So, I had my dad try Panda Express the first time. What did you think? I wasn't so happy about it.

I am going to show you the classic and the secret how they do it in Chinese restaurant. Now, I'm cutting them in cubes. Eggs, sesame oil, Chinese wine, custard powder, water. You see the color of that? It right away turn into a yellow. A little bit MSG, pinch of sugar. They don't use MSG. They, they in Chinese cooking. That's not Chinese food.

We marinated in 25 minutes. Cane sugar, little water. And now the sugar is sort of like turn into kind of thick vinegar. Try not to be fancy. Don't use like balsamic. Don't use any kind of cherry vinegar. Red and green pepper. Chopped ginger. Have some chopped onions. Some oil goes down. Onion, pepper, ginger. Water. Hall flakes. This is actually Chinese candies. Paw flakes. Looks like hot dogs. Yeah, it kind of looks like that. Add chicken stock. Half an hour very slow cooky batter, flour. Add cornstarch, wheat starch, baking powder, gluten rice flour. Now I'm stirring some water. Keep the batter nice and fluffy. Not only just one batter, there's another batter is going to be adding in here.

So what do you say to the people that don't like sweet and sour chicken? S Y B Au. What does that mean? Show. Is it? I'm straining this sauce into the sugar and vinegar. You stir, stir, stir. Tomato ketchup. I take the chicken out of the marinade. My two batter that I made earlier in here. Some of that in there. Mix it very well. Quickly toss this in. So they're completely coated. Now I'm going to drop every single piece in. So I'm going to do a double fry after. Now I'm doing the second frying. Now double fry is done. Pepper, onions run through hot oil. This is a very classical Chinese cooking. We're going into the finished product. Pineapple, the chicken goes down sauce. Quick stir. Sesame oil. Sesame seed on it. Yeah. Look at that. Looks good. Very good. My sweet and sour chicken. I have to give myself this 95%. 5%. What do you mean 5%? Like you give 95, I give five. Oh, and then that adds up is 100. No, like mine's just 5%. So that's Come on. You can't give me 5%.
