How to make Sesame chicken

[Bokuza]

So what makes this different from General Tso's Chicken? It seems that the same ingredients were used in both sauces, but I've known Tso's to have more spice to it. What do you add to give it that kick?

[GuyJon57]

You are the BEST! :-)

[MrLaparwah]

its amazing how he make all of his food in under 10 minutes :)

[morntis]

I cooked this ... I doubled the portion and at the end my chicken seemed very soggy what do you think I did wrong... PM me for more detail if you want to help me out.

[GetLikeLacey]

@morntis if you want the chicken to be crispy you should fry it twice c: that's what i do anyway.

[SuperWalkthroughGuru]

Do we just let the batter sit out? Or put it in the fridge.

[sqiao12345]

@SuperWalkthroughGuru I've made this, you let it sit out! :)

[droper1004]

Clod Water LOL

[KingMeesterheid]

why u smash that flat piece of ginger? ._.

[ezio0501]

wtf mate, where do you live so i can come get some dinner tomorrow night?!

[bertini18]

i wish you were my chef

[jb4966]

i lol every time i see '1 cup clod water'.

[pikagod]

This has to be one of the best looking recipes I've seen! I tried one a while ago (I think it was supposed to be gourmet sesame chicken? I dunno but it sucked) that called for two CUPS of sugar for the sauce, and there was no batter. Was terrible. This looks and tastes amazing :)

[HsushiKing]

watch?v=U724_Wnxxio Sesame Chicken! Great video by the way. You don't have to watch my video. Its stupid anyways. Nothing to do with food.

[WrekDupNwasted]

mhm yumyum

[sempreviva82]

sorry, what did he say between 0:36 and 1:09

[shanners000]

Sir, you just made me the happiest person in the world. I'm so happy I'll be able to make this at home! :D

[DustinAndNatasha]

Looks so good. I am trying this next. I made apple bees orange chicken and then made it again the next day. It tasted identical to it.

[chunli1990]

I don't know why, but that chicken that fell on the table at 3:13 made me laugh so hard.

[lazy2five]

i got the same bowl like u at 0:29

[asonge4642]

@lazy2five haha same here

[DustinAndNatasha]

Listen to the background. It's like Dimebag playing guitar. Badass music for a badass chef!

[STAMARIADELVALLE]

Im hungry now... thanks to the cheff....



[mac7727]

Heh, I work at Kroger.

[hectorwholesale]

I bet you are speaking 'Chinese Direct Translate' English ...... You just convert your chinese into English .... for example, stir up, ok. Wait till it 'bubble' ... funny.

[pinkpastelhearts]

u did a great job this is another one of my favorite dishes. :D

[sqiao12345]

Ha kroger we in texas have that super mart he might like in texas! :|

[stndrds79]

i like ur cookin. im really picky with chinese but these are good

[ZonGonZ1495]

Remember guys,i cup of clod water! @0:38

[RATTnROLL001]

@ZonGonZ1495 No! its clod water :)

[3232mikeymike]

where can i pick up clod water...? lol

[BZCOMEDY]

I am making this tonight for the family have the batter resting now it looks thicker then yours.... this should be intersting.

[tph2010]

What was the difference between this and the General Tso's chicken?

[iSamm786]

@tph2010 this recipe doesnt use sugar, and u use alot more of chicken broth

[krisanne9]

i love chinese food! :)



[delici0usGurl]

Hi!! what is hoison sauce? love all your recipes!! ;)

[MrGurudude5]

listen i need to make a comment about your fried rice almost all the regular dishes are great i make them all the time, but come on we need to get some better flavor in your fried rice. tooooo plain!

[cruzijavibby]

Can I add honey to the sauce to make it sweeter?

[bat830]

wow you have the best recipes ever!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you:)

[nkomoism]

@Cheezitz37 Um yes he did, theres lots of asian markets that are just.. asian food ^.^. Don't know why its so funny though o-o

[FuckingMudaFucker]

where do i get clod water from? i only have the cold variety

[Ears14U]

@FuckingMudaFucker Man takes the time to teach all of us great chinese recipes, and people exactly like you want to make fun of his english. At least he speaks english, and not some beaner from mexico that cannot, or will not learn to. Sssshhhh.....

[FuckingMudaFucker]

@Ears14U lol i take the piss out of a gramatical error and you use a derogitory racist term like beaner? have you ever heard of the expression the pot calling the kettle black ears? and who are these people exactly like me? i would like to meet them. surely they cant be mexican lol 

[Ears14U]

@FuckingMudaFucker I thought you told me that you WERE a "beaner"? What gives? HA! I thought you would like that! heh heh.....Have you even tried cooking his recipes at all? I actually tried this one last night. Of course, with all of my "beaner" friends....You never came to dinner, my beaner buddie! HA! It was quite good to tell you the truth!

[GunLoc]

name of the track that plays in the background please?

