DON’T put baking soda in beef marinade - The RIGHT way to tenderize beef with baking soda

No need to use baking soda for chicken breast. Here’s how to make chicken tender and juicy. It’s easy! 😊 https://youtu.be/M1pXvzRZcT0

Another ingredient chefs also use is egg white. I once had a girlfriend who was half-Chinese. Her dad was from Shanghai, and would always marinate in a mix of Egg white, Shaoxing wine, white pepper, a pinch of MSG and potato starch. He would shallow fry the meat for about a minute in medium hot oil. This technique is called velveting, or pass through oil technique. Chinese chefs use this technique to achieve a soft velvety texture, and give proteins a glossy look. The egg white and starch will create a protective layer outside of the meat so the juices won't run out.

Hi Elias......One further thing you can do to completely remove any baking soda residue is to add a small amount of Vinegar to your final rinse and this will neutralize any left over from the process...

For those of us outside the US, 8 ounces = roughly 225g.

It is the Alum (Aluminum) that gives the metallic aftertaste. Aluminum Free Baking Soda is available from Red Mill and others. Love your videos!

Invaluable advice. Thank you.

This is great informtion! Thank you. My only addition is to let people know to cut the beef ACROSS the grain for maximum tenderness. Thanks again.

Awesome ! Your technique works well! Thanks!

Thanks for showing us this. Yes, we are buying cheaper cuts of meat -- even if they are tougher, because the more expensive ones are softer. So, this trick will help us save money.
