Cook it 4. Then add your sauce The meat will still be tender because the "process" of tenderizing is already done. The sauce on the meat will not taste alkaline or wierd anymore.

Growing up as a child everytime I ate Chinese styled beef I always thought that the flavour of the dish was primarily from seasoning and not from the tenderizer. It's way better tasting without the baking soda. If you're trying the dish use tenderloin or other premium cuts you know will be soft that way you don't need to tenderize or wash

  • Baking soda alone will produce this effect even if the cut is wrong, and it is especially good with ground beef. 1/4 tsp to one pound and let it set for 10 min after mixing. The baking soda reacts on a cellular level. I use this with chicken also. The key is to give the baking soda time to penetrate and react. With elephant and snow owl, you have to give it more time.

This small shop had a huge pot boiling and the guy took a set of tongs and pulled out a skinned and boiling snake about a meter long. I asked what kind of snake and he said; " no snake. Tiger penis." He then said, You try. I said thank you but the world would have to be all out of chicken. What makes one wake up one day and say you know what would be good right now: tiger penis. Just, wow.

  • Adding baking soda changes the pH level of the meat, making it more alkaline 🔬. This change in pH helps break down the proteins, resulting in more tender meat. An added advantage is that the pre-broken down proteins will not tense us as much as usually, and therefore not pushing out as much water. So the end result will also be juicier meat. You can even use this trick with minced meat. Don't use too much baking soda or it will give the meat a mushy consistency and change its flavor!

The secret really is to marinade the meat overnight and put cornflour.the cornflour seal the meat and the liquid doenst come out and it will not boil the meat,thus not making the meat rubbery.

      @SrJonAnthony@SrJonAnthony4 ай бұрын

    • @SrJonAnthony because, that's what happens, it's a process (boiling) the water OUT of the meat, at very high temperatures. It happens on a micro level, the water in the meat escapes, and is immediately steamed in oil, thereby boiling your meat - same thing happens if , you don't let you meat come up to room temperature (chicken, beef etc ) the trapped cold moisture, boils off your meat - like fir example making Chicken Balls, IF you dont let it come to room temp, and Don't put cornflour on your meat before dipping into your batter, the trapped moisture escapes, making your chicken balls soggy.