[chocomarvin1]

you rock im your new fan

[hotyu3456]

let make sesame chicken!

[LiLReEpErSnIpEr]

Cooked this tonight....the batter/plain chicken is perfect and just like a chinese resturant. As for the sauce, it was terrible. I think you HAVE to have asian market brand spices etc for this, because the hoisin basically ruined the entire sauce I think. Do yourself a favor and go the extra mile to get the right ASIAN ingredients, dont buy the stuff from your local grocery store.(Dynasty brand Hoisin & sesame sauce = bad)

[kawaiikowai08]

Looks sooo yummy!

[kool001ify]

i'm gunna use clod water instead of cold water

[amrcngrl1203]

Was that Red Wine Vinegar?

[mattr999]

I made this tonight for my wife. I modified the recipe to use powdered ginger in the sauce and fresh garlic in place of the fresh ginger. My wife my blown away, she thought it was take out except for the fact that it was too late for the local Chinese place to be open. This is a great recipe.

[Akiko601]

I'm sorry but when he says clod water is clod soppose to be cold ._.? Im gonna try this tonight Dx

[XxJJx47xX]

Love this guy!!!

[azomila9]

burrokori? do u mean broccali?

[ronanwicca]

what's clod water?

[VPardoel]

love the guitar background music 

[kirua21219goshin]

lol Really why commenting on his accent!? He try his best and hes actually pretty good. Try speaking another language, let's see if you would like people making fun of you?

[jaanubaby0106]

@kirua21219goshin Love this comment

[jamielrichardson]

Thank you for putting the ingredients up before you add them together it helps with a shopping list! I can't wait to try this it looks so good!

[x3clipse1]

Kai how come you don't have an app for IPhone/IPod Touch!!!! :D it would be to grateful if you could make one

[MattandHaileigh]

this recipe was awesome! thanks for posting it!

[lsuguy1883]

Favorite line: "deep fWy untiwl Gowden Bwown." (Deep fry until golden brown..)

[EricPulgarin]

did you say drain the ass oil? o.o

[Kekermonger]

This looks great! can't wait to try it.

[fudogchomp]

Just got back from the store, after buying all these ingredients EXCEPT that i forgot the hoisor sauce :( what else can i use in place of hoisor sauce?? :?

[bobrosen1916]

@fudogchomp , there's no substitute for it, since it's a complex melange of flavors.

[manfocused]

Is sesame chicken supposed to be made with ketchup? I swear, I've seen youtube videos of ppl making sesame chicken with ketchup (for the sauce).

[hazelioness]

thank-you thank-you thank-you!!!!

I love sesame chicken, and so does my sister, now I can make it for her!

and myself, of course :P

[aznkidkevin7]

Me love yummy chicken. It very good for you!

[bigmitchsa]

This is going to be great to eat

[reignangel08]

omgsh ur accent is sooooooooo cute <3 n_n

[whitemikeproductions]

You got so ever confused when you said "clod water'', but what you were trying to say is COLD water .

[Polytix]

What we want to do is to cut this one into bite-size okay? And: you want to cut about one ginger. My favorite lines ♥

[ruptip]

@Polytix dumb redneck

[vlolify]

can i get clod water at my grocery store?

[asthevinylturns]

what type of vinegar did you use?

[TheVerticalMischief]

this dude is awesome at cooking

[yankee82090]

All Purpose FlourSSSSSSSSSSSS. Dude that's awesome I like Chinese food so I subscribed :)

[toskevhlub]

I like it when you wrote down the measurment of the ingredients.

[lyttleb]

The sauce in this is nothing like the sweet sesame sauce you get in most restaurants. Use a different sauce. The batter in this one is great, just make sure you don't overload the fryer with too many pieces at a time.

[omgoprah]

this looks so good i want this but i cant find hoisin sauce. i think they have some in the asian section in walmart?

[Ammo1174]

this looks delicious

[funniiie]

i swear you were speaking chinese

[crowspears]

Whats better, this or General Tso's Chicken?

[passiveMenis]

@crowspears

It's the same shit.

[ferretace]

@passiveMenis Doesn't General Tso's Chicken tend to be hotter though?

[passiveMenis]

@ferretace

I've ordered both and they seemed the same, except for one has sesame seeds. Chances are if you're ordering from a regular chinese takeout restaurant, you won't notice much of a difference.

[Skullchaser08]

Only one way to find out.

[yaqunsun]

Its same oil.

[NewEraRS]

May I Ask:

The corn starch is used to thicken the sauce once it starts cooking in the pan? Am I right?

[Lpedraja2002]

Can anyone tell me if Toasted Sesame Seed oil is the same as Sesame Seed oil? I'm thinking not, but what are the differences flavor wise?

[human596]

@Lpedraja2002 no, with toasted oil, sesame seeds (white or golden) are put thru a toasting process to get color and the nut like flavor.

[SIDCRAZYNESS]

Enjoy his technique...

Top stuff Kai!

Nice metal background music.

