When it comes to Sichuan cuisine, one's first impression is spicy. Sichuan cuisine is not equal to spicy, but Sichuan cuisine is inseparable from spicy. If Sichuan cuisine does not have spicy, it will also lose the most characteristic and flavorful flavor of Sichuan cuisine. The same pepper can be played with different tricks in the hands of Sichuan and Chongqing people. To enjoy Sichuan cuisine is to enjoy the taste of Sichuan cuisine, to play with peppers, to play is to study, and to play is to taste.

When talking about Sichuan cuisine with friends from other places, Gongbao chicken is always blurted out. You can't stop drooling between words. You must try the authentic Gongbao chicken. Whether in high-end restaurants or street restaurants, you can always find it. It can be tall and grounded.

It was the first time I ate Kung Pao Chicken, but I didn't know whether it was authentic or not. It was delicious anyway. Later, I heard food experts say that the taste of real Kung Pao chicken should not be sour and sweet, but salty and umami. The mouth is slightly sweet and slightly sour, with a little spicy flavor. This kind of Kung Pao chicken is called Authentic.

How can I make an authentic plate of Kung Pao Chicken at home? It's better to serve it directly instead of selling it.

Kung Pao Chicken

1. Prepare raw materials in advance

Talking: Many friends choose to use chicken breast when making Gongbao chicken. Personally, I recommend using chicken thighs from young roosters. Live meat has a tenderer and more delicious taste than chicken breasts.
