woks in restaurants are insanely hot....much hotter than home stoves can get.

They have tubs of ingredients much like Subway and just add scoops of what is needed for the dish. Then they toss in the sauce. It's all very assembly-line like.

I guess it's no different than Hu-Hot if you've ever been to one of them.

I found this picture and it just makes me said. I wish they wouldn't do this to dogs.

If the wok is the right temp it will take about 2 minutes for everything else.

I can't get mine that hot at home but it takes me about 4-5 min total w/chicken being pre-cooked

I never had dumplings until I went to NY this spring. My God they are glorious, either steamed or fried.

I'm pretty sure if I had meat sliced that thin, a quality wok and commercial BTU's I could do that. They only use a few sauces and add spice per the dish. The rice is pre-made, vegetables prepped. I imagine the broccoli and maybe a few other veggies are blanched earlier before hitting the stir fry.

Plus, they're cooked by Asian dudes. Have you ever seen them play ping pong?

I don't thin k the chicken is pre-cooked, angelo. As thin as it's sliced there would be no need.

For example, I have tried at least 4 or 5 of their spicy chicken dishes each with its own unique combo of veggies and unique sauce. The chicken is even cut in different shapes for some of the meals.

Tonight's entree has:

chicken - cooked and hot all the way through - not rubbery
green pepper, - still crunchy
bamboo shoots - still crunchy (maybe too many, kind of like filler)
mushooms - cooked
carrots
peas
a sauce with visible bits of garlic and red pepper flake.

I just don't understand how they can turn such a variety of fresh tasting dishes around so fast.

dense, hot oil, big cooking pans(woks) high heat. Lots of veggie/meat prepping,

Pre-recorded sizzles.

EDIT- Which would make a great band name, by the way.

I have no idea how to post youtube vids on the planet; I can do it other places, but not here. Sigh....:(