Hey,try making some shrimpy dish one of these days...

Keep it up...You inspired me in buying a wok,woden spoon,oyster sauce and sesame seed oil...

I follow your dishes,add some stuff,take some out and it always comes out superb...

Thanks man...nice new opening for the vids!

Cheers from Brazil...

[Puccahuntas7290]

Flours and clod? Heheheee! He sound cute when he said Cornstarch. I do, too like Dark Colors. c(-: Awwww, Asians sound so cute when they speak English. ♥ Heheheee! :3

[DJXRyde]

ok, I just made this - was a bit leery of the batter. I've tried so many basic flower types, tempura from various boxes. This stuff turned out JUST like take-out style. Flipping awesome.

The Sesame sauce...better than I've had from any restaurant. Unbelieveable. (But then again, I'm not in an area known for epic Asian food...regardless, it was way better).

If your questioning. I suggest: Make this. Make it now... xD

Next on my list is his General Tso recipe.

[cre8tivesolutions]

Kai, another great tasting recipe, we all loved it, made this last night for dinner. One question, how do you keep the chicken from getting soggy, we like it a little more on the firmer side. By the way the batter makes an OUtSTANDING frying batter. ninanee2008; I've tried several of Kai's recipes and they all came out great!!! Kung Poa Chicken, Beef Lo Mein, and of course this one.

[socratesthecabdriver]

GUESS WHAT !!! I AM COOKING THE SAME LUNCH AGAIN HAHAHAAAAAAAAAA

[ninanee2008]

@socratesthecabdriver have you tried more of his recipes? if so, which ones?

[ninanee2008]

I made this tonight and it was very authentic dish but lacked flavor. I'm not sure if it's because my brand of hoisin sace or lack of salt. I used a half tbsp of hoisin for extra gravy.  It lacked flavor in comparison to Asiancookingmadeeasy's recipe. I did like that Itkman had the chicken batter all in one bowl rather than separated which makes it more easier and cleaner. Easy to follow recipe. 3/5 STARS ***

[socratesthecabdriver]

@ninanee2008 add some garlic maybe 2-3 scales and a bit of oyster sause hehehe pow wow

[Diispaceyone]

I have to have Chinese food tomorrow

[socratesthecabdriver]

I AM COOKING THE STUF TODAY !!!!!!!!! I LIKE A LITLE BIT LES HOISING SAUCE .. I FOUND SESAME OIL IN GREECE THATS FROM CHINA I CANT READ WHAT THE LABLE IS BUT IT SMELLS ROASTED MMMMMMMMMM GOOOD STUF!!!! THE REGULAR SESAME OIL ISNT ROASTED DARK AS ITKMAN SHOWS AND GIVES LES FLAVOR TO THE FOOD .... ITKMAN YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stewiegriffin65]

[mariaumnik]

Thank you so much Mr. Kai! Although I m in college and have super busy life, I am gonna make sure to cook food based on your tutorials at least 3 times a week! Thank you very much and God Bless you and your family! :)

[makatanoshiba09]

love the music in the background. love your videos!

[Fwjchim]

@girlegrl54 If you want to try sweet, then try making sweet and sour chicken.

[no100yang]

THATS THE SAME CHOP STICK I HAVE!!! :O!!! OMG !!!

[irbenson]

i always thought sesame chicken = general tso's + sesame seeds. guess i was wrong haha

[no100yang]

@irbenson it is... but in some places Sesame chicken is not spicy and GT chicken is... that makes the difference... Sesame chicken is more sweeter... but some places, its like what u always thought which is gt chicken + sesame seeds

[markdipaolo]

Hey!!! Where is KAI???? Where are you????

[lq4fcrx7]

Where do I get CLOD water?

[Ragitsu]

@lq4fcrx7

CLOD?

[Puccahuntas7290]

@Ragitsu, Heheheee! Oopsie he got a poopsie! lol

[girlegrl54]

I made this last night and its not like the sesame chicken I order at chinese restaurants...the one im looking for is sweet, this was not sweet at all! i've tried itkmans other recipes like beef and broccoli and the shrimp fried rice and those were amaaaaaazing!!!!! I just didn't like the sesame chicken recipe!

[irbenson]

@girlegrl54 well the recipe suggests dark soy, hoisin, sesame oil, and chicken broth. that means sodium, aka salty. it also suggests sugar, aka sweet. try adding more sugar and less salty stuff. maybe even try some honey...trial and error and modify your recipe :P im deep frying the sesame chicken right now xD

[captainluke100]

well i just got done making this and it was horrible!!!!!! dont waste your time with this one

[1dontlook2]

@captainluke100 wat was wrong with the one u made?

[SykoFerret]

I won't have any call to use ginger on a regular basis, so can i freeze the unused? Will it still taste good the next time i need to use it?

[caramelchick4u28052]

mmm...my favorite chinese dish...thanks Kai...

[MrsZefron778]
